Fertile Crescent: Cows are the New Egypt

The people of New Guinea haven't changed their ways of doing things for centuries. Fertile Crescent isn't the power house of the world. Eventually they used up all of their resources in the area; this was due to over exploiting. People that lived in the Middle East were able to expand into modern day Europe, Africa, and Asia. When they reached what is now known Egypt there was a civilization boom. Through this they were able to make more food than you needed. In the 1600’s the Europeans brought animals like cows and grains like wheat to America or the new world. Before they brought them there was not one ear of wheat and no cows. Now there are millions of cows in America and I’m guessing billions of ears of wheat.  Now, were all waiting for New Guinea to catch up to the rest of the world.
