Niniveh

Nineve, Nineveh, Ninus

The ancient capital of Assyria, a city on the eastern bank of the Tigris River.

It was the ancestral homeland of the brothers Pompeius and Ipomidon of Babylon - having been founded by their ancestor Ninus - but was seized by the Baruc of Baghdad.

In response, the brothers invaded the Baruc's land. Perceval's father, Gahmuret, serving the Baruc, was involved in the ensuing war.
