Mesopotamia had an excellent geographic setting for the people living in the area to be able to develop well. The two large rivers the Tigris and the Euphrates rivers had created a valley. This valley was very fertile because of the deposits that the waters left each year. Because the soil was very fertile and the climate constantly warm, the people were able to produce a lot of food, thus they solved the basic problem, resulting in much more spare time and engaging into numerous other fields. The valleys were surrounded by deserts, which was a natural protective barrier from invaders, as most of them were not willing to risk going for days in the open deserts as it was too risky. The safety gave the people living in this area much easier life, so they were able to focus on developing without having the fear of being attacked or constantly be in war with someone else.
