Neo-Assyria, for the time, was the largest empire to have ever existed. Having been great before, Ashur-dan II picked up Assyrian conquest in the 10th century BC. His successor, Adad-nirari II took it up from there. Eventually, the empire got stagnant. But along came Tiglath-Pileser III, and he firmed up the empire before his successors, such as Sargon II and Sennacherib, took Assyria to the next level. Sennacherib sacked Babyon, which was restored under the next kings, Esarhaddon and Ashurbanipal. Out of words, so fell 609 to Babylon+.
