He defeated the Cimmerians and Scythianshe tried to invade Egypt in 601 BC. He stopped rebellions in Jerusalem in 597 BC, where he expelled King Jehoiakim, then in 587 BC where he burned the temple, actions mention in the books 2 Kings and Jeremiah and 2 Chronicles of The Bible. He sieged Tyre (585-572 BC). After all of this, and another failed invasion of Egypt and successfully conquering Phonecia, he stopped warfare and focused on domestic improvements.

He was the King of Babylon from about 605 to 562BC. He built fortification walls,a huge temple and a ziggurat -that was rectangular tower-like building. He conquered Palestine. He destroyed Jerusalem, and for the Jews the "Babylonian Captivity" had started. He built the Hanging Gardens of Babylon -he built it for his wife, Amytis of Media, who missed the flowers and wealth of nature of her birthplace (it was considered one of the "Seven Wonders of the Ancient World" - it was a multi-levelled garden reaching 22 metres height, a special machinery was built in to circulate water, as a result, large trees grew on the roof).
