How did the Assyrians govern their conquered territories?
They exchanged aristocracies between different provinces, so that the new rulers would not be sympathetic to uprisings by the people. This happened, eg, to the ten northern tribes of Israel, whose aristocracies were sent to govern in Assyria and were replaced by an aristocracy from there. The people remained in place, under firm alien rule. The Babylonians copied this technique later when they captured the southern kingdoms of Judah and Benjamin, sending their aristocracies to Babylon to rule there.

Also present-day republics that used to have a king or emperor still have an aristocracy, such as Italy, France and Russia. The political influence of those aristocracies often is minimal, with the possible exception of Great Britain.
