Mkey [24]2 years ago

The introduction of writing(Cuneiform) made it possible for merchants to keep track of various trades.

Although agriculture was Sumer's primary industry, trade with distant lands flourished as well. Because the Mesopotamian plain lacked resources like metals, timber, stone, and grapevines, the Sumerians had to trade abroad to obtain them.

Cuneiform is one of the oldest known forms of writing. It means "wedge-shaped," because it was written on a clay tablet with a reed stylus cut to make a wedge-shaped mark. There have been discovered clay enveloped letters as well as works of literature such as the Epic of Gilgamesh.

Sumerian city of Uruk which advanced the writing of cuneiform.

I think that the best answer is "people" - the forth choice.

The Preamble starts with the words "We the People" and does not mention the Government, either state or federal, nor the president: the other choices are incorrect.

Thomas Jefferson and James Madison had similar economic beliefs. Which of the following was their interpretation of what was mos
AleksAgata [21]
A and D. Jefferson was a member of the Democratic-Republican party, which was sort of the opposite of the federalists. He was all about agrarian society, which means farming out the wazoo, and he wanted things to stay small. He figured that farming was the epitome of a good american virtue - self sufficient, hard working - and he was therefore big on telling the government to keep their hands off of things (think of the whiskey rebellion). He thought that if we engaged in foreign trade that our money would flow out of the US and not be replenished enough coming back in. In fact, most of hte founding fathers were big on isolationism (sticking to ourselves and leaving foreign affairs alone), probably because they'd just gone through a huge costly war affair with England and didn't want to deal with that again (think of Geo Washington's farewell speech)
