offer
two main advantages to any civilization. They provide water to irrigate the fields, and they offer the easiest method of transport for a society without paved roads. Agriculture, farming, trade was very important for development of a community. Rivers helps us to develop all these.. So people began to build permanent communities in fertile river valleys. Settlers learned to use the water supply to irrigate the land. Rivers allowed people to bathe, to trade and travel. Rivers supplied drinking water for people and their animals.
The four river-valley civilizations of India, China, Egypt, and Mesopotamia were among the earliest civilizations in history and they were near big rivers.
The four great river valley civilizations were the Nile River Valley, the Tigris-Euphrates River Valley, the Huang-He River Valley, and the Indus River Valley. Today, in this post we shall discuss about some important riverside cities of India and world.
