The Code of Hammurabi.
After the fall of their civilization- the Assyrian and Babylonian people ruled that land and their empires fell- the Assyrians in 612 BC and the Babylonians in 539 BC. The Assyrians and Babylonians were ( and still are) also Semites. Assyria was established as a northern kingdom in Mesopotamia and Babylonia was established as a southern kingdom of Mesopotamia. During the Assyrian and Babylonian rule, their nations would engage in much conflict with each other. Between these periods of time and even during it, these nations made great progress in science, mathematics such as medicine, astronomy, law and so forth. The bow, plough, wheel and writing was developed in Mesopotamia using cuneiform as written expression. The Assyrians were the first people to divide the circle into 360 degrees, created the foundations of longitude and latitude for geography and they also invented the calender. " ' The Assyrians were the first to count the number of days in a year, to divide a year into 12 months, a week into 7 days. The Assyrians counted that a day has 24 hours, an hour- 60 minutes. ' " The Babylonians formed an advanced positional numbering system with a base of 60. These nations epitomized ancient warfare with their iron weapons, formations in their armies, imperial administration systems and authoritarianism. King Hammurabi of Babylonia established the Hammurabi code as law and imposed it as law for the Babylonians, and the Assyrians established their own original civil laws as well- which inspired the Babylonians to do the same. Unfortunately, these nations fought against each other for natural resources, land, wealth and power. Their empires grew arrogant in their convictions and wanted more power. Mesopotamia stretched at one point across western portions of Iran, Syria, Jordan, Israel, Egypt and Turkey. The Assyrians and Babylonians ended up conquering one another's land and resources for themselves at some points. However, in 612 AD, the Babylonians with the assistance of the Medes or modern Persians invaded and defeated Assyria and the Assyrians. In the aftermath of that, Cyrus the great and the Persians invaded and conquered Babylon, thus wiping Babylon off the map forever. Mesopotamia fell to the Achaemenid Persian empire.
