Before Rome, before Egypt's glory, before Alexander or Caesar — there was Sargon of Akkad, standing at the gates of his new city, imagining something the world had never seen: one ruler, one empire, one vision of universal order.

This isn't just ancient history. It's the story of how humanity first learned to think beyond city walls, how ambition and vision can reshape the world, and how even the mightiest empires eventually return to dust.
