Can you help me find a travel brochure on Mesopotamia for school?

Help with info about Iraq (for son's school project)?

• My son has a project due in Social Studies. He has to create a "travel brochure" on Iraq. I am having no luck finding information for him. The only info. we can find is about the war, terrorism, etc. If anyone can help out, that would be great. Websites, info, etc... Here is what he needs: -4 areas of interest (what will tourists see) -what is there to do for fun -how is the climate -what language do they speak -accomadations -travel (cars, llamas? lol) -what they eat -government -currency exchange I really do appreciate any help. He tried finding information at school as well, but couldn't really find anything. p.s. sorry for the llama thing- my husband wouldn't stop. he says that is how they travel. So far, we have the baghdad zoo- at least it's a start. :(

• Answer:

  Come on, I know there's a war going on there, but I googled Iraq and the first two things that came up were the Wikipedia for it, and the CIA Factbook, both of which have at least some of the information you're looking for. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iraq https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/geos/iz.html Also, as a side note, you might want to mention to your kid's teacher that making someone make a travel brouchure for a war torn country is kind of in bad taste.
