The constitution is a sign of civilization Constitution is the sign of a matured nation and a rationally affluent civilization. Prime Minister Ibrahim al-Jaafari, after casting one of the first ballots in Baghdad, called Iraq’s constitutional vote as ‘early’ sign of civilization. A country that gave the world the meaning of a ‘constitutional code’ and was definitely a primary source of constitutional precedent in the 21st century is rediscovering its bond to the basic ‘code of living.’ It was here in Iraq that a seed structure was established which defined the essential relationship between the ruled and the rulers of mankind. The unearthing of rules for a tidy living today for a region that was the cradle of civilization is a story of lost opportunities over millenniums. Mesopotamia is famous for the site of some of the oldest civilizations in the world. Sumerian list of gods in cuneiform script, ca. 24th century BC and writings from Mesopotamia (Uruk, modern Warka) are among the earliest known in the world, giving Mesopotamia a reputation of being the "Cradle of Civilization". David Wilkinson has proposed that economic and military-diplomatic integration of the Mesopotamian and Egyptian civilizations resulted in the creation of what he calls the "Central Civilization" around 1500 BC. cybermusings.blogspot.com
