Aššur-uballiṭ II likely served as crown prince at Nineveh in 626 and 623 BC, watching his predecessor Sîn-šar-iškun preside over an empire tearing itself apart through civil war, revolts, and invasions. Between 614 and 612 BC, the Medes and Babylonians sacked Assur, Kalhu, Arbela, Arrapha, and finally Nineveh, where Sîn-šar-iškun died. Aššur-uballiṭ gathered what was left of the army at Harran and ruled from 612 to 609 BC, allied with Egypt but never formally crowned - the Assyrians still called him crown prince because he couldn't perform the coronation rite at Assur, which no longer existed. Medo-Babylonian forces took Harran in 610 BC. He tried to retake it in 609 BC, failed, and vanished from the record. Three thousand years of Assyrian kingship ended with him.
