Answer:

The Assyrians and the Chaldeans, moved Jews away from Israel and Judah they wanted the areas to remain pacified.

Explanation:

  • It was the strategy of Assyrians and Chaldeans to relocate the original habitants of the conquered lands to other parts of their empire so as to ensure that no possibility of a revolt arises in the newly conquered lands.
  • Moreover, to establish a firm hold on the conquered lands, the Assyrians moved their own people to these lands.
  • This strategy worked efficiently as there were no outbreaks or rebellions against the empire ever.
