The Babylonian Empire, centered in ancient Mesopotamia, rose to prominence in the 18th century BCE under King Hammurabi, who is best known for codifying one of the earliest and most complete written legal codes. The empire was renowned for its advances in mathematics, astronomy, and literature, including the famous Epic of Gilgamesh. Babylon, its capital, was famous for the Hanging Gardens, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, although its existence is still debated. The empire eventually fell to the Persian Empire in the 6th century BCE.
