Here's a list of claims and evidences. Read through all of them and match the evidence to the claim it is supporting.

Draggable item		Corresponding Item
This evidence does not support any of the claims listed.		No civilization can develop without freshwater and fertile soil. The Sumerian civilization had the Tigris and Euphrates rivers which provided water and nutrients for fertile soil. This allowed people to grow crops.
Religion is the most important element of GERS for civilizations to develop.		Civilizations must trade and innovate in order to develop. Although the Sumerian civilization is blessed with good location, it is their trading of food and products that made them one of the most developed ancient civilization.
This evidence does not support any of the claims listed.		Moral values and principles are the most important parts of a civilisation. In the Sumerian civilizations, people were guided by the Gods and Goddesses, leading to kinder behaviours towards each other. This made the civilisations a better place to live in as it was more fair and compassionate.
Economics is the most important element of GERS for civilizations to develop.		How people organised themselves in society contributes to how people function and work with others. In Sumerian civilization, people were categorised into different groups, where they had specific opportunities and roles that contributed to the development of the civilization.
Social structure is the most important element of GERS for civilizations to develop.		Who led the civilization and how it was led are the most important parts that contributed to the development of civilisation. In Sumerian civilization, kings are seen to have been appointed by Gods to rule. They decide on how resources are being used, which affects the development of the civilization.
Geography is the most important element of GERS for civilizations to develop.		What the civilization has created is important to its development. The Sumerian civilization developed technology that made it possible to make pottery and bricks in large numbers quickly. These are important discoveries that left a lasting impact on history.

Which geography elements contributed to the growing of crops to support ancient civilisations?

Being near to dense forest is important because it provides the civilisation a huge variety of wildlife that supports the growing of crops.

The amount of rainfall a place receives affects the type of plants that can be grown.

The temperature of a place affects the type of plants that can be grown.

Having soil with enough nutrients allows a wide variety of crops to grow.

Being close to saltwater like oceans and seas helps civilisation to develop because there is enough water for different crops to grow.

Being close to freshwater ensure that enough food can be grown to feed the people in the civilisation.

Which of these are elements that contribute to a civilisation's economy?

Growing crops and making food was an important part of a civilisation's economy. People had to decide what to grow, find out how to keep extra food safe to eat, and make sure they had enough food for everyone for the whole year.

Exchange items with others is an important part of a civilisation's economy. This exchange happens with people in their civilisation and with people in other civilisations.

An important part of the economy is for people to decide a common place to trade (e.g. market place) and what common language they use to trade.

An important part of the economy is to agree on what to use to represent money, so that people know the value of items.

The building of large houses contributes to a civilisation's economy

Knowing the ways and methods people used for hunting animals and gathering food is an important part of the economy.

Religious practices resulted in specific clothing and fashion trends in ancient civilisations.

Religion provided explanation on mysterious things that happened, helping people make sense of things in nature and science they didn't know about.

Religion usually had beliefs about what happens when someone dies, which gave people answers to big questions about life and death.

Religion led to the development of writing systems, language and education in ancient civilizations.

Social structure tells people what is expected of men and women in society.

Social structure determines the dietary habits of people.

Social structure determines the different styles of art and music that were popular, and how they were developed.

People who are in the lower social groups usually have less opportunties for education.
