The Gideon v. Wainwright court case changed the legal system we know because it re-established the idea that those who cannot afford attorneys need to be provided one. The 6th amendment of the constitution says that individuals have a right to a jury trial as well as the right to an attorney. This case reassures that an attorney should be appointed regardless of what type of crime is committed.

The Supreme Court justices, who voted unanimously for Gideon, discussed how appointing an attorney to those who cannot afford one is part of creating a fair and equal justice system.

What relationship did the government have with religion in mesopotamia?
Rom4ik [11]

Religion played a decisive role in both governments of Ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia.

In Ancient Egypt, the Pharaoh was believed to have descended from the realm of the Gods. His role was that of an intermediary between them and the people of the empire. His obligation was to sustain rituals for the gods in order to maintain an order in the universe. Massive amounts of resources were also assigned to the creation of temples where these rituals were held.

In Mesopotamia, the King was considered as a religious leader. He exercised the cult with the help of specialists whose task was to serve as an intermediary between men and the gods. These group of specialists included a "supervising" priest for purification against demons, priests for the purification of the temple, and priests for appeasing the anger of the gods and its subsequent wrath.
