The correct answer to this open question is the following.

The character of Gilgamesh suggests that Sumerian society could be violent in that in refects the customs, values, and behavior of the people of Mesopotamia.

We are referring to one of the oldest pieces of literature known to man: the Epic of Gilgamesh, from the times of Mesopotamia.  Gilgamesh was the King of Uruk. He was half man and half God. People feared him because he committed all kind of injustices and ruled over the land as a powerful king that had no compassion. People trusted the Gods and feared them in a kind of love and hate relationship.

 The character of Gilgamesh suggests that Sumerian society could be violent because he himself used to practice some very unsual activities.

For example, one of the practices he acostumed was having the "droit de seigneur", this means that he granted himself the right to bed a servant or a citizen woman before they got married with the groom. He was a very cruel and lusty king.

The crafters of the United States constitution wanted a system of government wherein the people had a voice in their ruling but at the same time, the crafters were worried that the people would rule like a mob without checks and that the majority would persecute the minorities in the country.

Both the Federalists and the Anti-Federalists agreed that there were dangers inherent in the system, which is why the crafters created a system with checks and balances on the lawmaking process and a bicameral legislature with a body, the US Senate, whose job is to ensure that cooler heads always prevail.

This shows the influence of thinkers like Edmund Burke, a British philosopher, who advocated for incremental change.

The cost of this is that things do move slowly and sometimes the legislatures misses the ball. The response to this has been a stronger Executive branch with the power to create temporary executive orders but the process is still slow.

The benefit is an incremental system that has lasted longer than any system of Government in the world.

The question is whether or not America's system can adequately work in a time when new challenges and threats are coming every minute.
