fundamental lsws of the republic
Came across rhis while clicking around recently. Both you and I worked on ot so it's probably at least half right, but it was a while ago so we should probably check it. Makes sense that there would still be fundamental laws even after it wasn't a monarcht, though, right? It's more surprising that there were some before the revolution. Anyway, consider this a note to us both.Elinruby (talk) 22:02, 4 July 2023 (UTC)

 * completely different topics. The topic of that article concerns which written laws and documents of France should be considered "of constitutional force" (valeur constitutionnelle) in the present day, and is essentially a debate about the content of the constitutional block. They are all written documents. This article is about unwritten, customary laws from the Middle Ages, about inheritance and legitimacy of the French crown. There are still some traces of unwritten, customary law that have an effect on modern jurisprudence, but they have nothing to do with the constitutional block. So although they are two completely separate topics, the superficial similarity of the titles might imply that hatnotes should be added to both, once this draft is moved to main space to avoid possible confusion, so that was a really good catch to identify them.
