Detailed explanation-1: -The Indus River Valley Civilization, 3300-1300 BCE, also known as the Harappan Civilization, extended from modern-day northeast Afghanistan to Pakistan and northwest India.
Detailed explanation-2: -The two rivers that defined the Indus River Valley civilization are the Indus River and the Ghaggar-Hakra River. While both run roughly parallel to each other through a wide river valley, they are very different rivers.
Detailed explanation-3: -The Indus is very important to the economy of the region through which it flows. Although much of the land is very dry, farming is possible because river water is used for irrigation. The main crops grown in the region are sugarcane, wheat, rice, and cotton. Fish caught in the river include hilsa and trout.
