(Livy)History isn't fun without war

The few decades or centuries of the development of these civilizations have been uneventful and boring. The only major events were the Assyrians rising, falling, rising, and falling again. Africa and Assyria kept minor conflict during these times, but out of their hatred of each other. Most of this fighting was personal and not at all to strengthen their civilization. This was definitely not the best route to go. Taking your hatred over your civilization can cause the destruction of that civilization. The only reason that Assyria was able to come back so many times from the dead was because of the multiple civil wars occurring in multiple civilizations. Although Assyria would gain land, they would soon be wiped out from famines or epidemics in other civilizations. Assyria did not realize at the time that its actions affected the other nations' views of him. They soon all banned together to get rid of Assyria. From the beginning, this had occurred. So everyone remember your actions can affect your future especially the death of your people in civilization.
