6 0

Answer:

To establish and maintain a sense of uniform order amongst the people

Explanation:

So, as societies grew in both population and in land occupation, it became harder to regulate the civil obligations of being a "good citizen." The earliest written "code of law" is Code of Hammurabi, which established the "eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth" as a law to follow for a peaceful society. The use of an established set of law's helped to create a universal understanding of what was expected to be followed by all men throughout a large area ruled by one "king" which also helped to unify those city-states under one identity. His codes also laid out the punishment for breaking said law so there would be no confusion or room of interpretation on consequences of actions.

Which undemocratic feature of american society did progressives not take steps to correct
Verizon [17]
There were many such things, for example, systematic racism. African-Americans were still living in poverty or didn't have civil rights and segregation was strong. They could only join white communities if they were musicians or things like that where they would have to play for white guests of parlors. It wasn't until the 60s that the African-American people were given their civil rights.
