Sadly History tells us that man’s conquest for external power instead of the power of self mastery has left many Civilizations throughout history in the ruins of warfare and destruction. Earth has survived as a Paradise for Humanity despite man’s past ignorance. Perhaps it is time to return to the Guidance of the Divine Feminine for the Healing and Restoration of Mankind on Earth Today. – A Smith
For 300 years, from 900 to 600 B.C., the Assyrian Empire expanded, conquered and ruled the Middle East, including Mesopotamia, Egypt, the eastern coast of the Mediterranean, and parts of today’s Turkey, Iran and Iraq. Since around 1250 B.C., the Assyrians had started using war chariots and iron weapons, which were far superior to bronze weapons. These tools and tactics made the Assyrian army the most powerful military force of its time, both doctrinally and technologically advanced.
Ashurbanipal was the last great Assyrian king. After his reign of 42 years, the huge empire began to fall apart. It had become too large, taxes were too high and entire regions rebelled. In 612 B.C., Nineveh itself was razed by a host of Persians, Babylonians and Medes. The great Assyrian empire was over.
