Babylonian Civilization

The founder of Babylonian Civilization belonged to Sematic tribe. This tribe lived a nomadic life close to Sumerian region or Arabian desert. Due to their nomadic life style, they reached in the valley of Euphrates and Tigris. A very powerful ruler of this kingdom, Sargon 1st captured whole of Mesopotamia by 2500 B.C. This great ruler developed a city called Babylon and made it the capital of his kingdom. It was only after this city, this civilization became known as Babylonian civilization. The rulers of this civilization ruled for about 200 years.
