Before beer was discovered, humans used to be nomads, looking for new species to hunt in every different territory. When beer was discovered, it made necessary the cultivation of the grains of which beer was made of, and because beer allowed the creation of new technologies for the storage of the grain. As more people reunited in one territory and practiced agriculture and made beer, the first civilizations emerged.
