Civilization Overview

Basics
A civilization must have three things to rise above tribal level. Tribes who do not have beasts of burden, farming, or refined metalsmithing do not have the ability or resources needed to expand their tribes to control more territory. Those that have met all three conditions are able to continuously expand and develop their tribe into a society and civilization.
 * Beasts of burden, like horses, llamas, or oxen
 * A quickly grown, and easily mass-produced crop, like rice, corn, or wheat
 * A good source of metals, like copper, iron, and silver

Early Inventions
Additionally, a society would have the following in early times, to have a well-rounded, early civilization.
 * Wheel and axle
 * Plow
 * Surplus food
 * Writing
 * Central Government
 * Religion
 * Specialized workers

Writing
Writing had been invented in two places only: The early Danudas, and the Bayv Norans. All other civilizations modified the writings to match their culture and materials that they could write with.
