Tigris & Euphrates
|
|
Thousands of years
ago, in the fertile land
between the Tigris and the Euphrates rivers, a new civilization
flourished. The leaders of the powerful and independent kingdoms were
believed to be the earthly representatives of the gods. These leaders
developed this new culture, which would last for thousands of years.
Many of the most important scientific and cultural inventions would
develop under the rule of these leaders. Farmers would discover the
wheel and use it for the oxcarts needed to bring produce to market. The
characters of cuneiform, the earliest form of writing, were invented
long before the Egyptians developed their own hieroglyphics.
Take
care! It is your responsibility to see that your dynasty grows and
prospers in this land. You must use your four leaders: the King, the
Priest, the Merchant, and the Farmer, to accomplish your goal of
forging strong kingdoms out of the fledgling settlements that dot the
landscape.
The key to your victory, however, does not rest in military conquest
alone! You must develop all four areas of civilization: Politics,
Religion, Trade, and Agriculture.
