Sumerian city-states were ruled by councils elected by the citizens.

A.
True

B.
False

Answer 1

What do you think it is?

Answer 2

I think its False.

Answer 3

thats right

Answer 4

Sumer, the first civilization in history, was made up of kingships. Each city-state was an entity, ruled over by a king. Cities such as Ur or Ninevah were examples. That area has never known democracy since the time of the Sumerians. That's why it's so difficult to put democracy in place there now (Iraq).

Answer 5

answer is false

Answer 6

I would say you are correct.

"The government of Sumerian cities more or less was closely linked to religion. The leader of a city ruled by divine right (the people believed that the gods gave their kings permission to rule the city). Along with the kings, there were also a group of high ranking priests that influenced state affairs. There was also a noble class based on kinship (family ties) to the king."
