The two major rivers
Mesopotamians build canals for harvesting. They used them to make the soil around them fertile. This helped them a lot and they had enough food for them and for trading.
Men's roles in Mesopotamia were slaves which they were used to build projects, most of them became scribes to record laws and important documents.
Almost all of the ancient civilizations could be found along rivers or at least a good source of water. Water was essential for daily living and farming. The Mesopotamian civilizations were along the Euphrates and Tigres, the Egyptian civilization was along the Nile, while the Syrians had their capitol of Antioch on the Orontes River.

Assyria's military power and well-organized government helped build a vast empire in Mesopotamia by 650 BC. It did not hurt that there was already a substantial population in Mesopotamia who could be harnessed both for their agricultural ability, but also to be draft soldiers in the Assyrian Army.Assiria was founded by a people called the Assirians,who lived north near the Tigris River

Mesopotamia is roughly the region now known as Iraq, one of the places where civilization first started (in the form of city states.) "Meso" means "middle" or "between" and "potamia" refers to rivers; Mesopotamia is the area in and around the Tigris and Euphrates rivers. This is not a coincidence; other places where early civilizations began also were around rivers (such as the Nile or Indus Valley civilizations) because people needed an agricultural surplus in order to build cities and engage in other, specialized activities.
