    About this audiobook

    This is a book that contains 4 different books. These are:

    1: Assyria, frequently referred to as the Assyrian Empire, was a Mesopotamian kingdom and empire in the Ancient Near East that lasted from maybe the 25th century BC (in the form of the Assur city-state till its collapse between 612 BC and 605 BC, covering the Early to Middle Bronze Age to the Late Iron Age.

    2: 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.

    3: The term "Phoenicians" describes the people living in Phoenicia, a sometimes-forgotten civilization that was age-old and remarkable. Let's check out the tradition, the history, and the specifics of Phoenicia.

    Phoenicia was a thalassocratic (a state with mostly maritime worlds) society that thrived in the eastern Mediterranean's Levant area, mainly in modern-day Lebanon. It was fixated the coast of Lebanon, with some seaside parts of modern-day Syria and Galilee included for good procedure, varying as far north as Arwad and as far south as Acre and perhaps Gaza. Phoenician civilization stretched the Mediterranean from Cyprus to the Iberian Peninsula between 1100 and 200 BC.

    4: Whether you have played a Prince of Persia video game, seen the movie, or just heard about it in history class, it is hard to ignore the Persian Empire, which was among the greatest empires of the world for some time. The typical area for the Persian Empire was what is now Iran. The Persians had a vast influence on surrounding countries and regions. Their style, art, music, rule, and culture has had an influence on the development of science and the forming of nations.

      Might have good information, but I wouldn't know it through the snoozeworthy delivery of the narrator. Could be good for putting you to sleep at night.
    • 5/5
      This audiobook was definitely worth paying attention to, in my view. The 5 stars really should be 6 stars. Yes, that's right. You heard me well. I think it's so good that it ought to have 6 stars. Not only did this book sound like it was excellent quality, but it also taught me essential things about life, and about this topic in particular, obviously. So, it definitely deserves a couple of hard-earned stars.
