the Mississippi River allowed access to the Southeast from the gulf coast, and was tremendously important in allowing the colonization of that part of the United States.
In addition, I would say that access to the river encouraged agriculture in the region, since without the Mississippi and its tributaries, there would have been no easy way to transport bulk commodities from the plantations to the end markets in the Northeast and in Europe.
Finally, the ease of transport also helped foster the slave trade. Transporting slaves overland would have been a much more difficult and expensive proposition than simply loading them on a boat and opening the hatch again at the destination, requiring much more manpower to keep control and opening the slavetraders to a much higher possibility of slave revolts or other mishaps.
The Mississippi river was critical in the development of southeast, and remains so even today. In later times, the Mississippi river and its tributaries allowed for the Tennessee Valley Authority to develop the system of dams that powers much of the region today, and it remains an important transport route for bulk cargo.
It has seved as a pivotal form of transportation in U.S. history. And it also sustains a lot of life and serves as part of the water cycle, bringing the water to the ocean.
An important military highway. After the Union liberated it, they isolated all Confederate units to the West of the river, and the port of New Orleans could not be used by the blockade runners.
Cities were important in Mesopotamia civilizations, because it led to the development of urban populations. Abundance was created as a result of the cities.
The waterways could ship goods from the interior of the south to the coast where they could be sent to Europe.
New Orleans is the major city of Louisiana, and it became important because it is located at the mouth of the Mississippi River and is therefore a major transshipment point for a great deal of shipping that travels on the river.
The development of early cities made it easier for people to communicate quickly in their daily lives. The development of early cities also meant that diseases spread more quickly.
