One theory suggested that a nomadic, Indo-European tribe, called the Aryans, invaded and conquered the Indus Valley Civilization.Many scholars now believe the collapse of the Indus Valley Civilization was caused by climate change.The eastward shift of monsoons may have reduced the water supply, forcing the Harappans of the Indus River Valley to migrate and establish smaller villages and isolated farms.These small communities could not produce the agricultural surpluses needed to support cities, which where then abandoned.

How can 3-D printing enable Burton to develop better boards than more traditional methods?

Oxana [17]

Explanation:

For 3D printing, the part can be printed on demand and shipped without any ramp up or tooling, resulting in a lead time as short as 2 or 3 days. The combination of the reduced lead time and the more efficient prototyping process reduces the time to market. This is a great advantage since delay creates uncertainty.

How was the mentality of the people in the south in the civil war

butalik [34]

Answer: Complicated plz read

Explanation: So the south had the majority of the slaves during the civil war time. The south wanted to Keep slavery and the north wanted to abolish it. This war was considered one of the bloodiest battles in american history. Slavery was very essential back then becuase all those slaves were working hard with minimum to no pay on the farms. This means that the owners could sell the crops and get the moolah.(its all about the moolah right)? So there was a big gun fight and people died. But the mentality of the south states I guess were angry and fighting to keep the money(simply put). While the north thought that the south were being bullies:)
