The main reason Americans wanted to change the Articles of Confederation was

History
1 answer:
EleoNora [17]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The correct answer is C, <em>to form a stronger government</em>.

Explanation:

It was during the Shays' Rebellion (1786-1787) that became evident for conservatives that the Articles of Confederation had to be changed.

This rebellion attacked many courts and was widely feared as a moment where masses took for themselves the values of freedom in a way that endangered property and order in the newly born country.

That's why in this context figures like Alexander Hamilton argued for a strong government: to deal with situations like this that threatened the status quo. According to him and other Federalists, the Articles did not have tools for this kind of situation as it was a document where the central government barely had any power.

Explain the Code of Hammurabi and name three of its laws.
erastova [34]

The Code of Hammurabi is a well-preserved Babylonian code of law of ancient Mesopotamia, dating back to about 1754 BC (Middle Chronology). It is one of the oldest deciphered writings of significant length in the world. The sixth Babylonian king, Hammurabi, enacted the code, and partial copies exist on a seven and a half foot stone stele and various clay tablets. The code consists of 282 laws, with scaled punishments, adjusting "an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth" (lex talionis)[1] as graded depending on social status, of slave versus free man or woman.[2]

Nearly one-half of the code deals with matters of contract, establishing, for example, the wages to be paid to an ox driver or a surgeon. Other provisions set the terms of a transaction, establishing the liability of a builder for a house that collapses, for example, or property that is damaged while left in the care of another. A third of the code addresses issues concerning household and family relationships such as inheritance, divorce, paternity, and sexual behavior. Only one provision appears to impose obligations on an official; this provision establishes that a judge who reaches an incorrect decision is to be fined and removed from the bench permanently.[3] A few provisions address issues related to military service.

The code was discovered by modern archaeologists in 1901, and its editio princeps translation published in 1902 by Jean-Vincent Scheil. This nearly complete example of the code is carved into a basalt stele in the shape of a huge index finger,[4] 2.25 m (7.4 ft) tall. The code is inscribed in the Akkadian language, using cuneiform script carved into the stele. It is currently on display in the Louvre, with replicas in the Oriental Institute at the University of Chicago, the Clendening History of Medicine Library & Museum at the University of Kansas Medical Center, the library of the Theological University of the Reformed Churches in the Netherlands, the Pergamon Museumof Berlin, the Arts Faculty of the University of Leuven in Belgium, and the National Museum of Iran in Tehran.
