På 1800-talet f.Kr. hade stora delar av södra Mesopotamien erövrats av <a href="/wiki/Amoriter" title="Amoriter">amoriter</a>. Dessa var nordväst-semitiska nomader från norra Levanten och skilde sig från de östsemitiska assyrierna och akkaderna. Amoriterna använde sig till en början inte av jordbruk utan levde halvnomadiska liv baserat på boskapsskötsel, då främst får. Efter en tid började amoriterna sköta sädeshandeln i Mesopotamien vilket gjorde dem rika och de slog sig ned i de gamla sumeriska och akkadiska städerna och grundade egna dynastier. Mest framstående av dessa var <a href="/wiki/Isin" title="Isin">Isin</a>, <a href="/wiki/Larsa" title="Larsa">Larsa</a>, <a href="/wiki/Eshnunna" title="Eshnunna">Eshnunna</a>, <a href="/wiki/Lagash" title="Lagash">Lagash</a> och senare Babylon. </p><p>Babylons stat påbörjades någon gång på 1800-talet f.Kr, när den amoritiske hövdingen Sumu-abum förklarade sin stad Babylon självständigt från Kazallu som nu blev grannstat till Babylon. Sumu-abum efterträddes av Sumu-la-El som genom en serie militära segrar säkrade Babylons närliggande territorium. Både Sumu-abum och Sumu-la-El påstås ha uppfört Babylons murar. Vem som faktiskt gjorde det eller om det var en pågående konstruktion som sträckte sig över bådas tid på tronen är oklart<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-reference-link-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-reference-link-bracket">]</span></a></sup>. Sumu-la-El efterträddes av Sabium som i sin tur efterträddes av Apil-Sin. Ingen av de fyra härskarna kallade sig för kung av Babylon vilket tyder på att Babylon fortfarande var ett litet och någorlunda obetydligt rike, överskuggat av långt äldre och mäktigare riken så som Assyrien, Elam, Isin och Larsa. Apil-Sin efterträddes av sin son Sin-Muballit som var den förste Babyloniske härskaren som kallade sig kung. Sin-Muballit skall ha besegrat en invaderande arme från Ur och skall även ha erövrat ett vid tiden kraftigt försvagat Isin. Han befäste Babylons städer och när han abdikerade på grund av dålig hälsa var staten långt starkare än tidigare.

Efter erövrandet av södra Mesopotamien inleddes ett krig mot Elam i öst. Tillsammans med stadsstaterna <a href="/wiki/Mari" title="Mari">Mari</a> och Yamhad besegrades elamiterna och Hammurabi erövrade Elam. En pyrande konflikt med Mari gällande vilken stat som hade egentlig kontroll över staden Heet resulterade i krig mellan Mari och Babylon och Mari erövrades 1761 f.Kr. av Hammurabis trupper. Detta resulterade även i att alliansen med Yamhad föll samman men inget krig mellan de två staterna utbröt. Efter att ha kuvat Mari vände sig Hammurabi mot det assyriska riket. Ett utdraget krig följde och resulterade i att Assyrien blev tributstat till Babylon. Vid Hammurabis död hade hela södra Mesopotamien sammanfogats till ett rike under Babylon. Assyrien var fortfarande nominellt självständigt men stod under babylonisk kontroll. strax innan Hammurabis död började Babylon ersätta städerna Nippur och Eridus position som religiöst centra. Till en början användes solguden Shamash men under Hammurabis tid ersattes denne gud av sin son Marduk som blev huvudgud i södra Mesopotamien. </p><p>Hammurabis död hade direkt effekt på det imperium han skapat. Assyrierna var de första som reste sig. De avslutade sin tributbetalning och drev ut babyloniska trupper och amoritiska stammar från Assyrien. Sydligaste Mesopotamien förklarade sig självständigt under den nya Sjölandsdynastin och elamiterna tog tillbaka sina tidigare förlorade områden. Mari hade efter ett misslyckat uppror under Hammurabis sista år bränts till grunden och existerade nu endast som en mindre by helt utan politiskt inflytande. Hammurabis dynasti fortsatte härska i Babylon som nu återgått till att vara en mindre stadsstat. </p><p>Under <a href="/wiki/1500-talet_f.Kr." title="1500-talet f.Kr.">1500-talet f.Kr.</a> plundrades staden av <a href="/wiki/Hettiterna" class="mw-redirect" title="Hettiterna">hettiterna</a> som ryckt ned i Mesopotamien från Anatolien, varefter <a href="/wiki/Kassiterna" class="mw-redirect" title="Kassiterna">kassiterna</a> som inkommit från Zagrosbergen grep makten över staden. Kassiterna grundade en dynasti i Babylon som varade till 1160 f.Kr. Från 1365 kom Babylon dock att vara underordnad vasallstat till växelvis Assyrien och Elam. 1155 f.Kr. efter ett flertal invasioner av både Elam och Assyrien störtades den kassitiska dynastin av akkader från södra Mesopotamien. Babylon fortsatte dock vara en svag stat dominerat av assyrierna och när västsemitiska araméer och suteaner invaderade dess områden från väst kunde Babylon inte göra mycket motstånd. Västsemiterna bosatte sig runt Babylon och på slutet av 1000-talet f.Kr hade en arameisk dynasti tagit makten över staden. </p><p>Det finns få arkeologiska fynd från denna tid eftersom en höjd grundvattennivå skadat stadens äldsta delar.

