Sargon ruled Sumaria in ancient times. During his reign, his empire included all of the lands of Mesopotamia in the Middle East.
Sargon, Mesopotamia.
Assuming you are referring to Sargon the Great (or Sargon of Akkad), who lived about 2270-2215 BCE, he conquered ancient Sumeria, which covered much of current-day Iraq. Eventually, the Akkadian Empire included portions of modern-day Lebanon, Syria, Turkey, Iraq, and Iran.
The first recorded true empire was established by Sargon of Akkad (the Great). This occurred about 2250 BC in the Mesopotamia region that is presently Iraq and Syria.
Sargon was able to develop a military style that allowed him to conquer neighboring cities. He controlled much of the Mesopotamian area. He built roads and new cities. He was a good administrator and placed someone close to him in each of the captured cities. His daughter, Enheduanna, was a great writer, the first author to be known by name.
