Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
(Briefly explain why you chose it, why it matters, and what your preliminary impression of it was.)

I chose this article because one of my majors is Law so I thought it would be useful to evaluate for this project. This article matters because the past matters, we can learn from the past law systems to be better and to fix mistakes being made again. In a age where the Legal system is so important learning about it accurately is very imperative. My preliminary impression is that it is very well segmented, and I like how it starts with ancient times, to show the progression of the history from the beginning.

This article has a strong lead section, describing why the article is important and what the article will overall discuss. The content is really thought out and put into very well divided sections, each focusing on that sub-topic. This article does a great job at staying neutral in its writing. Everything is well cited and the pictures help to convey the information effectively. It seems to have a good amount of talk and peer review involved in the article. While I see from the Talk that their is a couple issues, I overall felt it was a good article.
