The Assyrians (1/3)

Part One. Consigned to the distant past and to some just a name in history books, the Assyrian Empire rose out of Assur (modern day Iraq) in the 20th century BC. They reached their zenith in the 7th century BC and supreme control of the Middle East.

^ No they werent, at that time the romans still had a decent level of technology, they just didnt have an empire.
Check http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman_Kingdom, they had a senate and decent buildings at around 753BC when the city was founded.
Just because you have an idea or opinion, don`t try to say it as a fact when you clearly do not know.

LOl ^ dude so true, the legioners kick ass. Screw you Ramsen we westerners kick ass, our culture is matched by no other why do think everyone else copies it; the asians try to look white, they drink wine. It`s only because of WW2 that we`re exploited, if we don`t become tolerant and kiss ass then we`re nazis. It`s human nature to dislike other groups, it`s nature. Competition is embedded into our DNA we are animals after all. What do you think will happen when u.s competitiveness comes to a screeching halt? China will take lands that have what they. Now we don`t see competition because there are established boundaries, when one no longer sustains them the other will come to take.

How does drinking wine make asians look white? Does drinking green tea or using "made in China" products make white people look asian? Don`t think so...

Honestly, get educated before you make a comment. Why do you have to fight over who was better or worse? Different circumstances gave rise to different civilizations, just because one came before another doesn`t make it better or worse. By the way Chrisalexan, human nature does not tell us to fear what`s different, we are taught that ever since we were babies. If you threw a white baby into a group of black babies, do you really think segregation and fear would be present? Comparing us to other animals is not a valid argument either, human beings entered into a social contract to rise above and beyond the basic instincts of competition and need. do some logical reasoning before you make such a bold statement about human nature.

I would have liked to see the presentation in video game format, with units being killed and showing stats and stuff.
