Answer:

The floodplains provided fertile soil for growing crops.

Explanation:

In the fertile crescent, the most important floodplain is that of Mesopotamia, between the rivers Tigris and Euphrates.

This area of the world is not only where agriculture was first attested, but also the region where the first human civilization emerged: Sumer.

And the floodplain was crucial for this. The rivers flooded their banks with nutrients that were carried in sediments. These nutrients made the soil more fertile, allowing for easier and more productive agriculture, which produced the necessary food surpluses that are required for the development of early civilization.

why would a geographer want to collect a city's historical information like census data and natrual disaters
balandron [24]

<u>Answer:</u>

A geographer would collect a city's historical data about the census and the occurrences of natural disasters in order to study the impact of demographics and calamities on the geographical features of the region.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • The discipline of Geography is made up of two broad classes. One is Physical Geography and the other is Human Geography.
  • These two classes are interdependent and their functioning is coherent.
  • The study of a region's Geography is incomplete without the studies of the region's demography and the occurrences of natural disaster in the region, for their impact on the regional geography is immense.
