Naram-Sin

Description: (King of the Akkadian Empire (c. 2254 – 2218 BC))
Naram-Sin ruled the Akkadian Empire during the 23rd century BC, expanding it to its peak and asserting his divinity as the first Mesopotamian king to do so. He acquired titles such as "God of Akkad" and "King of the Four Quarters," becoming the patron city god of Akkade. His legacy inspired later rulers to adopt his name, and his professional life was characterized by military conquests, divine proclamations, and a lasting impact on subsequent leaders.
