Ida B. Wells responded to the question of race relations by documenting the lynchings taking place in the United States. This was usually done by white mobs who claimed they were lynching blacks because of criminal acts they had done, although Ida B.

<em>"The Spanish, by contrast, were more exploitative, choosing to harvest the wealth of the land and ship it back home. As a result of these two approaches, it was the English colonies which tended to become more prosperous.

But both were successful (the most successful of the conquistadors) at completing the missions they set out to. With inferior numbers, each separately brought down the two most powerful empires in the New World at that time."</em>

The Code of Hammurabi was one of the earliest and most complete written legal codes and was proclaimed by the Babylonian king Hammurabi, who reigned from 1792 to 1750 B.C. Hammurabi expanded the city-state of Babylon along the Euphrates River to unite all of southern Mesopotamia. The Hammurabi code of laws, a collection of 282 rules, established standards for commercial interactions and set fines and punishments to meet the requirements of justice. Hammurabi’s Code was carved onto a massive, finger-shaped black stone stele (pillar) that was looted by invaders and finally rediscovered in 1901.
