Answer:

Mesopotamia and Indus Valley Civilization are oldest civilizations of world,There was a time when these civilizations prospered and lived with glory,but as time changes its course and these civilizations disappeared but left its signs,instead of lot of similarity these two civilization had some contrasting features which are followings:-

1.Economies

Both civilization had traded with each other because there were Indu valley civilization's seals found in mesopotamia at the time of excavation, Mesopotamian were exporter of food grains & textiles and harrapan were exporter of copper,gold and ivory made handicrafts products.

2.Political

Mesopotamians were ruled by priest king and his rule were accepted by everyone,

he is known to be divine by the people,he lead the administration,army and settled disputes.he is to perform certain religious rituals as well. where as in or any kind of priesly ,there is no proof of kingship or priestly management.

3.Religion

because harrapan inscriptions are not yet fully deciphered we know very little about their religion but stil it indicates that both the civilization were following the polytheistic religion.where Mesopotamian had a built a temple for worshipping the gods but harrapan has worshiped only nature forces such as raining god Indra and Fire,fire altars have been found in harrapan culture.

Mesopotamian and harrapa both had different class of people,higher class includes priest and higher level administrators and middle class includes merchants or traders,incase of lower class mesopotamia had slaves but in case of harrapa lower class people works as servant or doing low level of works which no other class people wanted to do,mesopotamians were used to give freedom to women in their society,women used to participate in all fields but still they were not equal to men,incase of harrapa, patriarchal society were formed where men were the decision makers.

5.Archtect

Harrapan were more advanced in town planning comapare to mesopotamians,they had developed better drainage and sewage systems which can be seen in present day as well.
