No, the Babylonians and the Romans are not the same; they are distinct ancient civilizations. The Babylonians thrived in Mesopotamia, particularly in the region of modern-day Iraq, around the 18th century BCE, known for their advances in law, astronomy, and literature. The Romans, on the other hand, emerged much later, in the 1st century BCE, in the Italian peninsula, and are known for their vast empire, engineering, and legal systems. Each civilization has its unique history and contributions to human culture.
