Why might the Chaldeans have decided to send many Israelites to live in Babylon?
The Chaldeans adopted the Assyrian system of control of conquered peoples, of exchanging aristocraices between different areas, so the ruling aristocracy was unsympathetic to the locals and would not tolerate uprisings. The Assyrians had previously exported the aristocracy of the 10 northern tribes of Israel to Assyria and brought in a new one from there to rule them. Now the same thing happened to the upper classes of Judah and Benjamin in the south - sent by the Chaldeans to rule around Babylon, with a new foreign ruling class moved in to replace them.

How did the treatment of the conquered Jewish people differ when the Persians conquered the Chaldeans?
They had moved the aristocracy of Judea to Babylon and replaced them in Judea with one from Babylon. This was the way the Assyrians and the Chaldeans kept down conquered peoples - an imported foreign aristocracy would be unsympathetic to the people they ruled and would stop uprisings. So the Judean aristocracy was moved to Babylon to ule a different people there. When Persian king Cyrus took over the Chaldean and Syrian empires, he allowed the Jewish aristocracy the choice of staying in Babylon or going back to Judaea to try to reclaim their old estates there. Half elected to stay in Babylon where they already controlled estates, the rest went beck to Judea where the lower classes of the Jews had remained; some were successful some weren't.

What happend to the Jews in denmark?
If you mean Jewish people, then yes, and there still is. In the beginning of the 1930's many Jewish people moved to Denmark, to flee from Hitler and his anti-semitic way of life. In the beginning of the occupation, the Germans did nothing to the Jewish people of Denmark. But when they suddenly arrested 12 of the most prominent Jewish people, they started to flee to Sweden, with the help of danish resistance men, and local fishermen. After the war, the Jewish moved back to Denmark, many surprised by coming back to intact houses, thanks to their generous neighbors taking care of them. It's no certainty, but there's estimated to be around 5-7000 Jews in Denmark today.
Is it true or false that after the Assyrians captured a city they allowed the conquered people to remain in their homeland?
This is false. The Assyrians deported a large segment of the conquered population so that they could be enslaved or moved to a place where they would feel no connection to the land, which would pacify their resistance.
How many Jews moved to the other part of the Persian Empire?
When the Babylonian Empire conquered Judah and Benjamin they did their usual trick of deporting the Jewish aristocracy and brought in a foreign aristocracy to rule and keep the lower classes quiet. Assyria had previously done this to the 10 northern tribes. When Persia took over the Babylonian Empire, it allowed the exiled aristocracy to return to Judea and try to reclaim ancestral land. About 40,000 accepted the offer, the remainder staying in Babylon where they had established themselves.
What lead to the downfall of Assyria?
The Assyrian Army was constantly fighting. It usually won! In the process of constantly fighting battles, it continually lost good solders. The army wore down. In addition, it did not have an effective way of subjecting its empire. The captured peoples became under Assyrian rule. Some of the richer native people moved away. Strangers moved into the area. Other that that, the people were a conquered people. They owed no allegiance to Assyria. Given the chance, they would join a rebellion. Nebuchadnezzar became the king of Babylon. He attacked and captured a few Assyrian towns. Then he met two armies. He destroyed them. With the Assyrian army destroyed, Nebuchadnezzar captured the rest of the Assyrian Empire. So Assyria fell through misgovernment of its conquered territories and constant warfare.
