    EO not of the Civil Code, but of its new promulgation under the name of the Napoleonic Code. Planiol (no. 84) indicates that the words “Consul, republic, nation” were replaced by those of “Emperor, empire, State”. The text also contains two substantive changes: First, the removal of Article 2261, which applied the revolutionary calendar to the statute of limitations (to fill the resulting gap, the general statute of limitations set forth in Article 2260 was divided into two numbered paragraphs). Second, a paragraph was added to Article 896 concerning imperial entails: “The unencumbered property forming the endowment of a hereditary title that the Emperor may have established in favor of a prince or head of a family may be transmitted hereditarily as stipulated by the Imperial Act of March 30, 1806, and by the senatus consultum of the following August 14.” This latter change is perhaps symbolic of the Code's subsequent fate of yielding to referential legislation, whereas in its initial structure, the only references it accepted were either to principles of natural law or to its own provisions. It should be noted that the name "Napoleonic Code" was repealed in The title of the Napoleonic Code was established in 1814 by the Charter, and a new official edition was published in 1816, replacing the previously mentioned terms with "King, Kingdom." The title was reinstated in 1852, but the text itself remained unchanged. Since then, this designation has not been formally repealed, and Article 1 of the Code still refers to the King, the Kingdom, and the royal residence.
