The Middle East is located in the core area of the Asian, African and European continents. It has been a politically fragmented region since ancient times, coveted and controlled by major powers. However, its political weakness has allowed culture to flourish. Its language, culture and religious traditions still have an impact on Western culture. It still plays a vital geopolitical significance today.
This book reviews the history of the Middle East from 1200 BC to 300 BC. It tells the historical context and the splendid and magnificent civilization of the Kingdom of Israel, the Kingdom of Judea, the Phoenician city-states, the Kingdom of Aramaic, the Kingdom of Lydia, the Neo-Assyrian Empire, the Neo-Babylonian Empire... And finally the rise of the Persian Empire.
Reader comments
This book gave me a deeper understanding of the history of the Middle East. As a father of two children, I feel that this book is not only a history book, but also a revelation about the development of human civilization. It reminds me of the development of family and society, where each kingdom and empire has its own unique culture and traditions, just like each child has its own characteristics and potential. By understanding the history of the Middle East, I also understand the importance of cultural diversity, which is a great inspiration for children's growth and education. Recommended to everyone!
