The earliest of these centres of power to develop foreign empire
was also that destined, after many vicissitudes, to hold it latest,
because it was the best endowed by nature to repair the waste which
empire entails. This was the region which would be known later as
Babylonia from the name of the city which in historic times
dominated it, but, as we now know, was neither an early seat of
power nor the parent of its distinctive local civilization. This
honour, if due to any one city, should be credited to Ur, whose
also was the first and the only truly "Babylonian" empire.
