Both could be right. Which do you think is more important? What does your book say?

This site says art and architecture.

This site says government.

I would personally think government is more important.

I tried to post a link to my book, but it won't let me
I vote for government. The first site also states that a system for administering territories is also a characteristic of civilization. That would mean a government.
That's what I think too, so after I take my test I will post the correct answer on here.
Thanks. I hope we're right.
