Hey there!

The Fertile Crescent was where ancient civilizations in places like Mesopotamia by the Sumerians and other peoples conquered and created towns. This was mainly because of the rich, fertile, soil, that allowed lots of food surpluses along with riches and fortune. The soil allowed for good farming, so processing and creating food was also allowed.

The reason it was fertile was because of two rivers that surrounded the crescent: the Tigris and Euphrates river. Although some argue the Euphrates is more impactful, they both often flooded and their waters kept the soil suitable for farming.

Hope this helps!

The fertile cresent lives up to it's name, because it is an area that has some of the 'richest' soils in the Middle East, and is generally supplied with silt (which is rich in nutrients and good for farming). Because of this silt, the land is productive and fertile. It is also an area that usually had moderate - large amount of rains, as well as rivers that flow throughout the area

How does the relationship between siblings typically change from adolescence to adulthood? the siblings tend to become closer?

Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

During the adolescent stages in life, things seem so much bigger than they are. You can view that in the positive light or the negative to be honest. As a child, you see your siblings as another human who lives in your home with you, eats the same food, breathes the same air, loves the same parents as you. You fight over the remote control and wrestle with one another over a small toy you both insisted on needing at the same time. Within the next breath, you sit next to them and talk about your day, ask them to defend you from a so called friend who uses your kindness for weakness as your sibling reminds you of why you are so imortant in this life and deserve to be noticed for that... Swingsets, bike rides to the store, a companion who is always there to listen about how mom and dad "just aren't fair!" Fast forward to 30 years old. Life interferes with the time spent together, the playtime becomes few and far between and the bike rides are a distant memory. The things that stay though...those are very similar to my first statements on childhood with them. The love, support and time spent doesn't need to disapear. It turns into a mature type of love. You call one another every few days to check in. Make a coffee date to catch up on her latest life experience and remind them that you are always here. Those bike rides though? Now you can take them together with your own children.

Based on the map, why was the Fertile Crescent favorable for early settlements?

tatyana61 [14]

The Fertile Crescent was favorable for early settlement because the region had good access to water and it had very fertile soil around the rivers, these factors all helped with farming. All in all it was favorable because of its easy access to water which also made harvest more plentiful and inviting to settle.
