The 3rd millennium BC spans the Early to Middle
Bronze Age. It represents a period of time in which
imperialism, or the desire to conquer, grew to prominence, in the city states of the Middle East, but also throughout Eurasia, with
Indo-European expansion to Anatolia, Europe and Central Asia. The civilization of Ancient Egypt rises to a peak with the
Old Kingdom.
World population is estimated to have doubled in the course of the millennium, to some 30 million people.