Babylon var dock nästan konstant i uppror vilket nådde sin kulmen under kung Sennacheribs tid som kung av Assyrien. Hövding Merodach-Baladan som ledde en <a href="/wiki/Kaldeen" title="Kaldeen">kaldeisk</a> stam hade då allierat sig med Elam och upproret kuvades först efter att Babylon ödelagts fullständigt. 689 f.Kr. rev assyrierna ned Babylons murar, palats och tempel och resterna slängdes i floden Arakhtu som rann invid Babylon. Att de religiösa byggnaderna revs skall ha chockat många och när Sennacherib senare mördades av sina söner skall det ha setts som försoning med gudarna. Esarhaddon som efterträdde Sennacherib byggde snabbt upp staden igen och bodde där under delar av året. Vid hans död tillföll staden hans äldste son Shamash-shum-ukin som 652 f.Kr kom att starta ett inbördeskrig mot sin bror Ashurbanipa som härskade över Nineveh. Shamash-shum-ukin bildade en stor allians av elamiter, perser, kaldéer, suteaner, kananiter och araber som samtliga varit under assyrisk makt. Shamash-shum-ukin misslyckades dock med att ta Assyriens tron. Han belägrades i Babylon medan hans allierade besegrades i en rad kampanjer och tvingades till slut ge upp på grund av svält. Ashurbanipa höll en försoningsceremoni i Babylon och tillsatte sedan Kandalanu som guvernör av staden. Han tog dock med sig flera av Babylons skrifter till sitt bibliotek i Nineveh. Efter Ashurbanipals död bröt fler inbördeskrig ut i det Assyriska riket. Till slut tog Babylon under Nabopolassar tillsammans med andra kuvade riken och folkslag chansen och fullt uppror bröt ut. De allierade folken fick även hjälp utifrån av Medien, Persien, skyter och kimmerier och tillsammans besegrade de det nu splittrade och försvagade Assyrien och Nineveh brändes till grunden<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-reference-link-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-reference-link-bracket">]</span></a></sup>. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Andra_storhetstiden">Andra storhetstiden</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Babylon&veaction=edit&section=4" title="Redigera avsnitt: Andra storhetstiden" class="mw-editsection-visualeditor"><span>redigera</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-divider"> | </span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Babylon&action=edit&section=4" title="Redigera avsnitts källkod: Andra storhetstiden"><span>redigera wikitext</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Babylonien fortfar att vara kulturellt centrum i Mesopotamien, erkänt av både assyrier och babylonier.

Tempel och heliga platser tilläts förfalla och så även Babylons kanalsystem. På landsbygden utanför Babylon rådde osämja och flera uppror skedde. Vid 522 f.Kr (Nebukadnessar III) 521 f.Kr. (Nebukadnessar IV) och 482 f.Kr. (Bel-shimani and Shamash-eriba) lyckades Babylon göra sig självständigt men staden återintogs snabbt varje gång av Persien.
