The amount of times I heard about Babylon without actually learning anything about Babylon is completely wild to me.

For anyone curious:

• The Babylonian empire was located between the rivers Euphrates and Tigris in today’s Iraq.
• It looks they may have invented law.
• Their writing looked quite spiky
• The hanging gardens of Babylon probably never existed (despite being one of the 7 ancient world wonders)
• Nebuchadnezzar was apparently one noteworthy ruler
• mostly tho, the city of Babylon had nice architecture and was overall quite rich.

Feel free to correct me on anything, and go as far into detail as you want.
