In what way did the justinian code advance the status of women in society?

In essence, Justinian had a wife who heavily influenced his decisions with woman in his society. Her name was Theodora, she was a woman that advocated for a lot of woman's rights. To name one of the top of my head she made it so that when a woman's husband died her dowry that was paid upon their marriage would become her property again.

Yes, reasons why is sectionalism compromise of 1850 and secession i hope this
