Best Answer

Hammurabi's code of laws, called the Hammurabi code, contributed to democracy even though they were related to law more than politics, because it's severity was constant

for everyone. If an aristocrat killed a peasant's brother, than that peasant had the right to kill the aristocrat's brother while he watched. This is similar to the idea of "an eye for an eye". Hope this helps!
