∙ 12y agoIt's a desert area surrounded by two rivers. The Moespotamians invented the firstirrigation system so their farms didn't have to depend on rain. Because of their location, they don't have a season where it is too cold to grow crops, so they grew crops 365 days of the years. They had a large surplus of grain, produce and farm animals with which they could trade. The irrigation systems also meant that their farms didn't need as many people to tend them and the Mesopotamians had time to devote themselves to other products to manufacture and trade. What they manufactured and how their society developed you'll have to research. It's would take to much space to explain here. But if you read a history of Mesopotamia, you will be taken through the agricultural age, the bronze age and the iron age. All civilizations followed the same development stages, learning agriculture and making hunting and gathering obsolete, they they learned other crafts during the bronze age and iron age. The bronze age and the iron age had a lot more developments associated with them.
