Whose descendants are the Assyrians?
Assyrians are descendants of Sham. The earliest inhabitants of Assyria were Hu Park Jung Su. Later, Sem people moved in and gradually merged with Hulit people to become Assyrians. Because Assyria is in a special geographical environment surrounded by foreigners, it is often threatened by hostile ethnic attacks, and its resources are very limited, which makes Assyrians develop the habit of belligerence. They are insatiable about land, and the more they conquer, the more they feel the need to conquer. They believe that only by constantly conquering the outside world can they keep everything they have gained.

Early history of Assyrians

Assyrian is a term used to address an ancient race that originated in the Middle East. Assyria is located in the northern mountainous area of the two river basins, and its residents were originally Hu Park Jung Su. Later, some Semitic tribes settled in this area and merged with the aborigines to form Assyrians. Assyrian culture and Babylonian culture come down in one continuous line. The former uses cuneiform characters created by Sumerians and Akkadians popular in the two river basins, and simplifies them into their own dialect-ancient Assyrian.
