Which Ancient Civilization Should You Have Lived In?

Ancient China was all about diversity, what with all its dynasties and all. It's no wonder they gave us gunpowder, paper, printing, alcohol and cannons! If you're open-minded, inventive, and in love with diversity, then you should have lived in Ancient China!

If there's anything you should know about Ancient Egypt, it's wealth. They built grand things in grand places, and they had the means to do it. They took rulership very seriously, as well as consequences for their actions, and spirituality. If you're intense about most things, and demand respect above all else, then you should have lived in Ancient Egypt!

It may not have been the oldest, but Ancient Greece was influential, so much so that its history has to be divided into three different periods. They were around for a while! They created the Olympics, democracy and senate, geometry, biology, physics, and more. If you're intelligent, driven, and influential, despite not being the oldest around, then you should have lived in Ancient Greece!

The stuff of myth and legend, Rome was the most successful civilization known to man, and it still fell to a bunch of barbarians. They overthrew their kings, and ruled themselves, were advised by a senate, and saw the rise and fall of great emperors. It's so well-known as a civilization, that the lines 'all roads lead to Rome,' and 'even Rome must fall,' are still used today. If you are popular, and considered pretty great at whatever it is you do, so much so that no one thinks you could ever fail, then you should have lived in Ancient Rome!

The Incan Civilization was the largest Empire in North America in the Pre-Columbian era for a reason. They had a center for all administrative, military and political agendas. They reached success fairly early on. They were spiritual, successful, and respectful of their ancestors. They were great builders, and some of their buildings still exist today. If you're orderly, respectful of family, spiritual, and a great builder (even of just arts and crafts), then you should have been a part of the Incan Civilization!

As the oldest civilization ever, the first on the planet since the evolution of humans, Mesopotamia set the stage for societies as we know them, including establishing the idea of agriculture, and domesticating animals for food and help on the fields. If you're old and wise, or a self-starter, then you should have lived in Mesopotamia!
