The Neo-Babylonian Empire (Nabopolassar, Nebuchadnezzar II, Nabonidus)

In this episode we take a look at arguably the most famous era of ancient Babylon's history, the Neo-Babylonian Empire. We'll meet the kings Nabopolassar, the infamous Nebuchadnezzar II and Babylonia's last native king, Nabonidus, who was ultimately overthrown by Cyrus the Great of Persia.

Special thanks to Danny Hussain for doing the voices of the various kings and chronicles.
