<span>From outsiders perspective - not very different from disadvantages elsewhere, but bigger.
I see two, just from general paying attention to news.
1) resources extracted by colonists (maybe less so now, but still) and so not available to the natives of the reason, going instead to China or whoever is doing the extracting now.
2) Tough, dirty, dangerous job to do the actual mining. Tough - wears down the miners. Dirty - will cause long term damage, like black lung. Dangerous - both mining accidents and possible danger from dealing with the greedy.

So, to summarize, the risks are publicized to the regional people, the rewards are privatized to whoever has the power.</span><span>

How did the Tigris and Euphrates rivers help the growth of the Mesopotamia?

Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer: Two rivers, the Tigris and the Euphrates

Explanation: Two rivers, the Tigris and the Euphrates, regularly flooded the region, and the Nile River also runs through part of it. Irrigation and agriculture developed here because of the fertile soil found near these rivers. ... Increased population and demands on the rivers from urbanization have depleted the once-fertile soil. With the Euphrates, it makes up a river system that borders Mesopotamia in the area known as the Fertile Crescent. An important source of both travel and irrigation, the Tigris also has a rich history that dates back to the earliest known civilizations because of its importance to a largely arid region.

Answer: c. Is the time to make a decision related to the quality of a player's hand.

Explanation: in a poker game the time to make a decisions is when "the clock has been called", at this time, the player has a limited amount of time to make a decision.
