The United States of America is a Democratic Republic. It is made of 50 states that have their own governments, but the whole country functions under a federal government. The United States of America is governed by a president, who can be replaced by a vice president if the president is unable to be president. The Speaker of the House of Commons will become the vice president if the current president is replaced by the vice president. States are also ruled by governors, mayors, and each state is represented by at least two senators. America has a constitution, which consists of a Preamble, 7 articles, and 27 amendments, in which the first ten are considered the Bill of Rights. The constitution can be changed, but has only had seventeen amendments added in over 200 years. America is also known to be the first country that had a president and was a democratic republic, as most other countries when the United States was formed functioned under a king. America also has the strongest military in the world, and has one of the strongest economies in the world. America used to be thirteen states which were ruled as colonies by England. The United States gained independence from England on July 4, 1776. American's celebrate July 4 as independence day with fireworks and family gatherings. The United States is the world's third- or fourth-largest country by total area, the world's third most populous country in the world, and the 25th most democratic country in the world.

gilgamesh is an epic hero from birth, as he's brought to the world by the hand of several gods who shaped him with the goal of saving humanity. there's a passage from the text that reads "the glorious sun shamash bestowed upon him glory; adad the terrible god of storms bestowed upon him courage. the great gods perfected his magnificence beyond all others, terrible like the great wild bull". this is a great example that show some of the super-human qualities that the gods gave gilgamesh upon his birth.

as gilgamesh grows he has to face many challenges that put his heroism to task. the courage he displays along the way, prove that he's ready to live up to the godly qualities brought upon him. at one point he has to overcome a wild beast by the name of hubamba "whose roar is a flood, whose mouth is fire, whose breath is death", as the text reads. the actions taken by gilgamesh, beating the beast with the use of his super-human force, examplify why he shoud be thought of as an epic hero.
