Answers
- Cities were at the center of all early civilizations. People from surrounding areas came to cities to live, work, and trade....
Cities concentrated political, religious, and social institutions that were previously spread across many smaller, separate communities, which contributed to the development of states.
Explanation:
The vast majority of the population in all pre-modern societies have been farmings, living in rural villages and hamlets. However, the fact that a small minority within a society lived in towns and cities, and had the freedom from basic food production activities to engage in trade, administration, art, philosophy, scientific speculation and experiment, and technological invention, allowed complex societies to appear – and for human progress to take place at an ever-increasing pace. Without cities, people would not have progressed beyond the Neolithic.
Living in cities broadened people’s horizons, allowed ideas to spread much more quickly, enabled inter-city trade to expand and ideas, techniques and diseases to travel over long distances much more easily than before.
