Analyze Assyrian civilization downfall

The Assyrian Empire experienced a devastating civil war between King Ashurbanipal and his brother Shamash-shum-ukin, who ruled Babylon. This internal conflict severely weakened the empire, paving the way for its eventual collapse under the combined onslaught of the Medes and Babylonians.

Analyze Babylonian civilization expansion

The Amorites established the Old Babylonian Empire, and under rulers like Hammurabi, they expanded their territory to encompass and take control of the regions previously ruled by the Sumerian civilization.

Analyze Hittite civilization records

Among the major empires of the ancient Near East, the Hittites left behind records that were lost for millennia until archaeological rediscoveries in the 19th and 20th centuries. Compared to the extensive, continuous historical traditions of Mesopotamia and Egypt, historians historically knew far less about the details of their civilization.
