city-states that surrounded Mesopotamia were connected by the Akkadian Empire. Making this individual the first leader of the first empire.

Not even Mesopotamia.

Hello folks, I want you to do a little more research to discover if Mesopotamia was really the Cradle of Mankind's Civilisation. You must discover the highway of the great Sea Monsters and where they first originated then such a claim can be justified! The Holy Bible tells of at least two monsters one of the land and the other which dominated the waters of the planet Earth. Clay tablets and writings tell age of life on Earth just far and no further. They are monsters that presently walk and swim this planet but they are called myths all because Scientists do not want to dismiss Darwin's Theories of Evolution. Let Darwin tell you if fire is originated through evolution or even 'THE WIND! What was there before either of these two entities? The answer to this question is quite simple and very easy but I am curious as to what the PROFESSORS of Earth answers!

Where can I find full episode of this?

People forget about Indus valley civilization

Te hablan de solo cosas . Vamos empezar hablar de Guerras . Historias

The Greeks founded Mesopotamia, hence the greek name. Greeks were the first inhabitants and its very well know to those you make an effort and research the truth, instead of believing uneducated people, promoting cheap mainstream propaganda. The Greeks are the oldest and have literally existed for hundreds of thousands of years as anthropological findings (archehuman of Petralona 700 000bc ) genetic studies have proved. Didnt expect anything else from barbarians. One thing is true, truth is hidden and history must be rewritten. Everyone has copied the Greeks and present greek inventions as their own because they have nothing.

Thank you random lady for my homework :)

عراقنا العظيم

mesopotmian baddies slay

Isn't that a part of Africa?

Mesopotamian civilization completely disappeared after the medieval Mongol/Timurid invasion, not the Persian invasion in the 5th century BC.

I do not know why the light of Iraq is dim now, despite the fact that he lived in the oldest civilizations in the world, and he was the first to invent writing and laws. There is a lot in Iraq that must be discovered. I hope that my country will receive attention as in the past.

So they were black,,good to know that!!☺️☺️☺️

GILGAMESH ,WHERE ARE THOUGH..

Maturity is when you accept that the Aliens did it and not humans.

The modern world is grateful to the Mesopotamians for almost everything they were the beginning of human civilization

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 i think you know about jambudweep

I wonder how the Civilizations of Mesopotamia and Indus valley civilizations prosper at the same time, do they have any contacts or they developed independently is the big question, like in Mesopotamia, Indus valley civilization also have developed agricultural practices and construction of the cities with swimming pools and other planned buildings with drainage facilities, it's also very beautiful to know about our rich history 😍❤🌍🙏

Iraq land of civilization that usa destroyed

no wonder why the Americans wanted in

I also wondering about why Hollywood dont make any film about impires of mezopotamia. Medes Mitannis Hittites sumerians Gutians Hurrians ect. The great war of Kawa The Balcksmith attacked Assuria and after that created The Median Impire.

Kurdistan history

Modern world always hide the father of all civilization the sumerians! Greek, roman, persian were just a. Child

The bible don't get the love it deserves.

Great informative video about mesopotamia 💫💫

I remember when we need to memorize the whole timeline of this Civilization even their Rulers, Tradition and more for an Exam and we said to our teacher "Why not just Memorize the whole book" he laughed at us and said "that's a good idea too" so in the next exam we already knew the answer

Even though mesopotamia was the birthplace of civilisation and the beginning of writing everyone came from Africa

Wait let me get this straight. They created the 60 second minute 60 minute hr and 360 degree circle had a clear picture of the sol system yet none of there story's of gods and kings are taken as fact. I find this perplexing. I sense suppression and secrets.

There are more than 100 words in common between the Georgian and Sumerian language :) habitus

From the land of mesopotamia
I came here to give a like, a comment, and most importantly..the memory of me watching something that makes me proud of being an Iraqi ❤🇮🇶

Mesopotamia is another Greek word.
Meso: middle, between
Potamia: River (hippo potamus - horse of the river)
Between two Rivers
