In Akkad between Babylon and Nineveh
Babylon
Noach's Ark came to rest in Turkey, Northwest of Babylon which is present day Irac
some empires in Mesopotamia are Babylon,Akkad,and the Chaldean empire
The precise archaeological site of the city of Akkad has not yet been found. Maybe it was destroyed totally but Akkad was in western Iraq close where Babylon has the capital city before they constructed it. So the difference was the time period.
Babylon was the ancient country of Mesopotamia, known originally as Sumer and later as Sumer and Akkad, lying between the Tigris and Euphrates rivers, south of modern Baghdad, Iraq.
The Amorite king who first invaded Akkad was Sumu-abum. He established the first dynasty of Babylon around the early 19th century BCE, marking the beginning of Amorite rule in the region. His invasion set the stage for the rise of Babylon as a significant power in ancient Mesopotamia.
The kingdom of Babylon was formed through the combination of the earlier civilizations of Sumer and Akkad. Sumer, known for its city-states like Ur and Uruk, contributed advancements in writing and agriculture, while Akkad, known for its empire under Sargon, brought political unity and military organization. Together, these cultures laid the foundation for Babylon's prominence in ancient Mesopotamia.
There were 5 Amorite kings in Akkad. The 6th king brought the neighboring areas building the Babylon Empire. His name was Hammurabi. He is known for the code of laws.
There are seven great cities in Mesopotamia. The seven cities are: the Uruk, Akkad, Assur, Babylon, Nimrud, Nineveh, and the Persepolis.
Cyrus the Great was the King of Kings of Persia. He was also the King of Aryavarta, Anshan, Media, Babylon, Sumer, and Akkad. His wife was Amitis Shahbanu.
