Explain why mesopotamia became a great place for civilization to grow ? what factors encouraged humans to settle and thrive i this part of the world?

The Tigris-Euphrates river system, where Mesopotamia started, was an area prone to frequent flooding. The flooding deposited valuable silt onto the land and enabled crops to be grown and harvested in surplus. This was the first time farmers had an excess of what they needed. The surrounding land was devoid of most other raw materials, such as wood, stone and metal. To get these materials, the early Mesopotamians resorted to trade. At these gathering hubs, people began constructing buildings, which formed the basis for the first cities to appear and helped civilizations continue to develop.
