What religious, social, and political developments that accompanied urbanization from 3500 to 2000 BCE .

trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

The greatest technological development of this time was irrigation. Originally the Mesopotamia’s’ believed their sole purpose was to serve the gods and provide them with luxuries such as fine clothes and lodging. Their communities consisted of 35 politically equal cites with religious sanctuaries. All cities were known as spiritual and economic. Social hierarchies began to grow, separating the privileged, and the less privileged. The Sumerians and the Akkadians believed in a group of gods that controlled everything including their political institutions. Each major god of the Sumerian pantheon lives in a luxury temple in the part of the city that he/she created, thus bettering each cities character and relationships with its neighbors. Royal palaces also revealed the power of

the elite, being the official home of the ruler and his family. Social hierarches were very important in Sumerian city-states. Ruling groups had access to economic and political resources. The kings/ priests were at the top of the list, then bureaucrats, followed by supervisors and craft workers, and traders. Movement among classes was very rare. Mesopotamia was the first to develop a complex writing system. They were the first record keepers and readers. This gave rise to written narratives. Due to rising populations,there was a lot of competition among these societies that often led to violence. The Chinese culture took a little longer to urbanize, although they eventually got there, they had some troubles in the beginning. Their animals for instance weren’t very domesticated, and deserts made it harder to migrate

During the mid-1800s, which region relied MOST on farming and a workforce of slaves?

Phoenix [80]

In the Thirteen Colonies, plantations were concentrated in the South. These colonies included Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia. They had good soil and almost year-round growing seasons, ideal for crops such as rice and tobacco. The existence of many waterways in the region made transportation easier. Each colony specialized in one or two crops, with Virginia standing out in tobacco production[2]

Slavery[edit]See also: Slavery in the United States and Slavery in the colonial United StatesSugar plantation in the British colony of Antigua, 1823

Planters embraced the use of slaves mainly because indentured labor became expensive. Some indentured servants were also leaving to start their own farms as land was widely available. Colonists tried to use Native Americans for labor, but they were susceptible to European diseases and died in large numbers. The plantation owners then turned to enslaved Africans for labor. In 1665, there were fewer than 500 Africans in Virginia but by 1750, 85 percent of the 235,000 slaves lived in the Southern colonies, Virginia included. Africans made up 40 percent of the South’s population.[3]

According to the 1840 United States Census, one out of every four families in Virginia owned slaves. There were over 100 plantation owners who owned over 100 slaves.[4]

Number of slaves in the Lower South: 2,312,352 (47% of total population).Number of slaves in the Upper South: 1,208,758 (9% of total population).Number of slaves in the Border States: 432,586 (13% of total population).

Fewer than one-third of Southern families owned slaves at the peak of slavery prior to the Civil War. In Mississippi and South Carolina the figure approached one half. The total number of slave owners was 385,000 (including, in Louisiana, some free African Americans), amounting to approximately 3.8% of the Southern and Border states population.

On a plantation with more than 100 slaves, the capital value of the slaves was greater than the capital value of the land and farming implements.
