living in the UK is such a trip because you can open legislation.gov.uk and there's a law from like 1688 that is still in force. and there's like thousands of these! i'm more used to "the oldest law still on the books is less than a century old"

https://www.legislation.gov.uk/aep/WillandMarSess2/1/2/introduction

Bill of Rights [1688]

An Act declareing the Rights and Liberties of the Subject and Setleing the Succession of the Crowne.
