Government and society is different for every country, this also applies to Mesopotamia and Egypt.
In Mesopotamia, because it was a land of multiple kingdoms and empires, there were many styles of political views, and these different political views caused the want of control and to conquer their neighboring kingdoms. In Egypt, they had the upper Egypt and lower Egypt, but they were joined together during the time of pharaoh Menes, they had pharaohs, the kings and rulers of the land that were said to be gods sent to Earth in human form to rule and govern the people of the world. Though Egypt and Mesopotamia had something mutual about their social understanding, they both had a patriarchal society; in which the males were dominant over the women
