The Akkadin Empire had many achievements. • The biggest achievement was becoming the world’s first empire! • The Akkadins also had a king called Sargon who made Agade one of the richest cities in the world. • A third achievement is that the Akkadins were very talented in Art, especially 3D sculptures.
The Babylonian Empire also made lots of achievements, here are a few. • One of the biggest achievements is the code of laws that Hammurabi wrote and are the earliest known written laws. • A second achievement is that Hammurabi created roads and a postal service which would make people more connected. • A third achievement is that there empire was the longest lasting of the 4, it went for 900 years!
After the Assyrians conquered they made many important achievements. • One of the achievements that we still use today is the advance in warfare, they perfected warfare on horse back and came up with the siege. • A second achievement is the invention of the aqueducts which can deliver water from 30 miles away! • A last achievement was there bas-reliefs, a special 2D sculpture that were very detailed.
The Neo-Babylonians had many great accomplishments. • King Nebuchadrezzar protected people thick walls, moats, towers, and bridges. • Nebuchadrezzar created the Hanging Gardens of Babylon, a wonders temple with many plants coming out of it. • The Neo-Babylonians found discoveries that led to our present day 60 minute-hour and our 7 day-week.
The best empire is definitely Babylon! • One reason it is the best empire is because it had the longest reign so you would have the smallest chance of living during war. • It had the world’s first postal service which would help connect people, help with trade, and make people happier over all. • A third reason is that the laws were unusually fair and I wouldn’t be unfairly punished.
