In an effort to make the punishment fit the crime, Hammurabi’s Code often required the criminal to receive the same injury that he or she had inflicted on a victim. Such laws may seem harsh today, but they were intended to prevent society from descending into chaos and disorder.

Based on this evidence, what might King Hammurabi have wanted to promote in society?

Answer:

its just like the saying an eye for an eye

Explanation:

he wanted to set an example for the people saying "this is whats going to happen if you don't abide by the laws" so when people were seeing this happen they thought "wow probably shouldn't do that" thus keeping order within society. Or at least most of it. Fear controls people.
