Asia, which means ‘land of the sunrise’ in ancient Assyrian language, has witnessed the rise and fall of many great and ancient civilizations. One of the world’s oldest civilizations – the Mesopotamian civilization – prospered 5,000 years ago on the land between the Euphrates and Tigris rivers in West Asia.
