Hammurabi was one of the first dynasty kings of the city-state of Babylon
Ashurnasirpal II moves the Assyrian capital to Calah (c. 880 B.C.)
Sargon II moves the Assyrian capital to Dur Sharrukin (c.
705 B.C.)
Though ancient boundaries of such city-centered cultures fluctuated, the city of Tyre seems to have been the southernmost. Sarepta between Sidon and Tyre, is the most thoroughly excavated city of the Phoenician homeland.

Babylon for Hammurabi
Tyre and Sidon for the Phoenicians
Assur and Nineveh for the Assyrians (Dur Sharrukin was the capital only during Sargon II's reign)
