The Tang Code (唐律) was the criminal or penal code established during the Tang Dynasty in China. Supplemented by civil statutes and regulations, it became the basis for later dynastic codes not only in China but elsewhere in East Asia. The Code synthesised Legalist and Confucian of law, and is considered one of the greatest achievements of traditional Chinese law.
