The Failure of the Hittite Empire: Plague, Poor Leadership, and Destruction
AUTHOR NAME: Eric Cline

The Hittite Empire failed due to internal decay, including a plague that ravaged the royal family and subsequent poor leadership.

These resilient trading centers, however, were continuously forced to pay tribute to aggressive Neo-Assyrian kings like Shalmaneser III after battles such as Qarqar in 853 BC.
