Babylonian and Sumerian societies were both advanced Mesopotamian civilizations, but they differed in their cultural developments and contributions. The Sumerians, known for their early innovations like cuneiform writing and the wheel, laid the foundation for urban civilization. In contrast, the Babylonians, particularly under King Hammurabi, are renowned for their advancements in law, literature, and centralized governance. While Sumer was characterized by city-states, Babylon emerged as a prominent empire that unified various regions under a single rule.
In the centuries BC, the Roman government generally adopted a policy of religious tolerance, allowing various cults and deities to coexist as long as they did not threaten public order or loyalty to the state. The Romans often incorporated gods and practices from conquered peoples into their own religious framework, which helped unify the empire. However, certain religions, particularly those perceived as secretive or subversive, like early Christianity, faced persecution. Overall, the state maintained a pragmatic approach, prioritizing civic duty and the worship of the Roman pantheon.
The 110's were in the second century AD.
