The Mesopotamians belief of choize is Zoroastrianism. This religion has 6 deities and they followed their prophet Zoroaster (or also known as Zarathustra) and his faith. Their creator god, Ahura Mazda had a lot of similarties to the god of Judaism/Christianity/Islam and lived their lives in search of heaven and in the avoidance of hell. The Mesopotamians conquered lands in the name of their god and abided by the commandments of the religion, such as: "Do the right thing because it is the right thing to do, and then all beneficial rewards will come to you also." They lived by a moral code that is comparable to karma in Hinduism and Buddhism.
