Answer:

The Nile River

Explanation:

Water during ancient civilizations was a MUST and looking at the most successful civilizations, you can see that they all are near a water source. The nice thing about water sources is that they provide silt, which is great for farming and makes the land fertile. They  can also help with transportation because it was faster to go by boat than by horse and cart. This is the great thing about the Nile, it was the best of all of these things for the Egyptians. First, it provided them with water and food. This makes the basic needs for the civilization settled, so they can worry about advancement not surivival. Second, it provided silt for farmers making a surplus of food, which allowed for specialization (not everyone has to be a farmer). The silt was brought onto the farms though when the river flooded. The great thing though was that the river's flooding could be predicted because it happened at a certain time and would flood to a certain point on the river bank (unlike the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers for Mesopotamia).  So, the Egyptians didn't have to worry about all of their stuff being destroyed. The final great thing about the Nile, was that sailing on the current of it, would lead you to the Mediterranean Sea, which was where all the trading went on, so the river really helped Egypt trade with other civilizations as well. This also allowed for cultural diffusion, so Egypt could impact others, but more importantly it could take ideas from other civilizations and implement them into it's own society (which it did quite often).

What was the Supreme Court case that legalized same sex relationships?
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

Explanation:

Obergefell v. Hodges, 576 U.S. 644 (2015) (/ˈoʊbərɡəfɛl/ OH-bər-gə-fel), is a landmark civil rights case in which the Supreme Court of the United States ruled that the fundamental right to marry is guaranteed to same-sex couples by both the Due Process Clause and the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution. The 5–4 ruling requires all fifty states, the District of Columbia, and the Insular Areas to perform and recognize the marriages of same-sex couples on the same terms and conditions as the marriages of opposite-sex couples, with all the accompanying rights and responsibilities.[2][3]

Between January 2012 and February 2014, plaintiffs in Michigan, Ohio, Kentucky, and Tennessee filed federal district court cases that culminated in Obergefell v. Hodges. After all district courts ruled for the plaintiffs, the rulings were appealed to the Sixth Circuit. In November 2014, following a series of appeals court rulings that year from the Fourth, Seventh, Ninth, and Tenth Circuits that state-level bans on same-sex marriage were unconstitutional, the Sixth Circuit ruled that it was bound by Baker v. Nelson and found such bans to be constitutional.[4] This created a split between circuits and led to a Supreme Court review.

Decided on June 26, 2015, Obergefell overturned Baker and requires all states to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples and to recognize same-sex marriages validly performed in other jurisdictions.[5] This established same-sex marriage throughout the United States and its territories. In a majority opinion authored by Justice Anthony Kennedy, the Court examined the nature of fundamental rights guaranteed to all by the Constitution, the harm done to individuals by delaying the implementation of such rights while the democratic process plays out,[6] and the evolving understanding of discrimination and inequality that has developed greatly since Baker.[7]

Prior to Obergefell, same-sex marriage had already been established by law, court ruling, or voter initiative in thirty-six states, the District of Columbia, and Guam.[3]
