Sumerian city-states were independent political entities centered around a city and its surrounding lands. Each city-state had its own ruler, government, and defensive walls for protection. They often engaged in alliances and conflicts with neighboring city-states.
The isolation of Sumerian city-states was largely due to the geographical barriers such as rivers, marshlands, and deserts that separated them. This made communication and trade between the city-states more challenging, leading to a sense of independence and distinct identity for each city-state. Additionally, competition for resources and power further contributed to their isolation as they sought to assert their dominance over neighboring city-states.
