Nabopolassar
Nabopolassar (; Akkadian: ''Nabû-apal-uṣur''; 658 BC – 605 BC) was a king of Babylonia and a central figure in the fall of the Assyrian Empire.〔D. Brendan Nagle, ''The Ancient World: A Social and Cultural History'', 6th ed., Upper Saddle River, N.J.: Pearson, 58.〕 The death of Assyrian king Ashurbanipal around 627 BC resulted in political instability. In 626 BC, a native dynasty arose under Nabopolassar, a former Assyrian official. Nabopolassar made Babylon his capital and ruled over Babylonia for a period of about twenty years (626–605 BC). He is credited with founding the Neo-Babylonian Empire. By 616 BC, Nabopolassar had united the entire area under his rule.〔Van De Mieroop, Marc. 2007. A history of the ancient near east ca. 3000-323 Blackwell Publishing.〕
==Military campaigns and achievements==
After the death of King Assurbanipal around 627 BC, the Babylonians revolted. Nabopolassar claimed the throne of Babylon in 626 BC.〔(Lendering, Jona. "Nabopolassar", Livius.org )〕 He battled Assurbanipal's son, Ashur-etil-ilani for control of Babylonia. Nabopolassar formed an alliance with Cyaxares of the Medes to confront the Assyrians and their Egyptian allies. By 615 BC he had seized Nippur.〔(Sack, Ronald Herbert. ''Images of Nebuchadnezzar'', Susquehanna University Press, 2004, ISBN 9781575910796 )〕 He then led his forces to assist the Medes besieging the city of Ashur, but the Babylonian army did not reach the battlefield until after the city had fallen.〔
