Assyrian Warfare

From about 900 B.C. Assyrian kings sent out their armies to conquer new lands. Over 300 years Mesopotamia and lands further to the east and west became part of an Assyrianempire.

If they rebelled against his rule, or refused to give tribute, the king would lead his army against them.
