Answer 1

C

Step-by-step explanation:

The Corpus juris civilis (Body of Civil Law) was important to the Byzantine world because it was a codification- listing and detailing- of all of the laws of the empire. Therefore, it allowed Byzantine citizens to know what law governed them. This was a major issue, since many laws had changed over the centuries and had not been properly written down.
