Civilization in mesopatnia
Mesopotamia is a name for the area between the taigas and euphrates rivers the reason this place was so successful for living in was because of the fertile land that the rivers had created and because it was easy to transport stuff through the rivers. The sumerians were one of the very first civilizations that lived in the mesopatmia. That was until the akkidans were a civilized people who spoke a language close to Arabic and were able to gain control over the sumerians with there superiority. The akkidans decided to take many ideas from the previous civilization and build off of the ideas before them. Civilizations continued to build of the ones before them and adapting religious beliefs, government , and forms of currency to ultimately attempt to make the best Civilization possible.
Analysis
Outline
A few thousand years ago, a group of semi-Semitic speakers united and migrated into northern mesopotamia. After realizing how smart they were as a people, a new Capital was set up at Akkad. This is how the Akkidans got their names. The akkidans had a strong army, carrying out over 30 battles against semerian city-states, which were eventually handed over to the Akkidans, expanding their empire even more. The Akkidans were polytheistic, and became very successful with farming, thanks to the wonderful layout of the tigres and Euphrates rivers.
