History
1 answer:
Dimas [21]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

it included a list of punishments

Explanation:

Unlike earlier laws, it was written in Akkadian, the daily language of Babylon, and could therefore be read by any literate person in the city. Earlier Sumerian law codes had focused on compensating the victim of the crime, but the Code of Hammurabi instead focused on physically punishing the perpetrator.

To what extent was john brown's raid on harpers ferry a success or failure
morpeh [17]

In theory a total failure as he failed to start a war to free all enslaved men from bondage and was swiftly dealt with by Robert E Lee, his 2nd Jeb Stuart and their Marines and the local Militia.

But it ended up succeeding after all the raiders had already been killed in action or executed.

Browns death riled up an already angry North and more people saw slavery as a southern blight on society.

So as John Brown's body lied in the grave, abolitionists everywhere were mobilizing and spreading.

In the Northern states, West coast and Midwest Brown became a martyr for the abolition of an Evil which cost him his life, while in the south he was a Terrorist a crazy fanatic who stormed a small town killing 6 civilians and a marine.


He was further enshrined as an American hero during the Civil War when he became a rallying, and battle cry for union soldiers especially African american units.


So no his original plan didnt work but posthomously he stirred up division which in turn saw his dream true.

Andrei [34K]

Answer:

The racial violence used against the African American during these events raised the need to relook at the civil rights amendments.

Explanation:

The Colfax massacre refers to racial bloodshed in the American society in 1873 where a confrontation of a black militia and white extremist groups claimed the lives of around 150 blacks after they surrendered. Memphis Massacre is another example of the racial violence on the American soil in which the lives of 46 blacks and 2 white inhabitants of the region of Memphis was lost. These incidents raised concern over the safeguarding of the African Americans and the laws made for their protection.
