Answer:

City, laws, justice, kings.

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this question, you must first know what a noun is, which is a person, place, or thing. Look through the list, and you will find out that expected is not a person, place, or thing; it is a verb.

Now you're left with Mesopotamia, city, laws, justice, and kings. A quick tip amongst nouns is that capitalized and eponymous (something that is given a name to) nouns are most probably proper nouns, which is not what we're looking for here. Cross out Mesopotamia, and you are finished.

Hope this helps! :)
