It was basically a low rainfall area, but the Tigris and Euphrates river flood plains ran through it, and had annually-renewable soil from the flooding rains in the northern mountains. With irrigation from the rivers, the river valleys were very fertile and productive.
Yes, the Syrian Desert is located south of Mesopotamia.
The desert near Mesopotamia is the Arabian Desert. It lies to the southwest of Mesopotamia, which is primarily situated between the Tigris and Euphrates rivers in modern-day Iraq and parts of Syria and Turkey. The Arabian Desert is characterized by its arid conditions and vast stretches of sand dunes and rocky plateaus.
The fertile Euphrates and Tigris River valleys surrounded by desert, mountains and the Persian Gulf.
The desert surrounding Mesopotamia significantly influenced its development by acting as a natural barrier that limited invasions and created a sense of security for its civilizations. However, the harsh desert environment also posed challenges, such as water scarcity and extreme temperatures, which necessitated the development of advanced irrigation systems to support agriculture. This reliance on irrigation led to innovations in farming techniques and social organization, ultimately shaping the economic and political structures of Mesopotamian societies. Additionally, trade routes through the desert connected Mesopotamia to other regions, facilitating cultural exchange and economic prosperity.

The world of Mesopotamia was full of dangers from the outside, however. Unlike Egypt, protected by the desert on either side, the people of Mesopotamia had to contend with aggressive neighbors. The Hittites came in 1550 b.c.e. and the the Assyrians in 1200 b.c.e. Both used iron weapons and were cruel conquerors, the first of many in world history.
