Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:

1!. Mesopotamia is geographically a flat plain!. Invaders from all directions but underground could just march in!.

2!. The invaders usually held higher power than the vanquished!. Some locals may have had power, but they were puppets of the upper class!.

3!. At first, the Sumerians were city-states!. The Babylonians came into the south and started a strong empire!. The Babylonians also translated Sumerian texts into Babylonian and both sides were at peace!. Then the Assyrians invaded and plundered everything!. However, they also respected their shared religious values!. The Sumerian culture eventually died out as the Persians invaded!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
