Best Answer

The land fertility and river water allowed the production of surplus food. This surplus provided the basis for spending time and money on building, leisure and cultural activities. This included the beginnings of writing, codes of law, effective government, urbanisation, and unfortunately seriously organised warfare.

How did sumerian civilization affect other empires that developed in mesopotamia?

Mesopotamia's rivers (Tigris and Euphrates) are key to their civilization. Because of the rivers Sumerians (Mesopotamia's people) could trade and travel through them. Not to mention just plain drinking water. Another benefit of the rivers was irrigation. Hammurabi (a Mesopotamian king) had helped find a way to control the floods to benefit farming.
