Answer:

Both of them fought with the surrounding city-states.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sargon of Akkad, also known as Sargon the great was the first emperor of the 'Akkadian' Empire. He gained power after conquering Mesopotamia and parts of Iran, Turkey and Syria. He had built an empire which had multi-ethnic people.

Just like the other Mesopotamian states, he fought and conquered the surrounding city-states and tried to gain farmland and other lands to extend their empire.

The kings of Babylonia and Assyria are believed to be successors to the Akkadian throne.
