Amorite Kingdoms and the Sumerian Renaissance​

Sargon The Great

A side note: it is mentioned here that Sargons armies used the phalanx formation a technique later on used by the Spartans the strongest formation consisting of a block of heavily armed infantry standing shoulder to shoulder in files several ranks deep. Could the Greeks have learned this technique from the Sumerians? perhaps they are decedents of Sumer that migrated to what was known as Sparta. Or maybe they learned of this formation in battling other Sumerian ancestors of Sargon or even read about the formation and practiced its effectiveness by teachings written down and passed on somehow into Greece? very interesting indeed.

Hammurabi First Babylonian Emperor

Building a dam to weaken his opponent and then flooding them is a very unusual tactic reminds me a beaver building dams in order to build its home must have spent a lot of time studying animals maybe? lol idk sounds crazy but I guess it worked out for this king never herd of this tactic before. His code was a bit extreme as well reminds me of the older testament of some books I don't have to mention but most will know (an eye for an eye.)

I have an interest in the fall of empires as well. They seem to have a common set of patterns from their rise to fall.
