Who is the sponsor of Babylon's hanging gardens?

Nebuchadnezzar II.Nebuchanezzar II, rule of Babylonia from 605 to 562 B.C., brought the capital city of Babylon back to its former grandeur- and then some! Destroyed by the Assyrians around 689 B.C., the city was rebuilt by Nebuchadnezzar, who decorated temples and palaces with lavish gold and silver ornamentation, making it the most magnificent city of the day. Nebuchadnezzar's most noted contribution to the glory of Babylon was a series of terraced gardens called the Hanging Gardens of Babylon. Kept lush and green by an elaborate irrigation system, these towering gardens were considered one of the seven wonders of the ancient world. Nebuchanezzar may have built the gardens to please his wife, who was from Mede and missed the forested mountains of her homeland.Courtesy of Kids Discover 'Mesopotamia'


Modern country of babylon?

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.

Is faded glory an oxymoron?

No. An oxymoron is when a noun is described with a most antonymous adjective, like 'peaceful war'. For a noun that will match 'faded' for an oxymoron, 'faded illumination', 'faded lustre', 'faded shine', 'faded dazzle', 'faded light' or 'faded fluoroscence' will do. For an adjective that will match 'glory' for an oxymoron, 'horrible glory', 'hideous glory', 'terrible glory', 'ugly glory', 'distalentful glory' or 'useless glory' will do.
