I think that the value in the reason why the punishments for the crime was known to all in the Hammurabi code was so that it would prevent society from descending into chaos and disorder.
<h3>What was the Hammurabi code?</h3>
The Babylonian monarch Hammurabi, who ruled from 1792 to 1750 B.C., established the Code of Hammurabi, one of the first and most comprehensive written law systems. Along the Euphrates River, Hammurabi developed the city-state of Babylon to encompass all of southern Mesopotamia.
The 282 rules that make up the Hammurabi code of laws established norms for business dealings and defined fines and penalties to satisfy the demands of justice. A large, finger-shaped black stone stele (pillar) with Hammurabi's Code inscribed on it was plundered by invaders and only recently found in 1901.
Diorite, a sturdy but extremely challenging stone to carve, was used to create the black stone stele that holds the Code of Hammurabi.

An Order-in-Council signed by King George III on July 20, 1764, said that the boundary between New Hampshire and New York is the west bank of the river. The order was intended to settle a dispute between New York and New Hampshire in which each claimed the territory that later became the state of Vermont. The disputed territory had been governed for 15 years as a de facto part of New Hampshire, but the king's order awarded it to New York. On January 15, 1777, Vermont issued its declaration of independence, creating the independent Vermont Republic. On August 20 and 21, 1781, Congress expressed conditions that must be met before the then-still unrecognized but de facto independent state could be admitted into the Union. Among the conditions was that Vermont must give up its claims to territory east of the river. On February 22, 1782, Vermont's legislature complied, and the Supreme Court's opinion in 1933 cited that act.
A:centralized power:) lmk if that was right
Answer:
Explanation:
This is tough and requires a level of interpretation. I will refer to the modifications in the box as 1-3 in the order they are listed and the possible answers I will refer as a-d in the order they are listed. Lets analyze:
First the question; it's asking us, based on 1-3, which one of a-d are the most true to answer the question, "why did the colonist modify the environment?"
I will start with what is most false and work to find our answer. B is not the answer. Nothing in 1, 2, or 3 applies specifically to protection.
C is not the best choice. While 1 and 3 could apply, 2 simply does not.
D is a tough one. It could be argued that the impact of all 3 answers are to encourage development of the trade we with England, but that is relying on outside information not provided to us. The statements 1, 2 and 3 have no specific mention of britain or trading.
That leaves A. 1 says clearing forests for lumber. Lumber is an economic good. 2 is also a economic good. 3 applies to transportation of goods as well as the town's that are needed for people to live and trade goods and services.
I believe answer A is the best choice.
