The Christian West Turning Point
A turning point in the Christian West was that you couldn’t be any other religion you had to be Christian to live in the broken down Roman Empire which is like the social hierarchy it is like being prejudice not allowing a certain kind of people to enter a certain place now that is truly not fair. Being not able to believe in what you believe in going to another country. Another turning point is that they thought the priest’s were higher ranking then them why can’t they live without saying that -

Democracy in Athens Turning Point
A turning point in the democracy of Athens is that you have to be born of an Athenian mother and father and have fulfilled his military service by the legal age of 18. That is not fair here in Canada know we have to take a test but back then they think if you weren’t born by an Athenian family then you are not Athenian legally. Another drawback is that you have to be a citizen to be able to own land. The wife of a citizen, his daughter and his underage son belonged to the citizenry. -

The Roman State Turning Point
A turning point in the Roman State was that they were greedy much greedier then most of the other countries. Before they lived together with the Etruscans and the Carthaginians but then it all changed when the Romans wanted it all and attacked them and stole the land. That it is one greedy State and so once they got those two places they went going further and further to capture even more lands and become even more powerful. Eventually their territory spanned the Mediterranean. As they went on t -
The Chinese Civilization (source From Yesterday to Tomorrow)
Around 2000 BCE the Chinese civilization emerged on the banks of the Hoang-Ho. This river is the river that flows through the middle of the centre of s fertile valley in Asia. The Chinese civilization was blocked in every direction they couldn’t go anywhere. They thought they were in the centre of the universe and thought that they would make up the middle kingdom. The Chinese civilization became very resourceful since they were blocked in by the mountains, river and the desert. This civilizatio -
The Growth of Cities and Trade Turning Point
A turning point in The Growth of Cities and Trade is that when you trade who knows what sickness you will bring with you for example the plague was a disease that spread from people that did trades they brought rats that were infected around. That was all because of long distance trades if they didn’t make it so long distant they could have secured it in a small city or just one country. But instead it spread to more than one country which is terrible. And that is the turning point for The Growt -
The Civilization of the Indus Valley (source From Yesterday to Tomorrow)
Around 2500 BCE another civilization appeared and took the root in the fertile valley of the Indus River in Asia. This river did a lot of helpful things to the Indus Valley like it helped them with their crops and harvest. A few of the agricultural communities settled on this certain area just for its known powerful floods so that the land would get fertile. One of the first important cities in the Indus Valley was Harappa and that was discovered when people were trying to build a railroad track -
Civilization of the Nile Valley (source From Yesterday to Tomorrow)
Around 3000 BCE this new civilization appeared along the fertile valley near the Nile River. The Nile is a major river in Egypt it flows through the desert areas making harvesting and crops possible. The Nile Valley is pretty much like Mesopotamia except that the Nile Valley only has one river the Nile. The people of the Nile Valley decided to work together to create a watercourse. They thought it was a dumb idea to let all of this resource (water) go to waste. So that is why they decided to d -
Mesopotamian Civilization (source From Yesterday to Tomorrow)
Mesopotamia is often known as the cradle of life officially because as man knows it that’s where one of the great civilizations started. Mesopotamia is surrounded by two rivers The Tigris and The Euphrates this is very good for Mesopotamia because of inundation. Inundation is when there is an overflow of water and it goes into the city. The good part of that is the crops are well watered but the bad part is that the houses get hosed down so it is on both sides it is bad but good also at the sam -
Mesopotamia Turning Point
A turning point in Mesopotamia is that your land would always get flooded which means that your house will be flooded also. That is a really annoying part of Mesopotamia and a thing that people don’t want to keep on doing is drowning out there house like there whole life. In Mesopotamia there is also social hierarchy and which is bad. Some people might take advantage of this I am better then you are. Like a king might make you do stuff that you don’t want to do. And that is not right. -
Sedentarization Turning Point
The turning point in Sendentarization was the part when people didn’t share that much it was when some people thought they owned certain lands and thought that they didn’t have to share it. Some of the people became greedy and so that was one of the turning points during the Sendentarization period. Another problem was that they did not know who to trade to but then they created a certain job called merchant. Another turning point is the social hierarchy people were judged differently.
