Line 1:
A '''body corporate''' is the English legal term for a [[corporation]]. It is distinct from a [[natural person]], although it has many of the same legal rights.
 
A body corporate can be either a [[corporation sole]] (consisting of a single person) or a [[corporation aggregate]] (consisting of two or more persons). The UK [[Crown]] is an example of a corporation sole, whereas [[Sainsburys|J Sainsbury plc]] is an example of a corporation aggregate.
