Hammurabi's Code is a set of laws dating back to the 18th century B. C.E. In the introduction to the laws, Hammurabi states his goal to “make justice visible in the land, to destroy the wicked person and the evil-doer, that the strong might not injure the weak." A copy of the collection can be found here: http://avalon. law. yale. edu/ancient/hamframe. asp. Feel free to read through some of the laws to get a better sense of them.

In a five paragraph essay, describe the purpose of writing down and organizing sets of laws, and assess Hammurabi's Code as to whether it is a just or unjust set of laws, and whether or not it accomplishes its stated purpose.

theodore roosevelt challenged william to a duel, whoever won, got their policy sent to congress. it ended up in a stalemate, and both men were injured and sent to the hospital.

it was certainly a debatable decision, mainly because it was based primarily on political - and not on legal or social - views. since the congress at that time was led by members of the republican party, and the territory that the tribes wanted to turn into an exclusively indian state was predominantly democratic, the proposal (as expressed in the constitution) did not succeed, but the constitution itself proved to be of crucial importance in the creation of the state of oklahoma, and, most importantly, it guaranteed the involvement of representatives of the indian tribes in the government of the future joint state.  

as a member of congress, i would have voted to ratify the constitution, or at least to have it tabled. ignoring it was an interested and partial decision.
