Which country do you credit creating civilization to?
Iraq? Egypt?
Greece
Well Mesopotamia was the first ever civ so Iraq I guess
Jolly ol' England
Sid Meier is Canadian
maybe mesopotamia
they influenced egyptian hieroglyphics but otherwise they are concurrent
writting does help in urbanization
>>58360433
greece you fucking apologist
Greece or egypt or both. :^)
Mesopotamia is the only answer since all following civs took influence from the previous ones to grow ever more developed. Had Mesopotamia not started that cascade, someone else would have, but still.

>>58360645
Well yeah
Governmental organization started with those civs, so did writing and a legal system as well as organized warfare. Imagine where we'd be without that today.
>>58360645
they got invaded while egypt was safe for thousands of years
and persia is not mesopotamia
>>58360690
>>58360686

only when the dynasties were weak, it had natural protection such as restricted access while mesopotamia is much easier to penetrate
the invaders were a totally different people to mesopotamia yet they retained most of the systems the sumerians left even managing to change the religion of the invaders

Greece is the biggest meme
They took everything from the Phoenicians. Granted they did lay the foundation for philosophy and democracy but those two haven't always been beneficial in human history.

>mesopotamia is much easier to penetrate
like ur mum

Okay it was safer than Mesopotamia then. Still though, IIRC the first realms in Egypt were established by Mesopotamian emigrants. They also took plenty of inspiration from them, making Mesopotamia the cornerstone of ancient civilization.
>>58360891
I am not sure about that
Egyptian civ is derived from the oasis people, they moved out from their oasis and settled around the nile and the cities started to connect but the writing did theoretically pass from mesopotamia to egypt but since there were to translators they guessed what it could have meant
>>58360690
>and persia is not mesopotamia
too bad as those are the only ones that had a lasting inpact in the form of greeks and way later "muslims" adopting their culture
>>58361026
wtf, sorry
*but they survived, cant say that about phoenicians, of whom we know little, and the few things we know we know from the greeks which were acually clever enough to write shit down
