The Tigris and Euphrates rivers supported the growth of the Mesopotamian Civilization. Mesopotamia is located between the two rivers, the Persian Gulf and the Mediterranean Sea. Frequent floods left fresh silt, making the land ideal for farming. Because the farmers were able to grow plentiful food, the world’s first civilization developed.
Hey Jonathan,
I liked your post about Mesopotamia because I’m learning about something similar in the school where I live! It was neat how you were able to incorporate a Thinglink presentation into your blog so people reading can visualize Mesopotamia better. In my school we read a book about middle ages and Arabia, but did you have to make this post or did you choose to?

Hello, Isaac. I’m so sorry for the late reply. This was indeed a mandatory posting, however I think that if it was an optional assignment, I would have done it anyway. Thank you for your praise. I have checked your class’ blog, and I think it is quite nice. I love how you guys do blog challenges. Please continue to view my blog for updates!
-Sincerely, Jonathan
