Baghdad was the capital of the Islamic world during the rule of the Abbasid Caliphate (750-1258). The city was wealthy and used its wealth to better the lives of those who lived there. As on account from the time states, “All the exquisite neighborhoods covered with parks, gardens, villas, and beautiful promenades are filled with bazaars and finely built mosques and baths that stretch for miles on both sides of the glittering river.”
Baghdad was also a center of learning. Scholars from throughout the Mediterranean world came to the House of Wisdom to study in the city’s libraries and universities. As a result of the coming together of great minds and a spirit of inquiry, scholars made great achievements in math, science, literature, art, and architecture. Trade brought ideas from throughout the world to Baghdad and scholars used those ideas to innovate.

Silicon Valley is an area outside of San Francisco, California that has been the center for computer and internet-based innovation since the late 1900s. It is the home of companies like Google, Facebook, Apple, Intel, Netflix, Hewlett Packard (HP), and many more.
Companies with new ideas and new products called “startups” come to Silicon Valley to find investors called venture capitalists to fund their ideas. Venture capitalists are wealthy individuals or investment groups that give money to new businesses with hopes that they will be a success and that the investors will get a share of the profits for giving money to the company before they were successful.
Silicon Valley is also home to several universities that have nurtured innovation in the technology fields and where many of the leaders in computer and internet business have studied including Stanford University and the University of California at Berkeley.
