''Furs'' of Valencia (, ) were the laws of the Kingdom of Valencia during most of Middle Ages and Early modern Europe. The laws were a series of charters which, altogether, worked similarly as a modern Constitution does now. Thus, they defined the position, and the checks and balances between the Royal House, the nobility, the Catholic ecclesiastic and the judicial procedures. The first codifications are based in the Usages of Barcelona, Costums of Lleida, and the ''Furs'' of Aragon. It was promulgated by the first King of Valencia, James "the Conqueror", in 1261 at the newly created Valencian Parliament; he then subjected the title of King of Valencia to an oath of office before the Parliament, sworn on the ''Furs''. The ''Furs'' were valid for more than four centuries, until it was abolished by means of the Nueva Planta decrees signed by Philip V of Castile in 1707. Recently, following the agreed amendment to the Statute of Autonomy of the Valencian Community in 2006, some distinct usages of the Civil law used by the ''Furs'' are scheduled to regain binding legal authority in this territory. ==See also== * Kingdom of Valencia * List of Valencian monarchs * Generalitat Valenciana * Valencian Parliament 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Furs of Valencia」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
