Dear Classmates, You should know that I am right and Gilgamesh is wrong. Egypt is better than Mesopotamia. I know this because Mesopotamia is old and boring. Why else would it be called Mess-opotamia? I will explain that Egypt has nicer places to live, more resources, better clothes and makes better use of water. First off, Egypt is better because our houses are nicer. Mesopotamia houses are made out of reeds while ours are made out of 1 real bricks so the houses in Egypt the houses will not catch fire as easily. Plus my mom said that their houses are small. The second reason Egypt is better is that we have more resources. Mesopotamia probably did not have anything and we have all a) kinds of resources. The third reason I like my land is our clothes are so hip. A study of ancient people showed that 3 out of 4 people liked Egyptian clothes better than Mesopotamian clothes. Plus my outfit is more colorful than Gilgamesh’s robe. The final reason that we are better is that we only have one river 4 but we know how to use it more efficiently than Mesopotamia, I bet our canals have faster currents. Now you see that the place I am from and love very much is better than Mesopotamia, I miss Egypt so much.
