Answer:

First ever laws

Step-by-step explanation:

These were some of the first ever WRITTEN laws, and most likely inspired many other civilizations to have a code of laws like this one. Crime was reduced, as some punishment for the crimes tended to be brutal, and everyone benefited as a result of Hammurabi's Code.
