Sargon of Akkad: History's First Emperor?
video description
It is likely that Nimrod (most likely not an actual name) is Sargon.
Now, the beginning of his kingdom was Babel, Uruk, Akkad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar.
11 From that land he went out to Assyria, and he built Nineveh, Rehoboth-Ir, Calah,
12 Resen between Nineveh and Calah; that is the great city.

The Akkadians, who appeared suddenly in 2334 BC with a foreign language different from Sumerians, were Turkic Mongolian raiders with Hurrian mercenaries from south Caucasus.
The Sumerians expelled the Akkadians in 2154 BC who fled west to work with the Amorites to attack neighboring nations.

Unlike Neckbeard of Akkad, this man had followers older than 13 and could win UKIP more than 0 seats. It sucks that his empire and legacy shares the name with the British Burger King.

Note: This is about the actual Sargon of Akkad that lived thousands of years ago, not this strange British guy with an obsession for blue-haired feminists.

I actually found out about this Sargon before the internet guy, so I'm appropriately pissed that the world's first emperor is now an identity theft victim.

Yes, King Sargon's prestige was such that an Assyrian king was called Sargon as well, centuries after the death of the legendary Akkadian king!

Sargon, the hero who did not own a family or even himself and spent 600 years of conflict, is actually a legend of the first Akkadian emperor
