Summary

Babylon was an old city that was home to some of the world's most effective empires. It was the capital of the Babylonian Empire and was considered a center of commerce, art, and more. It's thought to have been the world's biggest early city, perhaps the first to reach a population of more than 200,000 people.

The age-old city featured high embankments put up along both banks of the Euphrates River to include the river's seasonal floods.

What was it about the Babylonians that was considered so evil? Or what was it that kept their society together for so long? What is their significance now?

In this book, I hope you will find some answers.
