Why did the Chaldeans call themselves Babylonians?

The Chaldeans referred to themselves as Babylonians because they were part of the broader cultural and political identity of Babylon, the prominent city in ancient Mesopotamia. As the Chaldeans gained power and influence, particularly during the Neo-Babylonian Empire, they embraced the Babylonian legacy, including its language, religion, and customs. This association helped unify the region under a common identity, despite the Chaldeans being a distinct group originally from the southern part of Mesopotamia.
