Why some places grew rich, sentence 2

Real wealth came from many things at once: geography, trade, skills, schools, good laws, inventions and sometimes taking from others; historians still argue which mattered most, and the answer is different for each place.

Who acts: Real wealth, historians, answer · What happens: come, take, argue, matter, be · To what, where: geography, many things, others · Speech: someone speaks here
