The Indus Civilization, one of the world's earliest urban cultures, flourished around 2500 BCE in the northwestern regions of South Asia, primarily in present-day Pakistan and northwest India. Key centers of this civilization included major cities such as Harappa and Mohenjo-Daro, characterized by advanced urban planning, sophisticated drainage systems, and standardized brick construction. These cities were notable for their economic activities, including trade and agriculture, and they demonstrated remarkable social organization and cultural achievements. The decline of the Indus Civilization around 1900 BCE remains a subject of study, with theories suggesting climate change, resource depletion, or invasion as potential factors.
