indus river valley
location The location of the old civilization was found along the Indus River alluvial plain in South Asia for the water source. I know that because on the website it says "Around 5,000 years ago, a civilization developed along the Indus River alluvial plain (floodplain), in South Asia, due to the large amount of fertile land and proximity to a water source." This expresses that the residents of the land wanted to be near a water source since water is vital for survival.
government The ancient civilization living in the Indus River Valley was ruled by a warrior chief they claimed a king, or as it is more commonly called there, a raja. I know this because is it says on the website "The Aryans lived in ganas, which means "collections". A gana was made up of several families. Each gana had it's own territory, ruled by a warrior chief called a raja or king."

architecture/technology The people in the Indus River Valley used to create very nice cities. I know this because the text says "The people within the Indus Valley created well-planned cities. Specifically, the people during this time cared deeply about hygiene, and their cities resembled the importance of this idea." This shows that the people living here cared about hygiene and wanted to show that.
Writing: The writing is still a mystery today. It can not be deciphered. The text said "Whatever the case, the lack of decipherable texts means that we can gain no real insight into many of the details of Indus society as well as little about its government and politics." This is showing us that there is not much known about them. https://sites.google.com/mccsc.k12.in.us/history-of-south-asia/home
