With the forming of the Dundorfreich in 1834, a great wave of legal standartization set on, beginning with criminal law and processual law and culminating in the Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch (Book of Civil Law) after over twenty years of creative process. Important parts of Dundorfen legislation still contain regulations of these laws. However, the various Länder always maintained their own laws to an extent and, in modern federal Dundorf, still do.
