readx;? King En Shakush Anna of the Second Uruk Dynasty was a shrewd and capable dynasty that grew in power and began to grow stronger, challenging the regional overlord of the Eastern Semites. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

In 2490 BC, En Shakush Anna captured Shamash, and Uruk became the new political center of the two river valleys. En Shakush Anna became the regional hegemon. Ku Papa, who founded the Third Dynasty of Kish, submitted to him.

At that time, the Uruk Second Dynasty was powerful and maintained a high-pressure posture against the Kish Third Dynasty, Uruk's enemy who was established later, and the Kish queen Ku Papa was forced to submit to it.

And the Atab king, Lugar Ann Montu, who was founded at about the same time as these two dynasties, was ambitious and intended to become the Sumerian overlord, so Uruk, who stood in his way, had to be weakened.

Lugar Ann Montu chose to ally himself with Kish Queen Ku Papa against En-Shakush Anna, and the queen was naturally happy to join in the fight against Uruk.

In 2485 BC, when the combined forces of Atab and Kish attacked Uruk, En-Shakush Anna was unable to resist and had no choice but to submit to the stronger Atab, Uruk lost his supremacy, and Atab became the new overlord, and Queen Kish was happy to gain independence and exist as an ally of Atab in the alliance.

In 2473 BC, Queen Ku Papa's son, Psul Sin, succeeded to the throne of Kish.

After Ku Papa's death, her son Psul Sheen no longer wanted to accept the fact that the alliance was under the Ataab, and should become the leader of the alliance due to Kish's strong national power and historical connections. The two sides engaged in many open and covert battles over the issue of the alliance leader, which eventually turned into a war.

In 2470 BC, Lugar Ann Montu led an army to defeat Psuor Sin, and Kish submitted to him, but the strength of the Kish Third Dynasty was greatly weakened, and they temporarily fell behind in the long competition with Uruk.

Later in the reign of N. Shakush Anna, while both were subject to Atab's hegemony, Uruk and Kish were in constant conflict, and Atab acted as a mediator as the leader of the alliance. During these conflicts, Uruk maintained military superiority over King Kish, Psul Sin, due to the loss of Kish's strength.

Because Lugar Ann Montu de facto gained supremacy, although he did not occupy a large city, the situation at that time was not the period of the later battle after the death of your Zappa, there were still certain ideological constraints, which was already the limit of what he could do.

The priests of the temple of Nipur bestowed on him the title of Lugar, and although many people called themselves Lugar, very few were actually bestowed by Nippur.

After the temple conferred the title, no one in the Sumerian region challenged it, because for the Sumerians it was the right to rule the Sumerians granted by the main god Enlil. The Sumerians were internally united.

After stabilizing the alliance, Lugar Ann Montu actively launched an offensive in the Elamite region.

In 2465 BC, the army of Lugar Ann Montu defeated the Elam-Awan king Kiku Shiwi Temti and invaded Susa. The Awan dynasty submitted to it.

Lugar Ann Montu was the third Sumerian king to conquer Elam. The first two were King Nmi Barakshe of the First Dynasty of the Kish Dynasty and King Sue Sutar of the Second Dynasty of the Kish Dynasty.

In the years following the establishment of the Adab dynasty, King Lugar Ann Montu conquered all of Mesopotamia and Elam, from the Persian Gulf to the Zagros Mountains.

Its control of the Sumerian and Elamite regions is still on the basis of subduing people with virtue, and it does not occupy any territory itself, but only requires submission, and this kind of hegemony of the Spring and Autumn Five Hegemons has been frequently staged in the history of Sumer, so it is similar to the role of the world police, and objectively plays a role in maintaining peace.

In 2456 BC, Lugar Ann Montu died with a life of glory that will go down in history.

At the time of Lugar Ann Montu's death, the city of Kish, which he had struck against, had a new king, your Zappapa.

In 2439 BC, King Kish your Zappapa defeated Uruk and forced Lugar Ann Uri, King of the Second Dynasty of Uruk, to sign an alliance under the city, ceding land, demarcating the border between the two countries, and erecting a mesirim boundary monument and altar. From then on, the Sumerians took Kish as their leader.

The King of Kish, who may have been born from the East Semites, has achieved feats that are almost not inferior to those of Lugar Ann Montu, and the Sumerian world ushers in the era of your Zappapa, who is the next protagonist.

In 2417 BC, after the death of your Zappa, marked by the destruction of the Second Uruk Dynasty by your taking advantage of the fire, the Sumerian world entered a period of terrible annexation wars, either annexed or annexed by others, and the torrent of history could not be stopped. This is a game like beating drums and passing flowers, but the result of spreading it is the death of the country and the destruction of the country, which is not the same as the mildness of the period of the struggle for hegemony.

From then on, the Sumerian city-states engaged in a continuous series of wars, and the regime took turns between the city-states. It did not end until the Sumerians completely lost power.

Under this historical torrent, Kish, Uruk, and Atab have all joined the battlefield of regional melee and become active participants in it.

In 2414 BC, the last monarch of the Atab dynasty captured your. Atab became the new political center of Sumer.

In 2408 BC, Atab of Sumer was captured by the Maris dynasty of Eastern Semites. The Atab dynasty fell.

The Atab dynasty experienced a total of [-] kings, 90 years.

"Adab was defeated, and the royal power was transferred to Mari. ”

Mari Mari, located near Abu Kamaru in the middle of the Euphrates River, 2.5 km from the west bank of the river, in the Silesian region of northern Mesopotamia, is today located on the Syrian border. Slightly north of almost the same latitude is the Assyrian city of Ashur, located on the left bank of the Tigris River. Further north is Nineveh, further north on the Tigris.

There are several scattered settlements established by local indigenous people, and the earliest settlements found so far are pottery and other relics from 4000 BC onwards.

During the reign of the Shamash dynasty in the valley of the two rivers, the Eastern Semites began to build the city of Mari.
