Mesopotamia was crossed by two long rivers, the Tigris and Euphrates. These two rivers allowed the development of agriculture. Water from the two rivers was used to irrigate the land near the rivers by building irrigation canals. Good agricultural conditions created prosperity and the rise of rulers who probably co-ordinated the construction of the canals. They appropriated a large part of the harvest, which made them rich.
