ancient history assignment, yr 12.
question: "the khmer empire's capital angkor was the largest pre-industrial city in the world. Professor Roland Fletcher of Sydney University's Greater Angkor Project believes the site was ...the Los Angeles or greater New-York of ots time... What were the factors that enabled the Kmher empire to develop such a powerful and monumental city?
i have a hypothesis which is something like:
"The factors that allowed Angkor to become so powerful were its geography and its access to an abundant supply of water due to its massive artificial reservoirs."
i need help with how to elaborate my point. How did the geography and, more importantly, the water reservoirs, aid Angkor in becoming the great city it was? any relative information will be VERY much appreciated. the draft for this is due tomorrow and i am just starting. my fault i know but i am doing it now haha.
