But remember from last semester, we discussed the steppes and how, because it's grassland, you can't actually farm there. It's very hard to farm there. So they developed a new economy called nomadic pastoralism, which is to say that they raised sheep, goat, and cows, and they migrated from one area of the grassland to the next. Okay? And as a result, they became very strong, very aggressive people. And again, because of overpopulation, because of climate change, these people are now forced to migrate to Europe. Okay?
