Answer:

The Code of Hammurabi consisted of 282 laws regarding trade, taxes, marriage, divorce, theft, slavery and debt. Many of these laws are similar, both in content and in writing, to those found in Deuteronomy and, which according to Abrahamic tradition God passed to Moses.

The code, written in Akkadian by King Hammurabi in 1750 BC, is one of the oldest and best-known legal compendiums, and one of the best-preserved specimens of its kind, as well as one of the oldest documents created in ancient Mesopotamia.

It is based on Talion Law ("eye for eye and tooth for tooth"), and is also one of the earliest examples of the principle of presumption of innocence, as it suggests that the accused had the opportunity to provide evidence.

Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer and Explanation:

a. Oliver highlights how the tax laws on products such as tea, glass, paper and painters' colors would interfere in the lives of Massachusetts Bay dwellers, because they established many businesses based on trade, which made irrational laws change the condition economics and their freedom, making them want to unite to overturn these laws, which they did not want to do in other equally irrational laws.

b. Oliver produced this text when England forced Americans to pay much higher taxes on products. This intensified the independence movements, in addition to showing how the British crown was being tyrannical and abusive.

c. Evidence used by Oliver can be seen in the lines "The Smugglers then, who were the prevailing Part of the Traders in the Capitals of the several Provinces, found it necessary for their Interest, to unite in defeating the Operation of the Act," where it shows the reason that led smugglers to help in breaking the laws, that is, it shows that conteabandistas were part of the trade and therefore were affected by taxation.
