I wish someone had swallowed.

What is the capital of Assyria?

Kremlin wants to join in on the always lies side.

Trick question, it's rightfully our province - 2/3 of the heads.

Assur was the longest lasting one.

That lasted until Cyrus the great conquered them though, and sometimes the beligerent brother's capital was Babylon.

She usually did, it was just that one time.

Sorry.

At this point Iran has been lying the least tbh, which is insane

Like still gotta verify and take everything they say with a massive pinch of salt but still

Surprisingly those two aren't the ones that invaded Assyria.

Israel's encroachment into the area is more modern. There was a couple of iterations of Assyria and I don't remember how they both ended off the top of my head, but Persia definitely did extend that far West at times.
