The map shows the vast territory controlled by the Assyrian Empire, which at its height stretched from modern-day Iraq and Iran in the east to parts of Syria, Turkey, and Egypt in the west. The Tigris and Euphrates rivers, which were the lifeblood of the empire, are prominently featured on the map, along with other important waterways and mountain ranges.
