Both had Semitic people. Assyria was once in the Babylonia Empire. Both built great cities where culture and learning were valued.
The difference could be based on climate. Since Assyria was a highland region, north of Babylonia, it had a more invigorating climate than Babylonia. Also the Assyrian culture was deeply indebted to that of the Babylonians, the Hittites and the Hurrians. The religion was adopted from the Babylonians except that Ashur the presiding god of the city of Ashur became the chief deity of Assyria. It was animistic nature worship.
Well both of them were empires and they both had a kin that ruled them. Finally they both invented something. Babylonia invented roadways and Assyria invented the battering ram.
The Hittites were an Ancient Anatolian people who established an empire at Hattusa in north-central Anatolia at north of Babylon who lived at the same time when dealing Babylon was a most for top power cities of the time.

In 612 B.C.E., the Babylonian Empire was revived after the city of Nineveh was sacked to the ground. In 539 B.C.E., it was invaded by the Persians and ceased to exist as a empire (with a brief time of independence from 522-520 B.C.E.).

Which cuneiform are you refering to? Akkadian? Babylonian? Sumerian? Hittite? Old Persian? Ugaritic? Hittite cuneiform is kind of an anomaly because it is Indo-European language rather than Semitic.
