Summary:
Trade explores the civilizing effect of buying and selling goods. In particular, the Indus Valley Civilization - on the borders of modern-day India and Pakistan - was seemingly created with the single purpose of encouraging the free flow of trade. The knock-on effects were massively beneficial - an increase in wealth, co-operation and trust.
