Explanation:  Nile is a river that literally breathes life into ancient Egypt and areas along the river. The Nile River periodically flooded every year at the same time areas near the river valley and deposited sludge from the river on the coast. In this way it soaked the soil with nutrients and minerals, and made the coasts a very fertile soil for the development of agriculture. It was a key factor for the development of Egypt as well as for all civilizations grown in river valleys. The development of agriculture increased wealth and power, agricultural products could be exchanged for other goods, etc. If we know that the ancient (even today's) Egypt in areas not along the Nile coast, consists of deserts, where agriculture is not possible at all. In this sense, if there was no flooding of the Nile, we can assume that the soil configuration would not be the same, but similar to the desert, because it is still close to the river, there would be some oases with greenery due to the proximity of the water. But agriculture would certainly not be possible, because there would be no fertile soil. Life would be similar to that in the deserts, like the Bedouins possessing green oases with water as precious.

Why did Georgia and the other states favor a weak central government under the Articles of Confederation?
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

The answer is:

Georgia's first constitutional convention met and produced the state's inaugural constitution, known as the Constitution of 1777. Several other states also chose the convention method as a means of adopting new constitutions

There were some issues regarding these different methods like the legitimacy of the constitution-making process

Explanation:

The government they established was a confederation, a loose organization of states where the power remained in the individual states with the central government remaining weak. The government was composed of a Confederation Congress with limited powers. It had no executive or judicial branches and no power to tax or to regulate trade.

State law was supreme, problems with war debts, trade, and diplomacy spurred many of the new country’s leaders to call for a revision of the Articles of Confederation to give the central government more power to deal with these problems.
