Babylon Independence (627 BC): As a result of the crumbling condition of the Assyrian Empire, Babylon was able to assert its independence, taking control over the city and surrounding Mesopotamian regions.
Among the empires of Mesopotamia, it was the first known Semitic dynasty in the history of the world. The empire was also famous for adopting the Sumerian cuneiform which went into forming the Semitic language. From 2200 BC onwards, Mesopotamia experienced chaotic developments with small city states fighting for power.
