Answer:

One of the reasons for the success of early civilizations such as the Egyptians and the Mesopotamians was: C) they were geographically protected from outside invaders.

Explanation:

All right, this is a very tricky question so be very cautious with it. This type of civilization was geographically protected. Many like the Egyptians for bodies of water and cataracts. But they were also protected by mountains and regions with difficulty in the weather. Another example of this is the Europeans being protected by the alps and other mountain ranges. The Mesoamericans like the Mayas and the Olmecs by the Mexican mother mountain range. The Incas and the amazonian tribes and cultures by the river, the mountains and the jungle.
