Imagine you are a farmer living in the region labeled "B" on the map during the Bronze Age. Describe your everyday life in as much detail as possible. Be sure to discuss how you make a living, how you relate with other members of your society, and your thoughts on how your society is governed.

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

You did not attach the map, so we do not know what region you are referring to.

However, in order to help you, we can comment on the following general terms.

Everyday life for a farmer during the Bronze Age was a challenge. We had to work very hard from early in the morning to the afternoon in the farm fields. We have developed good agriculture techniques and with the use of many bronze tools, we can make our work more efficient than in the past.

We live in the city of Uruk, one of the most important city-states in ancient Sumeria. We are located in the middle of the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers, in the Middle East.

We have a good relationship with other farmers because we need to cooperate in difficult times, like when we have the flooding of the rivers. This event causes so much destruction but also leaves a fertile soil good to produce crops.

The relationship with other city-states such as Ur., Nippur, Eridu, Lagash, or Kish, is not as good as we would like to be. Our ruler's ambition power and control and that is the reason for many conflicts and wars.
