All of these statements are not completely accurate. Sumer is important in world history because it was the world's first civilization. It emerged in the southern region of Mesopotamia (modern-day Iraq) around 4,500 BCE. Sumerian society developed many significant advancements, such as the invention of writing (cuneiform script), the establishment of complex city-states with organized governments, the development of irrigation systems, and the creation of a thriving trade network. These achievements laid the foundation for subsequent civilizations and influenced various aspects of human society, including law, religion, and urban planning.
