I think eventually patterns start to emerge — so eventually, you start reading about federalization of Chinese Law and you’re “ah, this is like German Unification with a few key differences.”
While you do find rare outliers — the Ottoman legal system continues to fascinate me ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Millet_(Ottoman_Empire) ) — you eventually find that there’s only a few major ways that legal systems have been formulated at larger modern country scales than earlier local scales.
Science, art, and sport are also ones I’ve delved into incidentally. And there’s also some patterns there.
Ahh, great question.
