ILovePuppiesLol (ilovepuppieslol):

and i think it might be inadequate rainfall on the second one

OpenStudy (wwhitlock):

Emerging from Ice Age. Means not warm winters, they got all raw material and nitrogen the need. It's the rainfall one. And yes, farmland becomes the priority

Because of direct links to dead ancestors and to the supreme god, a warrior class emerged to rule cities and agricultural villages. A system of hereditary occupational groups dominated by priests became centered in two major urban areas. An increase in farming village populations led to a local form of kingship, which spurred conquests of surrounding villages.
