티그리스 강
The 티그리스 강 (Tigris River) is one of the two major rivers in the 메소포타미아 region, alongside the 유프라테스 강 (Euphrates River). It flows through countries such as 터키, 시리아, and 이라크, covering a distance of about 1,850 kilometers. The river has played a crucial role in the development of ancient civilizations, providing water for agriculture and trade.
Historically, the Tigris River was vital for the growth of the 수메르 and 바빌로니아 civilizations. Its fertile banks supported farming, which allowed these societies to thrive. Today, the river continues to be important for irrigation and transportation, impacting the lives of millions in the region.
