History

Answer:     The answer is: surplus.

Explanation:  Since the Sumerian civilisation developed between rivers in the fertile plain, therefore, thanks to agriculture, combined with the rainy seasons during the year, meant that they were able to produce large quantities of food. That food was necessary for life, and any excess food could be exchanged for some other good, which was in fact a precondition for development. Every surplus of food, growing bigger and bigger, meant an exchange for something else that was needed, and over time, it had grown to such an extent that this exchange meant wealth, power and dominance in the ancient world.

Of course, this exchange of surplus food for other goods contributed to the development of trade with their neighbours, which was a prerequisite for the development of the empire. Thus, a trading system was developed that included established trade canals and their development and promotion, as well as writing trade agreements with a wedge-shaped letter, for easier, faster and more efficient trade.

What were the causes of the cold war?
e-lub [12.9K]
The Cold War really began before WW II as the US and Russia had 2 very opposing views of government and didn't trust each other. However, during the war, the two countries had to put their differences aside to beat Nazi Germany. Towards the end of the war, it was evident that heat was building up between the two countries again. The Soviets were taking liberties in areas that suggested they were not only interested in winning the war but taking land also. They insisted they control Berlin at the end of the war, wanted Manchuria for their own and not to give back to China, insisted they be in charge of Postwar Japan operations (MacArthur said absolutely not) and were really upset that the US had the power to use a nuclear bomb that they didn't even know existed. The Soviets were also aggressive after the war in areas such as Korea and Viet Nam with "support".
