1 gen 612 anni a. C. - Fall of Assyria

Descrizione:

The city of Assur, along with the rest of the empire, fell to an alliance of Medes, Persians, and Neo-Babylonians, ushering in the Neo-Babylonian Empire (Mark, “Assyria”). The Assyrians believed that the gods would only bless them if they were undefeated, so when they were defeated, the empire fell quickly and decisively (Green and Meyer).
