Modern cities arise as agricultural productivity rises, businesses make large factories, large markets form for goods and services, and population increases. Villages and towns become cities. Work becomes more specialized. Religion and priests gain more power. Land management and irrigation begin, and fertility rites end. Political leaders arise. Armies, militias, and police forces form. Bureaucracy develops. Commodity markets start. Food surpluses allow some people not to farm. Some people accumulate wealth.
