One major difference between the people of Sumer and Akkad was their language. The people of Sumer spoke Sumerian, whereas the people of Akkad spoke Akkadian. This difference in language also reflected distinct cultural and political characteristics between the two civilizations.
Sumer was an ancient kingdom.The kingdom of Sumer no longer exists. The artifacts were from Sumer.
They conquered the cities of Sumer, united them, and created Babylonia. The king of Babylonia (Hammurabi) conquered land all the way to Turkey (in his time, Turkey was known as Asia Minor). Because of Babylon's location, caravans, or groups of travelers, kept on traveling to and from cities of Sumer. People bought supplies, such as cotton cloth and spices, from bazaars, or markets. Hammurabi also conquered the city of Mari, and took all their chariots, weapons, and tools. Babylonia invented the pottery wheel, basic math, agriculture, sculpture making, and were the first to begin studying astronomy.
