The Assyrians are known to create the first civilized and organized cities that also segregated the different tribes. The Assyrians because of their many victories against their opponents inherited wealth and prosperity for ages. The royal family was extremely large since their ancestors trace back over 2000b.c. Even the middle class was traced to be much more wealthier than any other empires nearby which were some of the wealthiest in their time. Poverty was not an issue for them. However, the Assyrians were very particular that every citizen had to obey the laws of Mesopotamia and live respectfully together while the powerful empire fought wars with their unbreakable chariots. If a citizen did not pay their taxes or did not follow the laws they would be enslaved.
