Life as a Mesopotamia

I am a Sumerian from Mesopotamian area. I have survived the rain, but there is something I made that helps water my crops. Our ruler is mean and just wants to fight and have war. There are not much to eat so I raise animals for a living. In Mesopotamia it a land between two rivers, the Tigris and the Euphrates . The rains are seasonal in my area, which means that the land floods in the winter and spring and water, and sometimes (water) can be scarce at times. Farming in in my farming region depended on irrigation from the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers, this is not easy. In my time, many resources in Mesopotamia were scarce or absent, we depend on trade with other regions and beyond. Mesopotamia growing to become a powerful empire, flooding and the scarcity of water can damage crops and farming life.
