You live in an area that the assyrian army is attempting to conquer. write a speech that you might give to your neighbors to persuade them either to defend themselves or to surrender without a fight

My dearest fellowmen, we are human beings who deserve our rights and freedom. We should not allow this Assyrian army to conduct siege on our lands and abuse our women and children. We must defend our honor, and we must not allow anyone to step on our rights. Yes, we know of their power but we only have our land. This precious land that our forefathers have worked so hard to build into what it is today should not be put to waste. We need to defend what is rightfully ours…even if we die trying.

Who it was like back then
