==Background==
When speaking with Joshua Graham, he recites a passage from the Bible that mentions Babylon.Joshua Graham: "By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down, yea, we wept, when we remembered Zion. Remember, O Lord, the children of Edom in the day of Jerusalem who said, 'Raze it, raze it, even to the foundation.' O daughter of Babylon, who art to be destroyed. Happy shall he be, that rewardeth thee as thou hast served us. Happy shall he be, that taketh and dasheth thy little ones against the stones. Do you know what it means?"(Joshua Graham's dialogue) Gameplay-wise, there is an achievement called O Daughter of Babylon.
The gardener and mammologist exams at the Pioneer Scout camp have questions that also reference the kingdom. A question in the gardener exam asks, "Mary wants to grow a spectacular garden, with all the best plants she can find. She wants to model her garden off of a legendary Wonder of the World. Which garden should she use as her model?" The Hanging Gardens of Babylon is provided as the correct answer to the question.Pioneer Scout camp terminal entries; Pioneer badge exam terminal, Possum Exams, Gardener Additionally, a question in the mammologist exam asks, "Snippers is a good house cat.
