<span>The Code of Hammurabi is a set of rules or</span><span> </span><span>laws</span><span> </span><span>enacted by King Hammurabi of Babylon. The code governed the people living in his rapidly growing empire. By the time that Hammurabi's died, his empire included much of modern-day Iraq, extending up from the Persian Gulf along the Tigris & Euphrates rivers.</span>

There are as many as 300 laws that cover a wide variety of subjects: homicide, assault, divorce, debt, adoption, tradesman’s fees, agricultural practices, & even the brewing of beer!

The code is best known from a stele made of black diorite, more than 7 feet tall, that is now in the Louvre in Paris. The stele was found at the site of Susa, (now modern-day Iran) by excavators who were led by Jacques de Morgan in the early 20th century. Scholars believe that it was brought to Susa in the 12th century B.C. by an Elamite ruler who subsequently erased a portion of it in preparation for inscribing it himself.

The Frankish king, ____, would convert from paganism to _______________________- and establish the faith throughout his kingdom.
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

The Frankish king, Clovis, would convert from paganism to Christianity - and establish the faith throughout his kingdom. A later Frankish general named Charles Martel would repel a Muslim invasion and begin the Christian reconquest of the Iberian Peninsula.

The greatest of the Frankish rulers in Western Europe was Charlemagne The Great. In 800, the Pope crowned Charlemagne Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire. The empire would last over one thousand years, but would never achieve Charlemagne’s goal of creating a unified Christian empire.

Explanation:

Frankish Kingdom and later Empire was the largest state created after the fall of Roman Empire.

Clovis, who was the first known leader of the Merovingian dynasty converted to Christianity, but the peak of the country was during the Carolingian dynasty.

Charlemagne created an Empire that spread across most of modern Western Europe.
