Secrets of the Assyrian Empire
Assyria: the world's first superpower. Four centuries before Persia and nine before Rome, it ruled over the Near East, from the Mediterranean to the Persian Gulf - then vanished. In Iraqi Kurdistan, archaeologists unearth a lost city and a colossal hydraulic network, revealing the engine of this lost empire: a civilisation that mastered water, reshaped the desert, and forged its power from the land itself.
