Latin? French?

Liber Sextus is "the first authentic collection of Church legislation after that of Gregory IX (1234). It was commissioned by Pope Boniface VIII in 1296 and promulgated on March 3rd, 1298, embracing some 64 years of papal and conciliar legislation."

It is my understanding that Latin doesn't have much in comon with French. Again, Spanish, Portugese, Italian and to an extent, Romanian are all languages with Latin derivatives and association. German also has similarities to Latin

Let me not agree with you, DoL (this acronym being a french word and coming from latin)!

French is a latin language as all others you cited.

Latin is one of the Indo-European languages that also includes Celtic, German, Greek and Persian.

Are you serious?? First of all, French is NOT a Latin language. Second, Greek is NOT Latin, it's a Hellenic language. Third, German is not Latin. German is very similar to Latin in its grammar and usage which is due to the Roman Empire. German, English, swedish...and so on are German Languages or Nordic. And, Lastly, Persian isn't no where near Latin.
The only languages or countries on this planet that are Latin: Romanian, Portugese, Spanish and Italian.
