The ENTIRE Life of Hammurabi – The Lawgiver of Babylon

Babylon was just another city-state fighting for survival in a world of endless warfare. Then Hammurabi took the throne—and everything changed. He was a cunning diplomat, a patient strategist, and when the time came, a ruthless conqueror. But his greatest weapon wasn't an army. It was an idea. He gathered the laws of his land and carved them into stone for all to see: rich and poor, powerful and weak, bound by the same written code. Justice would no longer whisper in the ears of kings—it would stand eight feet tall in public for anyone to read. Nearly four thousand years later, his words still survive, and echoes of his principles still shape how we think about law itself. This is the story of the king who gave civilization its first rulebook.
