Abstract
God has given Iraq many gifts. These gifts have contributed to the development of Iraqi society over its long history by changing its lifestyles and transforming it from a primitive area to an urban and suburban area. The great impact of the formation of communities and cities on the banks of the Tigris and Euphrates for thousands of years and the exploitation of fertile land in agriculture and grazing, so-called the land of Iraq “the land of blackness” because of the large areas of cultivated land and the spread of green areas throughout [1].
