Answer:

The Akkadian Empire was a great kingdom of Mesopotamia formed from the conquests of Sargon I of Akkad. It maintained its maximum splendor in the XXII century BC (2334 to 2192 BC).

The domains of the Akkadian Empire were extended to the whole basin of the Tigris and Euphrates, Elam, Syria and -according to the inscriptions- even further, to Lebanon and the Mediterranean coast. According to these inscriptions, it would come to make incursions to Anatolia and the interior of the Zagros mountains, and the empire would control the trade of the Persian Gulf towards "Magan" (possibly Oman) and the region of the Indus Valley.

The Akkadian Empire included all of the land between the Mediterranean Sea and the Arabian Gulf (better known as the Persian Gulf). It was in the same land that present-day Iraq is located.
