Why did early civilizations develop in the valley of Huang He?
Early civilizations developed near any river valleys. The most common river valleys was the Nile RIver of Egypt, Tigris and Euphrates river in the fertile crescent and the yellow river/Huang he river in china. the reason for the settlement near the river valleys was the fertile land. Nomads did not have to move around for food and home. THey learned to grow crops and domesticate animals. River valleys gave nomads a place to stay and develop towns and villages which led to societies and a civilization.
Why did the fertile crescents domesticated plants and animals give it such a head start over the rest of the world?
I believe the answer is "the timing of the adoption of food production".I got this from a summary on-line, of Guns, Germs, and Steel.This makes sense because of the advantages listed of the area of the Fertile Crescent, compared to other locations, including North America.
Why did the Indus Valley Civilization respect animals?
They respected animals because they believed that animals were holy and the Indus valley civilization did not believe in violence.
Why is the Fertile Crescent important to civilizations?
When the two rivers flood (Euphrates & Tigris) it makes the soil rich and soft and it makes the crops grow better. I hope that helps!Fertile crescent attracted Sumerians because of their fertile soil. It contained one plain known as Mesopotamia, meaning in Greek "land between the rivers''.
When did farming start in the middle east?
Mesopotmia rose because the citizens started to domesticate plants and animals. In order to care for their plants they had to settle down in one place. So when Mesopotamia rose was when the farming in mesopotamia started (10,000- 6,000 B.C.)
What aspects of Europe made their civilization grow more slowly than the civilizations in the Fertile Crescent?
Agriculture was born in the fertile crescent and was the reason that civilizations were able to develop more rapidly there than in Europe. Farming and crop growing and herding/raising of animals enabled people to settle in one place and develop cities, cultures and all the other traits that we associate with civilization. Europe had a much different geography. There were dense forests, hills and mountains and seasonal climate changes. This type of landscape was more able to support a hunter/gather society rather than an agricultural one. When the Europeans developed their agriculture, then they developed their civilizations.More Rainfall.In the fertile crescent, the land was fertile, which meant that the land was excellent for farming.

What is the importants of the Fertile Crescent?
The fertile crescent is seen as the first place that man moved from a nomadic lifestyle to a settled lifestyle and began to farm crops intentionally (rather than just moving to where edible plants grew themselves). This is known as the agricultural revolution and is seen as a critical point in the history of mankind. The reason that civilization effectively started in the fertile crescent is complicated and not entirely understood, but it is known as an unusually fertile area of land (hence the name) and located in an area where the vast majority of farmable animals can survive and are available. The pivotal role of the fertile crescent in the development of human civilization is discussed in two excellent books: The Ascent of Man, by Jacob Bronowski and Guns, Germs and Steel by Jared Diamond Both of these books have been made into TV documentaries, which I highly recommend if you are interested in this subject.
Why was the Middle East called the Fertile Cresent?
The Middle East is referred to as the Fertile Crescent due to its rich agricultural land and the crescent-shaped region that encompasses parts of modern-day Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Israel, and Jordan. This area was crucial for early human civilization because its fertile soil, ample water supply from rivers like the Tigris and Euphrates, and favorable climate allowed for the cultivation of crops and the domestication of animals. Consequently, it became a cradle for agriculture and the development of early societies, leading to significant advancements in culture and civilization.
What is the term for the regions where plants and animals were initially domesticated?
The term is "cradle of civilization" or "Fertile Crescent." It refers to the ancient region in the Middle East, including modern-day Iraq, Iran, Syria, and Turkey, where agriculture and domestication of plants and animals first took place.
