Question

How did religion impact civilization?

Answer 1

Religions have shaped many civilizations for years. A religion can shape the government and how it runs. For example, if the civilization believes in a god, they might have a king. The god “chose” the king to rule everyone. Religion also shapes society. In a caste system, Hinduism, you are born into your cast. Based on your family, wealth, you can be in the higher or lower classes. Religion shapes punishment as well. Some religions believe you should be punished in different ways. Different holidays are made for different religions. For example, Christians celebrate Christmas, or how Jews celebrate Yom Kippur.

Hope this gives enough info.
