Hammurabi was the ruler who chiefly established the greatness of Babylon, the world's first metropolis. Hammurabi was the first ruler of the Babylonian empire. He is known for restoring order and justice to Mesopotamia.
When Hammurabi turned eighteen years old, his father became very sick. Soon his father died and young Hammurabi was crowned king of the city-state of Babylon. At this time, Babylon was a fairly small kingdom. There were many other larger kingdoms surrounding Babylon including Assyria, Mari, Larsa, and Eshnunna.
