EQ- Describe the assyrians & Chaldeans
The assyrians were people that lived 1000 years after the Mesopotamians. The Assyrians started out with not much land and built a huge empire. The land had fertile soil which attracted invaders. They built large walls and armies to keep out invaders. The Assyrians were successful because they were organized. They would later fall because of their cruel punishments which caused a civil war. The Chaldeans would be the next great empire after the Assyrians.The Chaldeans were descendants of the Babylonian empire with the king Hammurabi. This new empire was lead by their king Nebuchadhezzer. With their capital city of babylon they quickly became the richest empire at the time. Babylonia was a beautiful town with hanging gardens, beautiful ziggurats, and houses. They would eventually fall to the Persian Empire.
What can I learn from the Pass that can help me in the Future?
I can learn that a problem between a team,government, empire,school, exc. can eventually tear themselves apart. It can bring an empire to the ground like the Assyrians. So it is best not to argue with Teammates,co-workers,exc. If you don't argue amongst yourselves you have a better chance for success. The problem is that Assyria had cruel punishments that caused a civil war. The solution is to find a comprimise with the government where the punishments aren't cruel but they still have punishments. That way the civil war doesn't happen.
EXTRA!
Watch how big the Assyrian Empire became and how quickly it fell.
