I had to do this for history homework. I am in 9th grade and world history is my favorite subject!

The Shona people, the founders of Great Zimbabwe, interacted with their environment in several positive ways. As a cattle herding people the Shona found a location that was suited to both their cattle and to farming practices. Once they established themselves in the region, they also took advantage of other resources in their environment, for example the large stones to build their impressive city, (the great walls of Zimbabwe contain approximately 900,000

stone blocks held together without mortar,) and the mineral wealth of the goldfields that lay around them. By taking advantage of the goldfield routes that passed through the plateau the city was built on, they built up a great deal of wealth that gave them religious, political, and economic power in the region.
