The first empire in the Fertile Crescent was the Sumerian Empire. Then they were defeated by the Akkad's. Then came the Babylonians. They were defeated by the Assyrians. Then the Persians. And finally they were overthrown by Alexander the great and his Greek armies.
It depends on what the question is looking for.
If is is looking for the largest empire primarily based in Mesopotamia, that would be the Neo-Babylonian Empire.
If it is looking for the largest empire with its capital and administration in the Fertile Crescent but controlling numerous other places, that would be the Abbassid Caliphate.
If it is looking for the largest land empire that controlled parts of the Fertile Crescent, that would be the Great Khanate of Ogedei Khan.
If it is looking for the largest empire full stop to have controled the Fertile Crescent, it is the British Empire of 1920.

Babylonian Empire, Sumerian Empire, Assyrian Empire...:) hope this helps
The Persians
The Persian Empire
"The reason why Mesopotaima is called the fertile crescent is because it is a quarter moon that goes from the Syrian Desert to the South Persian Gulf".
<sarcasm> NO, it's only called that. In fact, none of it was fertile </sarcasm> Yes, that was sarcasm The majority is in fact fertile. Kinda why they named it that.
All of those religions were polytheistic, except, perhaps the religion of the Israelites.
The Assyrian Empire.
Actually, Mesopotamia is only the eastern part of the Fertile crescent. The western part included Syria, Jordan, Lebanon, Israel, and Palestine. It is called the fertile crescent because it is a fertile area in the surrounding desert and mountains, and it is shaped in a crescent. It was given the name Fertile Crescent by archaeologist and historian James Henry Breasted in 1906.Its fertility is because of the Tigris, Euphrates, and Jordan Rivers and their tributaries. Unfortunately much of it lost its fertility over a thousand years ago due to salt buildup in the soil from improper irrigation methods.Mesopotamia is shaped like a crescent and the land was very fertile due to irrigation.Mesopotamia is a crescent-shaped territory and has an area surrounded by two rivers namely Tigris and Euphrates River. Soil, a porous matter, absorbs water. The soil constantly absorbs water from the bodies of water surrounding it, thus, making Mesopotamia both fertile and crescent-like, Fertile Crescent.because its near the water and it made all the soil fertile and it sort of looks like a crescentbecause it was near water and a good area to grow crops(: It was also shaped like a crescent.Ancient Mesopotamia was a fertile place in an area that was largely desert, and it was roughly in the shape of a crescent.
no
The Fertile Crescent is located in the Syrian desert and goes all the way to the South Persian Gulf.

Egypt, Israel, West Bank, Gaza strip, and Lebanon and parts of Jordan, Syria, Iraq, south-eastern Turkey and south-western Iran and Kuwait.
All definitions of the Fertile Crescent include Mesopotamia, the land in and around the Tigris and Euphrates rivers.The modern-day countries with significant territory within the Fertile Crescent are Iraq, Kuwait, Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, Israel, Palestine, Cyprus, and Egypt, besides the southeastern fringe of Turkey and the western fringes of Iran.The region is often called the cradle of civilizationThe religion that is dominated in the fertile crescent is Islam, followed by Christianity, followed by Judaism and other religions.
The fertile crescent is not that fertile anymore because of global warming. global warming affects the atmosphere, especially air pollution, and it makes us more vulnerable to the suns heat, as you have noticed maybe that it's very hot lately. the heat has dried up most of the fertile crescent. Well, I may be wrong (although I'm pretty sure I'm not) but I believe the Fertile Crescent is actually no longer fertile because the people who lived there did not practice sustainable farming. Therefore, they exhausted all of the valuable nutrients in the ground.
The land was fertile because of all the silt that entered the ground around the Nile. It had an abundance of crops and vegetation. Also, the shape of the land is was in the form of a crescent: an arc shape. The key elements were the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers which supplied the water which made the fertile land productive and washed down new soil to maintain the fertility.
The three largest empires in west Africa in 400 BC were the Askumite Empire. Carthage, and the Egyptian empire. All flourished well.
