The Rise of Civilizations

Civilizations began to develop

during the Neolithic period when
the early humans learned to
settle in an area to domesticate
plants and animals for survival.

11
The Development of States

In the Sumer region of Mesopotamia, at around 4000 BC, two important developments
took place that influenced the sociopolitical process of the early civilizations.

The rise of city-states The invention of writing

Oligarchy

Democratization

Tyranny

Tyrant used to be a positive term for a Greek leader. Tyrants in ancient Greece
were rulers who held power despite not being part of the hereditary aristocracy.

15
Democratization

Birth of Democracy

Free and slave-owning men proposed that power must account for the citizens of
the state. This led Greek city-states to create a more broad-based constitution,
eventually developing the democratic city-states.
