    Babylonian empire .
    "By the rivers of Babylon, there you’d want to sit, indulging your perverted pleasures and grandiose plans of conquering the region. Like the mighty Babylonians, much maligned in the Abrahamic tradition as excessive and obscene, you don’t think that there’s anything wrong with paying disproportionate attention to statues, even offering them food and wiping their mouths after they have their fill. And your favorite wonder of the ancient world? Why, the Hanging Gardens, of course!"

    Welcome to the Achaemenid Dynasty, you closet Zoroastrian, you! You’re spiritual, and also arty, and lover of fine wine poetry. Like Cyrus the Great, you harbor a lust for territorial vastness – not even eight million square kilometers across three continents is enough for you. Yet despite your expansionist ambitions, you’re tolerant of other people’s faiths, and believe strongly in the concept of human rights. “Free the Jews!” you’d proclaim, though admittedly your benevolence wouldn’t extend to those awful ancient Greeks. There are limits.

    Ancient Greeks – Macedonian Empire

    “Hail Alexander!” you shout at the top of your Ancient Greek-loving lungs. You’re cultured and philosophical – and maybe a bit vain – yet not afraid to get down and bloodied in the name of territorial glory. From the Balkans to the Stans, the Nile to the Indus, your megalomania knows no bounds. And while reciting poetry in a toga and waxing lyric about the freedom-espousing ideas of Cleisthenes, you could just as equally be ordering the sacking of a foreign capital and the enslavement of its people.

    Phoenician Empire

    You’re an aquaphiliac through and through, or at least feel most alive when by the sea, waking up to the salty breath of the ocean gods and immersing yourself in their wet, blue infinity. Like the Phoenicians, you’re also cultured and enterprising, ensconced in some thriving coastal city – the gates of your sophisticated metropolis wide open to the cross currents of the world. And if you had to pick one deity from the Canaanite pantheon, which enjoys the devotion of you and your people, it’d be the bare-breasted mother goddess of Asherah, blessed be she.

    Yeah... duh.. when this is the blood that is flowing through your veins:






    Wake up and smell the coffee.

    In a way, the Dutch (and Norwegians, Danes, Faroese, Brits and Portuguese) are the Phoenicians of our era. It's a maritime nation among maritime nations.

    Very true, there are a lot of similarities even in the way that we have colonized areas for trade rather than all out conquest.
