Western Civ 1-2

  • Cuneiform
    3200 BCE

    Cuneiform

    It was one of the earliest form of writing and this made it able for them to record the history. I think it fits the timeline because it defitenly was the start of more languages and writing.
  • First Written language
    3200 BCE

    First Written language

    I think this was important because it gave us a written way to communicate and track the history of our worlds for future generations.
  • Irrigation
    3100 BCE

    Irrigation

    This lead to way more productive farms and way more crops to be produced for the Empires.
  • More advanced Agriculture
    3000 BCE

    More advanced Agriculture

    It would be more of small things but this lead to farming for bigger things once Irrigation was founded.
  • Trade
    3000 BCE

    Trade

    This fits the timeline because it was very important to the economy and it was very important for getting good otherwise inaccessible.
  • Bronze being created
    3000 BCE

    Bronze being created

    I find this to be very important because if you think if we never realized how to make bronze we never would've progressed into making other metals in my opinion.
  • Reed boats
    3000 BCE

    Reed boats

    I was looking up what major things were being made in 300 BCE because of my curiosity. I stumbled upon reed boats I thought about it and I think these are actually very important because they not only opened up some trade from water sources but made travel almost all over the world possible as I'm sure the boats got better and better over time.
  • Large-scale warfare
    2700 BCE

    Large-scale warfare

    Upon research, it says the first war took place in 2700 BCE. True or not I strongly believe this was actually a huge part of the building blocks of our nations today. Being able to protect our homeland has clearly been important throughout history and still stands to this day.
  • Astronomy
    1000 BCE

    Astronomy

    Without astronomy, it would've been extremely hard for them to determine the crop rotations. This was an important event because it lead to empires to grow. Said it was recorded in cuneiform at least 1000 BCE
  • Iron being created
    500 BCE

    Iron being created

    Just like the bronze, I think without the finding of bronze and iron ower tools, weaponry and even buildings would not be close to the same at all.
