Why were Sumerian city-states considered theocracies?
Sumerian city-states were considered theocracies because their governments were closely intertwined with religion, where priests and priestesses held significant power and authority. The rulers were often seen as representatives of the gods or even as divine themselves, which legitimized their rule. This fusion of religious and political authority meant that laws, governance, and societal norms were heavily influenced by religious beliefs and practices. Consequently, the city's prosperity and well-being were thought to depend on the favor of the gods, further reinforcing the theocratic structure.
