Im not good at getting my thoughts on paper so i had a hard time doing this.
For conecting I already knew that the first civilizations were in the middle east
For the second collumn when they started talking about how animals and crops can jeopordize a empires future or turn a village to a great empire. It really shocked me when I saw this because it made so much sense. It also changed my look on civilizations. I always thought all the really big ones wher mighty because they conquered other civilizations. It is partially right but farming and animals are way higher on the list of things to do list of a empire.
For the quistions I was wondering if the first people who settled in the middle east knew that the ground was fertile there.
I think the answer is no because when they where traveling they just stoped anywher as the scientist in the movie said.

Fabian. Thanks for sharing, while I think you always have good thoughts, I think you can take them a bit further and deeper.
I'm curious about your thought:
"I always thought all the really big ones wher mighty because they conquered other civilizations. It is partially right but farming and animals are way higher on the list of things to do list of a empire"
According to the movie you watched,how does a civilization become mighty?
You bring in the idea of conquering. Using the same thinking as the movie, how might one civilization conquer another? What might one have that the other doesn't? Think of the 14 factors of civilization.
Please take some time to consider and answer these questions.
