This one I have no idea.

kohai · Answer

What can you eliminate?

anonymous · Answer

D sounds like it could be eliminated

anonymous · Answer

Umm.. I think I can eliminate A.

anonymous · Answer

Yeah D too.

kohai · Answer

A and D, yes, can be eliminated. So B and C are left. One of them don't really have much to do with geography do they?

anonymous · Answer

Yeah. So the answer would be C, right?

Well...

kohai · Answer

That's what I'm thinking.

kohai · Answer

I'm not sure what written laws have to do with a geographical location.

eclipsedstar · Answer

Why @EclipsedStar ? Could you give an explanation?

Okay, do you have an explanation?

kohai · Answer

If I recall correctly it was a really fertile place, and it suddenly died out. People think it's due to geological reasons, like drought. I guess it could work. It certainly changed history.

eclipsedstar · Answer

Well, the Indus civilization was located in hills and if I recall had in a geographical disaster.

eclipsedstar · Answer

eclipsedstar · Answer

Then it suddenly died out.

eclipsedstar · Answer

anonymous · Answer
