Guns Germs and Steel

Today in class we almost finished watching the documentary called Guns, Germs, and Steel. We mostly went over the topic of geographic luck, including how certain countries were more fortunate than others. Most places in the world weren't fortunate enough to have animals like horses, cows, pigs, goats, mules, or camels native to their country. However, places like asia and europe did have a few native species. The key to a successful nation would rely majorly on domestication of animals and plants. Plants like wheat, barley, corn, beans, and yams have lots of benefits when grown domestically. Im looking forward to finishing this documentary, as I find this topic very interesting!
