Based on the findings presented in this previous discussion, it can be seen that the Cypriot legal system is indeed a unique system that is primarily based on the English common law. The history of Cyprus and its large culture that has been influenced by past colonies has without a doubt led to an impact on the country. This has resulted in the modern Cypriot law to be stemmed from a wide variety of roots that have constructed the law of Cyprus today. Moreover, the EU membership has also led to further implications on the laws of Cyprus. Accordingly, European laws over power own domestic laws and if any of the laws of Cyprus contradict with EU laws then the domestic law cannot prevail.
