Mesopotamia
The Assyrians, Persians and Phoenicians are three of the most important Mesopotamian civilizations. The Assyrians were the first to create a successful government. They used the Tigris and Euphrates river for trade. They were also warfare specialists which is important in conquering lands. The Persians had fair government, largely expanded, were tolerant of all people, cultures and religion. The phoenicians colonized around the Meditterranean Sea, used boats for trade and travel and discovered the royal purple in a shellfish.
