Question: What are the oldest empires in history!?
Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Some of the older, and better known were the Babylonians, Assyrians, and Egyptians all in or near the Middle East!. Here are a few that aren't as well known!. But I wouldn't call them "unknown" like the title indicates!.
