The Assyrians lived in the northern Mesopotamia, near the start of the Tigris and the Euphrates rivers. They rose to the power when the Akkadian Empire fell.
The main reason for the rise of the power of Assyrians were economic. Assyrians needed less artificial irrigation than their rivals ( Hittites and Babylonians ). Horse-breeding was extensive. Trade was carried out in all directions. Long wars helped build Assyria into a warrior society. All male citizens were obliged to serve in the army. And also, during the period of the Middle Assyrian kingdom ( 1360 - 1074 BC ) their rivals were weakened.
Assyria conquered all of Mesopotamia and expanded their kingdom to the east.
Answer:
- The rise of Assyrian economy.
- Assyria was a warrior society.
- Hittites and Babylonians both were weakened.

IgorLugansk [536]

Richard Lawrence, an unemployed house painter, approached Jackson with two loaded guns. Fortunately the guns misfired. Lawrence was mentally unstable and had no connections with Jacksons political rivals. Jackson and his Vice President, Martin Van Buren, was convinced that Lawrence had been hired by the Whig Party, who were opponents of his at the time. Jacksons Democrats and the Whig Party were upset about Jacksons attempts to dismantle the Bank of the United States. Therefore, they could've tried this, but Jacksons suspicious were never proven to be true. Hope this helped! :)
