The Neo-Babylonian Empire, like the earlier Babylonia, was short-lived. In 539 B.C., less than a century after its founding, the legendary Persian king Cyrus the Great conquered Babylon. The fall of Babylon was complete when the empire came under Persian control.
- Beginning as an Akkadian town, Babylon remained the seat of the Babylonian civilization for over thirteen centuries.
- It may have been the first city in the history of the world to reach a population over 200,000 people.
- Among the most important contributions of Babylonia are the first ever positional number system; accomplishments in advanced mathematics; laying the foundation for all western astronomy; and impressive works in art, architecture and literature.
