First Person Writing About Mesopotamia

    In Mesopotamia it is very wet. We get flash flooding and that harms the city. We sometimes have too much food or water. It is very hard with the silt that builds up and the effect it has on the city. To solve this problem we have to coaperate with our neighboors but it is some times hard. When we get flash floods many people do not survive it. Some of the family is gone because of the droughts and the flooding. It is realy complicated when we have to loose a family member. In Mesopotamia we have realy good times but sometimes we have realy realy bad times like when we have to clean the silt. Many times we have to help the children on the activities they have to do. Many city states in Mesopotamia are very nice.

    What i mean by "too much food and water" is that having toomuch of something is never good for someone,even if its healthy food.

    A solution to this problem that affected farming of our land was the creation of levees and irrigation systems. For this to be maintained, however, cooperation is essential. We need to create a system in which all able bodied men and women routinely clean out the irrigation systems. Failure to do so would destroy us. Maybe strong laws would help.

    I would agree with you to have strong laws and they would help a lot.
