Answer:

Hammurabi's code was the first written legal code and was issued by the king Hammurabi. He ruled Babylonia from 1792 to 1750 BC.  He expanded Babylon and united the southern Mesopotamia. Hammurabi's code of laws consists of 282 rules.  It set fines and punishments for justice and standardized commercial interactions. His code was carved on a black stone pillar. The pillar was rediscovered in 1901. It was carved from a single four-ton slab of diorite. This code is one of the best examples of the doctrine of <em>lex talionis </em>(An eye for an eye). the main purpose of the Code of Hammurabi was to use the political power to create common bonds among the diverse people of the society.

What is strategic about the location of the city of Khartoum?
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

Explanation:

Khartoum, Arabic Al-Khartoum city, executive capital of Sudan, just south of the confluence of the Blue and White Nile rivers. It has bridge connections with its sister towns, Khartoum North and Omdurman, with which it forms Sudan’s largest conurbation. Originally an Egyptian army camp (pitched 1821), Khartoum grew into a garrisoned army town. The Mahdists besieged and destroyed it in 1885 and killed Major General Charles George Gordon, then the British governor-general of the Sudan. Reoccupied in 1898, Khartoum was rebuilt by Governor-General Lord Kitchener and served as the seat of the Anglo-Egyptian Sudan government until 1956, when the city became the capital of the independent republic of Sudan.
