Slavery divided the political parties in the mid-1800s. Even the small parties couldn't agree on how to handle it. The major parties had attempted to continue slavery despite losing and outlawing the slave trade. The other side had attempted to wipe it out and simply confine it. The Republican party would work to abolish slavery, while the Democratic Party would work to find ways to continue to oppress African Americans.
Although you did not specify the civilizations you should compare Hammurabi's code with, here I leave relevant points about the code that may help you:
- Hammurabi's code is a collection of laws carved in a stone pillar during the Babylonian emperor Hammurabi's realm. After conquering the land within the Mesopotamian valley, he needed to unify the territory of his empire under the same laws. It is the first written code of laws.
- As laws were written, judges could not change them at the moment. This was a guarantee of justice for citizens. Other civilizations like the Romans and Hebrews also had written codes of laws.
- The code includes mainly a list of crimes and punishments established for them. The punishments defer according to the social rank of the victim and the criminal.
- Punishments could be payments in species or metals, but also corporal, following the "eye for an eye" criteria of justice, or Tallion's law. This concept of justice can also be found in old Hebrew tradition, and in the Quran.
