Why did Hammurabi think his empire needed a code of law?
To bring justice and peace to his people.In Hammurabi's own words on the tablet: "[the gods} Anu and Bel Marduk called by name me, Hammurabi, the exalted prince, who feared Marduk, the patron god of Babylon, to bring about the rule in the land." Hammurabi himself doesn't get more specific than that.

Which it did, by all accounts.
