Summary/Abstract: The Roman divortium is just one of the legal concepts that exhibited strong influence upon the divorce of marriage in historical context to this day (an exception being the Catholic Church's view at the Council of Trent that advocates the unresolvedness of marriage as a "sacred secret"). The monogamous marriage and the divorce of marriage that were standardized in Roman law are a legal inheritance that is also implemented in the Family Law of Macedonia. The sources of the law in the Roman law and in the contemporary Macedonian law will be compared to establish similarities and differences.
