  • Babylonia was an ancient cultural region in central-southern Mesopotamia, with Babylon as its capital. Babylonia emerged when Hammurabi created an empire out of the territories of the former Akkadian Empire. Babylonia adopted the written Semitic Akkadian language for official use, and retained the Sumerian language for religious use, which by that time was no longer a spoken language.
