The Code of Hammurabi was a set of laws, 282 to be specific. These laws were carved into a stone structure and put up for everyone to see. The Code's were to maintain people's rights, holding the famous saying of "an eye for an eye."

The system was harsh, but not violent.

With such a strict system, this helped Hammurabi maintain power. With the consideration of people's rights as well, this allowed him to consolidate the power.

Hope this helps!
