AP World History The Differences between ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia There are many differences between the two civilizations like Government, Burials , Technology, and language. Now these can be the same but there not because these civilizations had there own ways on how to control what they believed and how they would sustain themselves.
Now the Burial techniques that the Egyptians used was very clever and like professionally done because they thought in the after life that they would need there body to use so they would mummify only the top classes like the pharaohs and priest but if you had a lot of money then you could actually get mummified properly if you were a rich merchant for example.
Now for the Mesopotamians it was different because they found there bodies wrapped around in carpets and the children’s bodies were found in big jars and some had precious artifacts and believed to have been belonged to a royal family of some sort. So to say the Egyptians knew how to mummify really good almost too good but that’s what they have to learn to get it right for there pharaoh and other high level classes.
Second, with technology Egypt has I would probably not call real technology but more in the academics but used in a way for technology but ancient Egypt achieved a relatively high standard of productivity and sophistication. And the Egyptians created there own alphabet and decimal system and by doing so with this kind of knowledge they could have used the math to make any type of technological weapon or tool. For the Mesopotamians they invented many technologies like metal and copper-working, glass and lamp making, textile control, water storage, flood control and irrigation.

Third, with the language the Mesopotamians the earliest language that they wrote was Sumerian, for to say a agglutinative language isolate. And along with Sumerian, Semitic dialects were also spoken in early Mesopotamia. Then Acadian, came to be the dominant language during the Acadian empire and the Assyrian empires, but Sumerian was retained for administration, religious, literary, and scientific purposes.
For the Egyptians the Egyptian language is a northern Afro-Asiatic which was closely related to the Berber Semitic languages and it has the second longest history of any language after Sumerian language and also Egypt transferred there language into hieroglyphics. So Egyptians and Mesopotamians have a little different languages except for the one they have in common is the Semitic language for a little part of it.
Fourth, the government in Egypt was fairly simple the one on top was of course the Pharaoh and he had complete control of the land and resources, and not only that he was the supreme military commander and also head of the government and who also relied on a bureaucracy of officials to manage his affairs, and in charge of his administration was his second in command the vizier who acted as the kings representative and coordinated land surveys, the treasury, building projects, the legal systems, and the archives and this was also related to social classes like the pharaoh, then the priest, merchants, skilled workers and farmers, but slaves were not considered a class in this case, as for the Mesopotamians it was really simple they believed in kings and queens and that they descended form the city of gods but unlike the ancient Egyptians, they never believed their kings were real gods but most kings just named themselves “king of the universe” or “great king” and also another common name was “Shepherd” as for the king had to look after their people.
