Today in class (day 58)
Today in class we continued to watch the great video "Guns, Germs and Steel" about Jared Diamond and his theory.We continued to watch the 6th part of the video about his theory. His theory states that where you are around the world depends on how well you do. Just like how Europe and Asia did very well because they had the animals goats, sheep, horses, donkeys, pigs, Arab camels, water buffaloes, yaks, reindeer, calves, mithen, Bali cattle, and Bactria camels. Crops and animals were also domesticated from the fertile crescent. They came from there because the climate is the same along the same latitude. The people from the fertile crescent also went west ward or east ward because the climate was similar and not harsh. It made living easier and lifestyle better because you did not have to burn up in eat or get cold in wintry weather all year.
