The prosperity of Hitite civilization.

 Hitite has formed a powerful country in ancient Orient, but there are still many things I don't know about them.They designated Hatus, Turkey (now Bogazkoei), as the capital around 1650 BC and occupied a large area.  


  In the 16th century B.C., it became strong enough to destroy the Babylonian kingdom, which first unified Mesopotamia.It declined for decades after that, but it reached its heyday again.King Supiloumas I, who was put to sleep in the late 14th century B.C., expanded his territory to surrounding areas such as Mitani and Syria and built a solid wall in the capital.And in the late 12th century B.C., it collided with Egypt.At that time, the king of Egypt was Ramses II, one of the greatest pharaohs.King Muwatalis of Hittite fought fiercely with Ramses II in Kadesh, located on the Orontes River basin, over the control of Syria.This fight is of great significance in that it is a conflict between the two civilizations.Hitite fought on par with Egypt, mobilizing troops armed with light tanks and hard iron weapons to siege Ramses II.After decades of battle, Hatusili III and Ramses II eventually signed a peace treaty in Kadesh.This is the world's first international treaty.


  The people of Hittite were excellent in architecture and built huge castles, temples, and cities, but few remain today.However, there are some traces of Hitite in Bogazkoei, the capital of Hitite.You can see the brilliant culture of Hitite through the palace site, library site, and residence found in Bogazkoei.
