The Hebrews sat by the waters of Babylon and wept (Psalms 137) in remembrance of Jerusalem and the holy Temple.
No. Not even close. No country can compare to a legendary, powerful city such as Babylon. Babylon has contributed so much to the growth of mankind, from science, mathematics, economics, diversity, law, language and architecture. Babylon was the first to make human rights into law. Babylon's human right laws, later in history, inspired the United Kingdom to write and enforce the first modern human right laws. America didn't have any such laws until over 100 years after the UK (and Europe) implemented theirs. Even the Ancient Egyptians, Ancient Greek, Ancient Romans and British Empire, some of the most powerful civilisations in history, admitted in literature that nobody will ever be able to replace or replicate the glory of Babylon. The ruins of Babylon sit in Iraq.

The code of Hammurabi was written on stone. The sixth king of Babylon noticed the short reins of cruel kings and decided to write down the code. It is the first example known to us of laws codified.

Scribes...
ancient Egyptian scribes had to write in hieroglyphics on papyrus, as a way of communication. most scribes worked for pharaoh's.
Today the Hatshepsut sent me to were the scribes work. All he asked me to do was get a document. The scribes write in hieroglyphics. They write books and documents and some other things. Scribes were hired as professional writers and recorders of information. Few people can write or know how to read, so scribes are specially trained to write letters and keep accounts. I have no idea what the document was, but I had no time to find out.
