Geography of Mesopotamia

Five things I learned about Mesopotamia:

• Mesopotamia means the land that is surrounded by two rivers Tigris and Euhrates.
• Farmers lived there because the soil was fertile and they could get lots of water to grow plants
• People also lived there because it was easy transportation
• The yearly flood was unpredictable
• Mesopotamia was easy to invade because it had few mountains.
• Mesopotamia had few building materials
• They used mud and bricks to plaster
• Farmers didn't know when to plant because of the unpredictable floods
