In my opinion, the Government had the most influence on the Mesopotamian society. The Government impacted mesopotamian society by controlling all of the characteristics of civilization. The government impacted the mesopotamian society because their king can pass through major laws for their city or state that can affect equality and social rights. These major laws can effect the mesopotamian society by controlling there rights and taxing policies.

“At this time, kings ruled and made laws for only their city-states, not the entire Mesopotamian region."

the government is the most important civilization due to power and laws that the people of mesopotamia had to follow. This supports my claim because with these major laws the king makes, can affect all characteristics of civilization by the control that government has.

This shows that the king gained his friends' trust then backstabbed them to expand his land. This shows that the government has an impact on mesopotamia more than the other character civilizations because the government needs to have good military strategy or mesopotamia gets ruled by another empire. If the king makes poor decisions and gets in a conflict with another empire it can lead to war. If you don't have a good military base then the other empire can take your land.

"The Code of Hammurabi was meant to ensure that people would fix the harm they caused. However, people were treated differently based on their social class."

Though Hammurabi's law code was strict, living in babylon would have been unfair because if you were in a lower class than others, you would be treated differently. Women, slaves, commonors, and the lower class wouldn't be treated equally and they would have harsh punishments for death. In addition to that, hammurabi's code is unfair because they didn't have many rights. This shows that the mesopotamian society is more affected by the government by showing that the unfair laws that the king made did not show equality and showed conflict. This led to no peace.

You may think food supply is the most important characteristics of civilization but your wrong. " For example, they built canals to control water flow and levees to protect crops from flooding. " This quote shows that they made canals and Levees. Without the government, they couldn't have made the canals because the government controls the resources. This shows that government is the most important and they can control major laws.
