The Hittites were ultimately defeated by a combination of invading forces and internal strife. Around the late 13th century BCE, the Sea Peoples played a significant role in destabilizing the region, contributing to the decline of the Hittite Empire. Additionally, rival powers, such as the Assyrians and the Phrygians, capitalized on Hittite weaknesses, leading to their eventual collapse. By the end of the 12th century BCE, the Hittite state had largely fallen apart.
