The document describes three ancient civilizations - Babylonia, Assyria, and Persia. It details how Babylonia was originally a rich trading city until it was invaded by Assyria. However, Babylonia was rebuilt stronger by King Nebuchadnezzar and became the dominant power in the region. Meanwhile, Persia grew as a religious center that influenced modern civilization and freed Jews held captive in Babylonia.

Imagine Dragons- “Demons”
Babylonia, Assyria, and Persia

2. There was a city named Babylonia
It was a center of trade
It was so rich because it was a
Crossroads in between countries

3. Assyria to the north
Sumer to the south
They thought they were good
But really they were trapped
They still had lots of money
But that’s no good
When you are being invaded
When you are being invaded

4. Assyria came in
And they had one goal
They tried to take over
They tried to take over
Babylonia----
They had no chance
Babylonia no more
Babylonia no more

5. Assyria was now
All powerful
No one dared to try and fix their roles

6. Assyria was under threat
Because their land was open
And easy to attack

7. So Assyria became skilled
They made the battle ram
And used their arrows
And had helmets

8. And their big swords
That they swung around
But wait who is that
IT’S BABYLONIA!

9. Babylonia came back
Twice as powerful
Thanks to the king
King Nebuchadnezzar
He protected Babylonia
With all his life
He surrounded it with walls
So no one could invade

10. Babylonia was now the center
of the continent
It had large castles and big
gardens,

11. The city was back on track
With education
But wait hold the phone
WHAT ABOUT PERSIA!

12. Persia was a city that flourished greatly
They worshipped one God
They spread their religion through
trade

13. The freed the Jews
That Babylonia captured
Today Persia shapes our
Modern civilization
