The Akkadian empire had many clever Achievements • One of them was that they had a military leader called Sargon who had very clever strategies and had a large army • Another achievement is that they created a 3D form called a stele • Lastly they created their own language
The Babylonian empire had the most political achievements • The Babylonians had a leader, named Hammurabi who treated the people fairly • Hammurabi created a code of laws that wasn’t fair to everyone but involved mostly everybody • The Babylonians also made sure that women and slaves had some rights like owning property
The Assyrian empire had many clever achievements until they fell • One of them was that they could bring water from 30 miles using pipes called Aqueducts • Another one is that they had new strategies like attacking the wall over and over again • Also they made 2D forms of the kings hunting, fighting or relaxing they were called bas- relifs
The neo- Babylonian had the most clever achievements • First they created the first sundial • Then they created the 7 days of the week and 60 minutes per an hour • They also created one of the 7 wonders of the ancient world called the Hanging Gardens of Babylon.
