Akkadian Empire

The empire collapsed after the invasion of the Gutians. Changing climatic conditions also contributed to internal rivalries and fragmentation, and the empire eventually split into the Assyrian Empire in the north and the Babylonian empire in the south.

Akkadia was the world’s first empire. The north-south extent of the empire meant that it covered regions with different climates, ranging from fertile lands in the north which were highly dependent on rainfall (one of Asia’s “bread baskets”), to the irrigation-fed alluvial plains to the south.

Officially, there are no empires now, only 190-plus nation-states. Yet the ghosts of empires past continue to stalk the Earth.

In order for empires to have existed they had to frequently put down rebellions all over and often killed or enslaves entire peoples to put them down. Even the Soviet Union could no longer get away with it and it broke up.

No, empires certainly aren’t inherently bad, there just carry inherent risks. Think of this way- imagine if a dictator had absolute power over a state. They may even possess supernatural powers, so a coup is impossible, and this dictator can do whatever they want.

In all seriousness though, no, the roman empire as a whole was not evil. They were tolerant of other religions, races and cultures, which cannot be said about most other empires. They were negotiable, and could be brutal in exacting revenge against those who attacked their allies.

Finally, in 476, the Germanic leader Odoacer staged a revolt and deposed the Emperor Romulus Augustulus. From then on, no Roman emperor would ever again rule from a post in Italy, leading many to cite 476 as the year the Western Empire suffered its deathblow.
