Basically, the region is a desert and water meant life or death. If you controlled the water then you had power and God made it.
the Tigris and Euphrates were so important because they caused flooding in Mesopotamia which fed the soil. the Area between the two rivers is referred to as the fertile crescent. without the flooding the fertile crescent would have become desert like leading to starvation. It is also thought that the fertile crescent is the heart of the neolithic revolution which lead to how we farm today.
