each conquered land was ruled a governor chosen from its people
The Assyrians and Chaldeans wanted to get power so they can rule over the Israelites.
The Chaldeans adopted the Assyrian system of control of conquered peoples, of exchanging aristocraices between different areas, so the ruling aristocracy was unsympathetic to the locals and would not tolerate uprisings. The Assyrians had previously exported the aristocracy of the 10 northern tribes of Israel to Assyria and brought in a new one from there to rule them. Now the same thing happened to the upper classes of Judah and Benjamin in the south - sent by the Chaldeans to rule around Babylon, with a new foreign ruling class moved in to replace them.

The Israelis say that the "God of the Old Testament" promised the land to the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob (not through the lineage of Esau, Jacob's brother-the Assyrians etc..) The Assyrians and Chaldeans wanted to get power so they can rule over the Israelites.

The Chaldeans joined the Medes because the Chaldeans lost their power so they joined the Medes to fight the Assyrians... wrong!In 652 BC a series of wars broke out in the Assyrian Empire over who should rule. These wars greatly weakened the empire. Sensing this weakness, the Chaldeans led the Medes in attacking the Assyrians. In 612 BC they destroyed Nineveh and the Assyrian Empire. The Chaldeans were not strong and developed nor able to fight against Assyrians. They were just lucky the empire and Babylon were weak and swarming with conflicts...It is also important to note that the Assyrian Empire was a violent and repressive Empire, most non-Assyrians allied with the Medes if they were in a position to do so since the Medes offered a better alternative to the Assyrian government.
A:The Chaldees, or Chaldeans, were a tribe that migrated out of the Arabian desert during the tenth century BCE, to settle in the southern part of Mesopotamia, under Assyrian rule. They overthrew the Assyrians and ruled Babylon briefly in the sixth century BCE.Since the Chaldeans were unimportant until the sixth century BCE, this dates any writings that mention them to this century or later, although of course these writings could contain older traditions.
They used to be hated, because they conquered everyone. They made the conqured their slaves, and they persecuted the conquered people. Today, not alot of people hate Assyrians, expect for a group of Kurds on the internet, but the Assyrians where massacred during the Ottoman period, and Kurds attacked Assyrians villages, and today's Republic of Turkey.The only middle east country, that doesn't mind the Assyrians is Syria.
