With all this fascinating information that this generation is unaware of, unfortunately, about civilizations and specifically about Mesopotamian civilization and some has also never heard of it at all
Sometimes I don't blame this generation because of what we hear about Iraq.
Every day I read new thing about the civilization  that i came from
I am deeply saddened by what happened to the oldest, greatest and first civilization in the world, the civilization of my country, Iraq
Throughout the ages, this civilization began to fade because of wars and because of the world's ambitions in this fertile land, where there is enough goods to cover  the world years and years. 
Previously, Iraq was the glory of civilizations and the world's first destination for tourism, travel and education
Now it is on the lists of the world's poorest, hungry and saddened countries
  The Iraqi passport has become one of the weakest passports in the world
Since the beginning of history, this country has never rested from war to war, revolutions, occupation, destruction, death, murder, and what next.
Intellectuals, doctors and engineers emigrated, fearing for the rest of their lives
There was nothing left in my country
Our monuments were stolen, our civilization plundered and destroyed with wars
In the country of civilizations, only ignorance, hunger and the smell of blood and death remain in the heads of the great people of Iraq
 with all the calamities that have taken place on this country
But we remain proud that we are Iraqi origin, history and civilization

  1. Aiyat--You have some good ideas and topics presented in your new entries, and your writing flows pretty well. Your tone is comfortable and confident. However, you don't dig into the content of your ideas as much as you should. You are too brief at times. Analyze to build more context and significance for your audience. Keep digging! Don't forget about visual appeal as well; you have great images, but your text layout if challenging at times. Finally, make sure to edit more carefully.

  2. Aiyat! The pictures you have posted of Iraq's early civilization are beautiful! I definitely understand how it can be wanting to know more about where your family originated from. My family were brought from Africa centuries ago but I am intrigued with my homeland. Your Hanging Gardens video is very informative. The architect of the Babylonian Empire was beautiful.
