Mesopotamia

Mesopotamia is a historical region in Western Asia. Home to one of the earliest civilizations to exist on Earth, Mesopotamia was the site of many of human history's important developments. The territory is currently occupied by Iraq and parts of Iran, Kuwait, Syria, and Turkey.
==History==
===Eternals' Interference===
In 5000 BC the ten Eternals sent to Earth by Arishem the Judge first made planetfall in the region. The people living there at the time were primitive hunter-gatherers under threat from Deviants. Five Eternals dispatched the threat and prevented most humans from being eaten. The other five Eternals disembarked from the Domo afterward, and all ten of them introduced themselves to the locals. The suspicious humans approached the Eternals with caution, though Druig made them drop their weapons. Sersi picked up a flint knife, transmuted it into a more durable one, and returned it to a local boy as a gesture of goodwill.
Babylon was founded in the region in subsequent millennia, and by 575 BC has become the largest city on Earth. It came under attack from the Deviants, and it fell to the Eternals to safeguard its people once more. During peacetime the Eternals assisted with improving the city, using their abilities to help crops grow or introducing basic inventions such as the plow.
The Domo was grounded beneath the Hanging Gardens of Babylon and used as the Eternals' residence. They abandoned the ship when they left for other places, and it remained there until Babylon and its surroundings became present-day Iraq.Eternals
===Alternate Universe===
In an alternate universe, a Deviant attacked Mesopotamia in 5000 BC. Several Eternals came to the rescue as one man ran away. Makkari helped evacuate civilians while Kingo attacked the creature and Druig erased the citizens' memories. The man who fled went on to have children and became the ancestor of a person who would later talk to Sprite.
In 575 BC, Phastos introduced the first plow to the residents of the city of Babylon, while Sersi helped make plants grow in the surrounding area. Another Deviant attacked Babylon, and Gilgamesh, Thena, and Ikaris fought it off while a farmer cowered.
Thousands of years later, Sprite showed the descendant of a man who had witnessed a Deviant attack two instances of Eternals influencing events in Mesopotamia, before getting attacked by a Deviant.Eternals: AR Story Experience
