The prosperity of Baghdad at that epoch is well illustrated by the tales of Thousand and One Nights. In 1258, the army of Mongols destroyed completely Baghdad. Now Baghdad is spread over the both sides of the Tigris river and its population is around 5 millions. National Museum of Iraq contains the treasure of Mesopotamian civilisation.
