The first civilizations rose in an area called the Fertile Crescent. They were city-states who often fought for territory and control of the Euphrates and Tigris rivers. They mostly lived in an area called Sumer, the southern part of Mesopotamia. This was an area that soon became where the great civilizations of Babylonia and Assyria rose.
