What was an important step for assyrian rulers in controlling their empire? select all that apply. a. combining the conquered territories into one province b creating two capitals: one economic, one social c. dividing the empire into 70 provinces d. appointing governors to each province e. establishing a democratic form of government

Much of Assyria's history is closely tied to its southern neighbor, Babylonia. The two Mesopotamian empires spoke similar languages and worshipped most of the same gods. They were often rivals on the battlefield for influence in the ancient Middle East.

The history of Assyria spans mainly from about 2000 BC, when the cities of Nineveh and Calah were founded, to the destruction of Nineveh in 606 BC.

Whereas Babylonia is best remembered for its contributions in literature, architecture, and the law, Assyria is chiefly remembered for its military prowess, advances in weaponry, and meticulously recorded conquests.

Geographically, Assyria occupied the middle and northern part of Mesopotamia. It was situated between the Euphrates and Tigris Rivers, and its major cities were Calah, Zab, Ashur, and the capital, Nineveh.

I HOPE THIS HELPED :)

Several major steps helped Assyrian rules to control their empire including:

A. Combining the conquered territories into one province

C. Dividing the empire into 70 provinces

Explanation:

After the death of their strongest leader Shamshi-Adad in 1781 BC, the assyrians power fell and they grew weaker, however, from 1360 BC to 1074 BC, they regained their strength again by expanding their empire to conquer all of Mesopotamia and include most part of Middle East, Eqypt, Babylonia, Israel and Cypress.

To keep better control of the empire, Assyrian rulers divided it into 70 districts called provinces. Each one had their own governor that would report directly to the leader.
