The Fertile Crescent is narrow primarily due to its geographical formation, which includes the Tigris and Euphrates rivers that flow through arid regions of the Middle East. The surrounding deserts limit the spread of fertile land, confining agriculture to a relatively small area. Additionally, the varied topography and climate changes in the region contribute to the narrowness, creating a unique but constrained environment suitable for early civilizations. This narrow band of fertile land was crucial for the development of agriculture and the rise of early societies.
