I'll be happy to critique your answers.
1)I believe the development is important so as to prevent the society at large to be run by anarchy since this will lead to a state of no law due to the absence of a governing authority. This needs to be enforced to make everyone understand what the law actually says and demands of them
Good.
please answer for me the second question.
As people turned from hunting and gathering to farming, they needed to supply water for crops in dry areas. Locating near rivers provided water for irrigation as well as for drinking. The ancient Egyptians took advantage of the yearly flooding from the Nile to bring them fertile soil The river also was used as transportation for goods and people, fostering trade with distant peoples.

In order to keep track of the trading, people developed writing to record transactions. Sun-dried brick, made from reeds and sand were used to make buildings.
