"Hanna's well-argued and exhaustively researched book will stand as the critical work on early modern British piracy for some time, but it is also essential reading for anyone interested in the development of the empire."--William and Mary Quarterly

From natural beginnings, political systems transition, Kingship to Tyranny, to Aristocracy, to Oligarchy, to Democracy, to mob rule, and then finally a new king arises from the mob, and the cycle begins again.

In an interview with Yale News, Frahm discusses what inspired his own interest in this ancient Mesopotamian empire, what we know about its people, and why its epic rise and fall should still matter to modern readers. The interview is edited and condensed.

I think it is important to stress that, unlike later empires, the Assyrians were not trying to impose their own culture, their own language, or their own religion on any of their subjects. People in the imperial periphery had to pay taxes to the crown and supply labor, but they were allowed and expected to just continue worshiping their own gods and speaking their own languages. In this regard you could say the Assyrians were not super-repressive.

In the Middle East, the Assyrian Empire was followed by others, from the Persian up to the Ottoman Empire. Although empire is a shape-shifting phenomenon, all these geopolitical entities were essentially based on a blueprint that the Assyrians were the first to create.

So the great mystery then, is how can it be that the phoenix of empire rises from the ashes of several grim years of plague? I would argue that history is not something predetermined by deterministic rules. If challenges are not too massive, then humans can actually adapt to them and find ways to get out of a crisis. This is what Tiglath-pileser did when he compensated for the loss of life and wealth Assyria had suffered by implementing a new grand strategy focused on annexing foreign lands, extracting their assets for the greater good of the Assyrian center, and deporting hundreds of thousands of people to replenish the work force where it was most urgently needed.

After Rome occupied the Balkans, it turned this border region into a crossroads, one that would eventually give rise to 26 Roman Emperors, including Constantine the Great, who shifted the capital of the empire to the eastern Balkans when he founded the city of Constantinople.

A particular surprise is that there is no evidence of a genetic impact on the Balkans of migrants of Italic descent: "During the Imperial period, we detect an influx of Anatolian ancestry in the Balkans and not that of populations descending from the people of Italy," said igo Olalde, Ikerbasque researcher at the University of the Basque Country and co-lead author of the study.

As one of the first empires to grace the earth, the Akkadians brought order to the sands of Mesopotamia against almost impossible odds, Sargon of Akkad leading our people to glory until our fall to the Curse of Akkad. With the modern world forgetting its legacy, the time has come to once again held hegemony over the cradle of civilization.

The Akkadian Empire was one of the first known empires in ancient Mesopotamia. It existed from approximately 2334 BCE to 2154 BCE and was founded by Sargon of Akkad. The empire encompassed a vast territory, including modern-day Iraq, Syria, and parts of Iran and Turkey. The Akkadians established a centralized government and introduced administrative reforms. They were known for their military conquests, including the defeat of Sumerian city-states. The Akkadian Empire made significant contributions to literature, art, and the development of the Akkadian language, which became the lingua franca of the region. However, the empire eventually declined due to internal conflicts and external pressures, leading to its collapse and the rise of other regional powers.

The Akkadian civilization emerged in Mesopotamia around the 24th century BCE. It was founded by Sargon of Akkad, who rose from humble origins to become the first ruler known to have created an empire. Sargon united various city-states and regions under his rule, establishing the Akkadian Empire.

Under Sargon's reign, the Akkadian Empire expanded its territory through military conquests, incorporating the Sumerian city-states and other neighboring regions. Sargon's successors, such as his son Rimush and grandson Naram-Sin, continued the empire's expansion and consolidation.

Despite their achievements, the Akkadians faced challenges and conflicts. They had to deal with frequent uprisings and resistance from conquered territories. Additionally, hostile groups such as the Gutians, a tribal confederation, posed threats to the empire.

After about two centuries of Akkadian rule, the empire began to weaken due to a combination of factors, including internal strife, economic issues, and external pressures. The Gutians eventually overran the Akkadian Empire, leading to its collapse around 2154 BCE.

Following the fall of the Akkadian Empire, Mesopotamia entered a period of fragmentation, with various city-states vying for power. Nevertheless, the Akkadians left a lasting legacy in the region, influencing subsequent civilizations and laying the foundation for the later empires of Mesopotamia.

Based on data collected in Mongolia over several years by climate scientists, the project aims to study climate change in relation to a particular set of circumstances, namely, the rise to power of Chinggis (or Genghis) Khan and the beginning of one of the most remarkable events in world history. Everyone knows Chinggis Khan but no one has so far been able to clearly explain the process through which the Mongols became so powerful nor why they would feel compelled to move out of Mongolia and conquer most of the Eurasian landmass. All countries from China to the Black Sea, including Central Asia, Russia, Iran, and parts of the Middle East, came to be under Mongol rule for the best part of the thirteenth and a good portion of the fourteenth centuries. The legacy of Mongol rule, however, continued to be felt in all of these regions well into the modern age. Mongol armies reached even beyond these lands: they invaded Poland, Hungary, and central Europe, riding as far as Vienna. Although the memories they left were not altogether pleasant (the Apocalypse was often invoked as a fitting metaphor), Europeans were intrigued and eventually found grounds to look at the Mongols in a more positive light and try to learn more about them.

The reason why the rise of the Mongols, and their appetite for conquest, has never been explained is simple on the surface: there are no sources that can tell us what happened. Every history book repeats, with greater or lesser accuracy, what we learn from a special Mongol source, the epic saga, orally composed and transmitted sometime in the mid-thirteenth century, known as the Secret History of the Mongols. This marvelous composition retells the story of the rise of Temjin, raised to be the khan of the Mongols with the title of Chinggis Khan in 1206. Episodes of the life of the Mongol conqueror, from foreordained birth to mysterious death, are narrated in beautiful prose and poetry. The trials and tribulations of Temjin make it clear that he lived in a time of conflicts and violence. Skills, sagacity, fortune, and perseverance yield their rewards when he is able to unify all the Mongols under a single rule, an accomplishment followed in short succession by the decision to invade first northern China and then central Asia.

Pastoral nomadic societies are extremely sensitive to climate changes. Extreme events, such as heavy snowfalls, frosts in winter, or droughts in summer, can, in a very short time span, affect severely the delicate balance between humans, animals, and land. Even in recent times, especially harsh winters have caused the loss of a large portion of the Mongolian livestock. But how should one relate such potential disasters to historical events? Moreover, what happens when the climate becomes unusually favorable to the production of pastoral resources? Historians have overwhelmingly focused on downturns rather than upswings. Based on tree-ring analysis, climate scientists involved in the project in which I am participating have reconstructed the climate of the Orkhon Valley, located in east-central Mongolia, for more than a thousand years.2 This is the locale where the future capital of the Mongol empire, Karakorum, was going to be built, and an important political site for several nomadic empires such as the Turks (sixth to eighth centuries) and the Uighurs (eighth to ninth centuries).

Nicola Di Cosmo joined the Institute as Luce Foundation Professor in East Asian Studies in the School of Historical Studies in 2003. His main field of research is the history of the relations between China and Inner Asia from prehistory to the modern period. He is currently working on questions of climate change at the time of the Mongol empire, the political thought of the early Manchus, and commercial relations in northeast Asia on the eve of the Qing conquest.
