The Epic of Gilgamesh comes from ancient Mesopotamia, dating back to around 2100 BC. It is one of the oldest surviving examples of ancient literature, a compilation of poems telling the story of Gilgamesh, king of the Mesopotamian city-state Uruk.
The correct answer is D. "This was the king who knew the countries of the world"
Explanation:
"The Epic of Gilgamesh" from which the excerpt is taken, is considered as the oldest surviving literary work as it is believed this poem was written during Ancient Mesopotamia and because of this, this literary work provides key information about the civilization and especially the life of one of its leaders called Gilgamesh. In the case of the excerpt presented, the author narrates the attributes of Gilgamesh including that he was wise " was the man to whom all things were known" and handsome "he glorious sun endowed him with beauty" and his abilities as a king "this was the king who knew the countries of the world, which suggest Gilgamesh was not only admired by the people of the civilization but it was their leader and probably part of a monarchy, as in this political system the society is ruled by only one authority which is called monarch or king. Thus, the phrase that suggests Gigames ruled over a monarchy is "This was the king who knew the countries of the world", because this is the only type of political system in which there is a monarch or king.
