The Neo-Babylonian empire, especially under the reign of Nebuchadnezzar II (605-562 B.C.), was a period of rebirth for southern Mesopotamia. Irrigation systems improved and expanded, increasing agricultural production. Urban life flourished with the creation of new cities, monuments and temples, and the consequent increase in trade.

In Babylonia, players command their own clan of merchants, with the aim of creating the most lucrative routes between cities and settlements. Players must position themselves in the most fertile fields and next to the temples (Ziggurats), where they will obtain the invaluable support of the religious authorities.

Babylonia is a game of placement in the purest style of its author, Reiner Knizia. With its simple yet elegant rules, every game is both exciting and immersive from start to finish.
