20 min of class

Today I was in class for 20 minutes because I had to leave at 2:00 for a wrestling match.  In the little bit of time that I was there we arched a small amount of guns germs and still.  In this portion of the video it was shown how the Middle East dried up and was no longer useful for agriculture.  This was because of the excessive farming the area experienced during thousands of years.  After this the people began to move East and west of where they started out in the Middle East.  The people that moved east and west were still largely successful because the climate on the same latitude is similar allowing the people to have the same animals and crops. The people that moved north and south were not as successful because of their location.  Along the same latitude sprang up some of the greatest civilizations such as Rome and Greece and Egypt.  This is because they had the tools necessary from the Middle East.  Then these things were brought to the US that helped to expand its economy.  The US has nearly 100,000,000 cattle now.
