Babylon was east of Karbala on the old course of the Euphrates. Alexander's successor Seleucus moved his capital north east onto the Tigris near modern day Mada'in. After the Abbasids overran the Umayyads they wanted a capital further east than Damascus that was closer to their power base, so they built a new planned city (Bagdad) just north of Mada'in.

Why didnt you start in makedonia or atleast an area in greece?

Hey fella swell diss but now you got the pan Hellenist from Pella hella pissed

You got everything in the second Duchy war in Mesopotamia because the guy only had one Duchy title which comes with all of his vassals. There is a definitely a argument to be had that non de jure vassals should become independent instead.

You can go for the entire enemy kingdom if you abduct an heir and force him to join you. Saves a lot of boring duchy wars👍
