There are eight features that are commonly cited as characteristics of civilization. All eight of them could be involved in some way in the development of a public work such as a wall or a road.

Advanced cities: Cities are very large settlements. In order to cope with their large populations, cities tend to have advanced infrastructure for housing, food production, communication, transportation, etc. Large public works such as roads contribute to the development of cities. On the other hand, the existence of cities makes it easier for those projects to be carried out.

Well-organized government: Large public projects require careful planning and financing. They also require supervision. A well-organized government can carry out these responsibilities.

Distinct social classes: Social class could be reflected in public works in several ways. For example, groups of people living near these landmarks could belong to a particular social class. Also, the tasks necessary for the construction of these works could be divided in terms of class.

Writing: Writing is involved in all stages of construction, from designing the structures, to obtaining permits, to communicating the plans to the general population.

Art and architecture: Art and architecture would be involved in designing any type of structure to varying degrees.

Public works: Any type of structure meant to be used by the general population of a community, such as a protective wall or a road, is consider a public work.

Job specialization: The people involved in the project would all have distinct, specific tasks, such as engineers, designers, builders, etc.

Religion: Although not the most obvious feature, religion could potentially be involved in the public work. For example, the building could be a designated place of prayer, or the calendar the construction follows could be based on a particular religion.

Discuss how political scientists attempt to quantify data, manipulate data statistically, and attempt to validate hypotheses
Contact [7]
There are a few ways that this can be done. I will list the ones I know off the top of my head, as this is a broad question. I will be describing this as if the reader is a political scientist so don't take it personally, it's just so you can better understand.

Cherry Picking: Say you want to get a poll. Don't go to an area where there is a majority of the working class. You wan't to go to areas that are high on welfare, stock brokers, corporate etc. You can best find these in big cities like New York, Orlando, so on. That way, when people see the polls, they will look at what are demographic is, giving them the sense that we are popular party.

Fabrication: Don't worry about the legitimacy. Most people just want some sort of facts or explanation, and if we make one up that it is believable for most people, we are good. So long as they don't look at the actual ice caps and the temperature around the world, as far as they know Global Warming is a thing, *cough* I mean, sorry not Global Warming, Climate Change, it's totally different *wink, wink*.

Censorship: So long as no one sees any contradicting evidence to our polls, they are good. Same thing with Climate Change. If however something does come up we need to treat is as if it is absurd. Conspiracy theorist!  But even then we need to make sure that it stays away from public eye, and public opinion. 

Hope this helps, don't want to keep you waiting much longer.
