∙ 9y agoIn ancient times, a society often came to a point where there production of food or for fisheries created a surplus. Generally speaking, this gave neighboring societies a reason to promote trade for obtaining things they did not have. As trading continued, the lives of people in trading cities became exposed to different cultures and also new "technologies" for producing goods. This interaction sometimes led to alliances, and sometimes to war. Either way, the outlook that people had on the world changed as by trading they came into contact with other cultures.
