Bronze Empire Falls: Iron Helped Rurals Rise

See bronze power in merchant ships crossing seas. In tin-routes winding far. In palaces counting wealth.

Hear iron whisper in mountain caves. Village hands learning strength in fate’s crude blooms.

Taste fragments in crumbling Hittite walls.

Smell local forges rising like dawn's first breath.

Bronze had more dependencies.

Iron allowed for local power.

It changed everything.
