Greece: OligarchyGreece: Athens v. SpartaGreece: Alexander the Great Being a farmer is working really hard at a farmhouse with a garden you have to take care of every single day and you have to take care of the farm where all the animals are. Farmers can raise crops like grain, fruits, and vegetables. Some of the fruits are dates, grapes, figs, melons, and apples. Also the vegetables are eggplants, onions, radishes, beans, lettuce, and melon. Also the grains like wheat and barley the most important. If you were standing on your own farm it would look like you were in a valley with some crops, animals, and grass. The only thing you would hear are the animals for example like cattle, sheep, oxen, donkeys, and goats. It would smell like the hand grown food and summer paradise peaches while it would be tasting like the foods you have in the garden. It feels like if you are at home while doing your work and not worrying if you are late or not at work. Being a Sumerian farmer is good because it feels good and I like it. One challenge I will face in my culture is that I would have to come to an end by getting slingshot by my enemies and that the floods can destroy my crops, too. I like being a farmer because I get to do new things every day. In conclusion being a farmer is hard work, but fun.
