+Our bodies are very similar, Captain.
+Ha! ha! Except for... certain parts...
+Our cultural development is also mostly parallel.
 Like you Earthlings, we evolved a society from primitive tribes
 whose main function were to protect themselves from the large reptiles native to our old world.
 The main difference between our two sets of cultures... the split in the paths of our development
 occurred in what would have been your prehistory, say 5000 BCE.
-In your world, the agricultural communities which formed from hunter-gatherer tribes
-were conquered by the more primitive but also more aggressive, migratory herding peoples.
+In your world, the agricultural communities were conquered by the more primitive but also more aggressive, migratory herding peoples.
 This led to a particular kind of sexual and political dominance structure
 which pervaded almost all of your Earth Cultures until the early Twenty First century.

-therefore, the two cultures were isolated until much later
+The two cultures were isolated until much later
 when the technological superiority of the farmers curtailed any major conflict.
