Was the 'Burgundy Code' the name given to a region that was not part of the former Roman Empire (i.e. Belgium) in the 15th century, or is it more recent?

The 'Burgundy Code' is not a name given to a region that was not part of the former Roman Empire. The region referred to was the Belgian Congo (today named Guinea-Bissau). This is a larger part of the former Roman Empire, so was not part of the 'Burgundy Code' either.
