Sub-Saharan African Legislators

Sub-Saharan African Legislators gathers the legislators and statute authors of Sub-Saharan Africa represented in this subcategory, whose work drafting and enacting national statutes for their own newly independent or reforming nations built the modern statutory law of the region. Their legal systems, inherited variously from British, French and Portuguese colonial rule and adapted since independence, are grouped together here as their own region, matching the report's own proposed scheme for this subcategory.
