Answer: The new smelting processes made them stronger
-Apex
Ages are labeled according to what the humans living at that time were able to accomplish. In the Stone age, people learned to make tools from stone. In the Bronze age, people had learned to melt metals together in an alloy that is called 'bronze'.
In the Iron age, people learned how to generate enough heat to melt iron and fashion tools with it.
They used the bronze tools that they made. They imported goods as well and imported items so trade brought a lot of things because instead of having to hunt they grew crops and use trade.
to make a bronze age sword you smelt copper and tin together. then pour it into a mould.
The Bronze age [3500 BCE - 1100 BCE] ended when the Iron age commenced. The obvious reason is that iron is more durable than bronze, which chips when struck with iron. The practical implications of this were that bronze armor went out of style when warriors started to use iron swords.
However, this is not the full answer. Archaeologists found destruction layers between the Bronze and Iron Age layers. This means that there was some catastrophe that happened to usher in the Iron Age. There was a significant change in culture as well. Natural disasters such as floods and earthquakes have been suggested, but this is probably not the case. Civil unrest or invasion from outside is more likely, and the reason that the invaders succeeded was most likely due to their superior weapons and superior tactics. They were able to conquer civilizations that relied on chariots because no one had succeeded in developing a way to stop these war machines. The invaders did, and eventually the chariot went out of style. People began relying more on footsoldiers to go to war. This is the essence of the change between the Bronze Age and the Iron Age.
The Zhou Dynasty in China was still going on.
Yes because bronze is made of copper so copper was around before bronze

No.
Copper is a pure metallic element.
Bronze is an alloy (an alloy is a mixture of two or more elements) of Copper usually with Tin as the main additive, but sometimes with other elements such as phosphorus, manganese, aluminum, or silicon.
Bronze is harder and less malleable than pure metallic copper.
ancient age, medieval age and modern age are the different ages.
The Egyptians used tools like spears, nets, and knives to hunt. These tools were often made from stone or from metal and mounted on wooden sticks.
Urbanization is a modern idea and term. It will be thousands of years before there is urbanization and cars. Bronze Age had nothing to do with it.
yes, it was always there
