Can somebody please help me. I need an important characteristic of a civilization, and please explain why it was important.
 
Social interactions- it is the most important component of a civilization because it dictates the structure of all other occurrences within a society. Economics, marriage, political power, education, religion, you name it- it all boils down to how people respond to others.
 
1. Urban society: Living together in communities.
2. Religion: Beliefs that provide answers to “unanswerable” questions.
3. Literacy: The ability to read and write.
4. Government: Having a set of rules, leaders or organization to society
5. Specialization: Using unique skills to benefit all.
6. Social classes: Groups of people with common characteristics.
7. Tool-making: The ability to problem-solve.
8. Concept of time: Understanding of patterns like the seasons, sunrise and sunset or tides can be used to your benefit.
9. Leisure: Recognizing the value of the arts and entertainment.
10. Education/criticism: Striving to improve as an individual or as a culture.
