First Ebla Dynasty:

In 3100 BC, Sakume established the First Dynasty of Ebra. This time is also slightly earlier than the establishment of the First Dynasty of Egypt, indicating that it developed at about the same time as the Egyptian civilization. It also shows that Syria is also one of the cradles of human civilization. This was the early Bronze Age.

The Egyptian civilization is said to be a sub-civilization of the Sumerian civilization, but it is not too far behind in time, but the end of his previous dynasty is too late, and it can be regarded as a brother civilization of the Sumerian civilization, and the Ebra civilization is the sub-civilization of the real Sumerian civilization.

The most striking feature of the First Ebra Dynasty was the participation of women in politics.

The government consists of the king, the chief minister (the prime minister) who leads the Council of Elders (ABBU), and the Ministry of Administration (the State Council), forming a balance of power in three carriages. For the sake of ease of understanding, the following is directly explained by the Prime Minister and the State Council.

The State Department is located inside the Acropolis of Ebrah.

The State Council is made up of 13 ministers, each with jurisdiction over officials ranging from 400 to 800. In total, there are 11,700 officials in the State Department.

In the capital, every four districts are governed by a competent ombudsman and a number of representatives, and the administration is relatively strict. Small cities are governed by the governor, who is under the jurisdiction of the prime minister.

The Prime Minister is the most powerful official under the King, and most affairs, including military affairs, are handled by the Prime Minister, although the King is consulted on major matters. So even those who work in the Prime Minister's Office have enormous power,

Although the king is the final arbiter, it is basically the queen who presides over all the affairs of state. The queen can play an important role in government and religious affairs.

The queen will know the status of the government's affairs in real time, so that she can share them with the king, similar to the role of the secretary general of the presidential palace, although it is only a report, but in fact everyone knows that the secretary general represents the king, so the power is unlimited. At the same time, the crown prince is involved in domestic affairs, and the second prince is involved in foreign affairs, so as not to make the power of the prime minister out of control. That is, in domestic affairs, the prime minister is the number one and the crown prince is the second in command, and in foreign affairs, the prime minister is the number one and the second prince is the second in command.

During the First Dynasty, the royal palace controlled the domestic economy, but wealthy families managed their finances without government interference. The economic system was a form of redistribution, and the royal palace continued to distribute food to workers who lost their jobs because of the seasons (e.g., winter).

Women enjoy a special status and can receive the same salary as men and can join important positions and even important government institutions. If he is disregarded, he will naturally have the support of the queen.

The royal palace was able to adopt such a planned economy-like approach because of the vast trading network established by merchants centered on Ebra, which allowed Ebra to continue to prosper.

Ebra was able to reach Cyprus via the port of Ugalit, but most of the trade could be carried by ship through the dug canal to the Mesopotamian city of Kish, and then to other places, even through the Persian Gulf to India and then to Afghanistan.

This network of transactions was confirmed by archaeologists discovering Sumerian, Cypriot, Egyptian and even as far away Afghanistan in the ruins of Ebla's palaces.

The most important of these trade objects were Sumerian cities, while the main local trade commodity in Ebra was probably wood cut from the nearby mountains, and handicrafts also appear to be a major export.

In Ebla there is something similar to Egypt, where there are pantheons. During the First Dynasty, the Pantheon was dedicated to the indigenous gods of Ebla and the Sumerian gods.

The patron deity of the city of Ebla, Kulakura, is the native god of the indigenous people, with his consorts Palama, Lasap and his consort Atama, the Syrian goddess Ishara, the patron goddess of the royal family, Tamu Damu, the local god of Ebra, Nitakule, the Sumerian god Ishtar (Eanna), the sun goddess Utu Utu, Ashtapi and the sun goddess Hibish.

In addition, there are other gods, including the craftsman god, the Venus god, the mountain god, the morning star, and the evening star. The Eblans also deified the dead king.
