Mesopotamia was and is located in ASIA but now mesopotamia is called IRAQ. On mesopotamia were three empires their were: Akkadian empire, The babylonia empire and The assyrian empire. In mesopotamia there were two rivers called: TIGRIS and EUPHRATES.
The akkadian empire was the first empire in mesopotamia.The akkadians were the people that conquered the all mesopotamia's city-states. The king of this empire was called SARGON. HE controled all mesopo tamia in the past. I learned two news vocabulary words, and they are:TRIBUTE and CAPITAL. TRIBUTE means wealth sent formone country or ruler to another as a sign that the other is. CAPITAL means city that is the center of the goverment. SARGON was king for 56 years Akkadian lestit for 200 years.we should know when did empire start.
The second empire was called the
BABYLONIA empire. The king of this empire is called HAMMURABI. He worked for united all mesopotamia people to be in his empire. He torrepresent his empire and he made BABYLON the capital of his empire. He used laws with numbers codes and this was the first empire with laws. we should know how the king did all that stuff. I think this empire was famous because it has laws.
The last empire was called the ASSYRIAN empire. The assyrians made a army for protect their empire from anothers.In this chapter i learned a new vocabulary word that was SIEGE. SIEGE means a military blockade and attack a city to force it surrender.and if they win the war from the others they cut the leaders head off, that is so mean.
I should leve in the Babylonia empire because it has rules. one is if you killed someone and some body has proves that that person killed someone you should tell the elders and then they'll kill you back.

Andy,
All you have to do is to write a paragraph about the Neo-Babylonian Empire (hint: Hanging Garderns of Babylon). One paragraph and you will have an A+!

akkadian empire was the first empire. sargon was the king of that empire the two mountains close to the akkadian empire are called zagros mountains and tauruus mountains those are the two mauntains that close to akkadian empire.this empire existed in 2300b.c.e.
babilonia was the second empire.the king of babylonia was hammurabi.there was this code that tells the laws.this empire existed in the 1750 b.c.e. the sumers had to give their stuff to the king.
the code was one thing that we had to know.
assyrians was the third empire.the assyrians made army. they made siege is like a group of people that protect their conuntry. if the people don't do what they say they will cut their haeds of. opinion(that's not fair to kill other peoples son),
neo-babylonia was the last empire.

Andy & Brenda, I have a special present for both of you on Friday and I will give you feedback later tonight.
Andy Rafael,
Don't forget to capitalize your proper nouns such as Akkadian, Babylonian, Assyrian and Neo-Babylonian.
So you liked an eye for an eye!
Good job and good job adding the paragraph about Neo-Babylonia (hard work pays off)!
Brenda,
What does astronomy mean?
Don't forget to capitalize your proper nouns: Iraq, Tigris, Euphrates, Mesopotamia, Assyria, etc...
I liked how you put your opinions next to the facts (ideas) that we learned.
p.s. In Babylonia they would only kill your son if you killed somebody else's son!
