This is false.

1. In Sumerian city-states, politics and religion were intimately related. The governor was the Prince-priest. the "High priest" or "Patesi", who represented the deity. The priest administered the government of the city, the income of the temple, led the soldiers, supervised the maintenance of the canals and organized the cult. The temple then played a fundamental role. It was the axis of political, religious and also economic life.

2. With the expansion of the Sumerian cities, the administration becomes more complex and there is a change in the attributes of the Patesi, who will be dedicated exclusively to worship.

3. Military leaders converted into Kings will perform the rest of the functions. These kings will maintain the division of Mesopotamia into small states: each city, was a state in itself, with its own institutions of government, did not depend on a regional or imperial major power.

Why was joining the WTO such a major step for China? a. A few decades ago, China would not send representatives abroad b. A few

Ivenika [448]

Answer:

d. A few decades ago, China would not allow outsiders to see what it was doing.

Explanation:

Prior to joining the World Trade Organization (WTO), China wasn't open about it's economic activities or policy to other countries across the world. This simply means the Chinese government was very secretive about the happening in it's country and as such would not allow outsiders to see what it was doing or it's engagements.

However, joining the World Trade Organization (WTO) made them to be more open to other countries, which was a key factor for their unprecedented economic growth and development.

Hence, China was able to trade globally, capturing many markets and attracting foreign investment which boosted it's economy greatly.

Furthermore, China joining the WTO was at the detriment of the Western World (USA, Canada, UK, Germany etc) as it resulted in the loss of millions of jobs.
