Ancient Civilization 
Mesopotamia
Location: On page 6 it said that mesopotamia lies between two rivers. also we know that"most of ancient mesopotamia lay within the border of modern iraq." The region is called the cradle of civilization. (steele 6)
government: Page 14 it says "The sumerians worshiped many gods and goddesses." Also on page 14, it says the night sky was cows of sins. The sumerians believed in gods and goddesses, demons, ghosts, and spirits. (Steele 14)
Religion:
For much of its history, Mesopotamia was not a single, unified empire but a collection of independent city-states, each with its own ruler. These early governments were theocracies where a king or priest-king ruled as a representative of the city's god. Eventually, certain rulers, like Sargon of Akkad and Hammurabi of Babylon, established larger empires that centralized power and created standardized codes of law. (Steele 22)
Writing: In mesopotamia people had written in a way called cuneiform. I know this because on page 12 it said. "The Sumerians devised the world's first script or writing." Also they would write on and draw symbols mostly on clay. (Steele 12)
Architecture: In mesopotamia they made architecture called Ziggurats. I know this because on page 24 it says "They were massive terrorist platforms made of bricks" They were 3-4 stories tall. (Steele 28)
Art: The author wrote that the Mesopotamians were really good with technology and crafts. Also we know that " Using low, horizontal looms, women wove cloth from wool, then linen, and, from the eighth century BCE, cotton." They also were working with a lot of metal work (Steele 44)
