how did mesopotamia's government (decentralized) influence the lives of people in this civilization?

By creating a strict written law to be followed

Dividing their territory into smaller city states

Explanation:

Rather than having one central government taking care of all regions, Mesopotamian government separated their region into smaller city states.

These city states have their own leader and the leader have the authority to create decisions to manage its own territory. This took off a lot of workload from the central government.

On top of that, Mesopotamia enacted a written law that must be followed by all the people in the region. So even though each city states have different local government program, the people still abide to the same higher law.

first, the romans stayed isolated because they had to defend their own territories from neighboring cities that were harassing them, like the etruscans. second, once the romans managed to defeat their neighbors, and started to expand their territory, they started to build roads and bridges. finally, now that the romans have covered their territory with roads functioning as highways, they could mobilize their legions faster to assemble larger military units in a specific place
