 O.T. Prophecy — 1
In 609 BC, which is about 2600 years ago, Babylon captured the last Assyrian king and took over the holdings of the Assyrian empire, to which the land of Israel previously had been subjugated.
Written: perhaps between 701-681 BC Fulfilled: 539 BC In Isaiah 14:23, the prophet said that Babylon, which had been a world power at two different times in history, would be brought to a humble and final end.
Written: sometime from 626 to about 586 BC Fulfilled: 536 BC In Jeremiah 32:36-37, the prophet said that the Jews would survive their captivity in Babylon and return home.

He was never crowned at Babylon, which was in a perpetual state of revolt until, in 691 B.C., he shocked the religious and political conscience of Asia by razing the holy city of Babylon to the ground.
His campaign against Hezekiach of Judah was as much a failure as his policy in Babylonia, and in his murder by his sons on 681 B.C. both Babylonians and Jews saw the judgment of heaven.
After several years of struggle, during which Egypt recovered its independence, Babylon was starved into surrender, and the rebel viceroy and his supporters were put to death.

 Habakkuk
Pre-612 BC The first interpretation is that Habakkuk must have been written before 612 BC because, after that date, the warring tendencies of the Babylonians would not have been a surprise.
Prior to 612 BC, Babylon was under submission to the Assyrians.
Knowing that the armies would come from Babylon (the Chaldeans; Habakkuk 1:6) and the nation was not yet destroyed, the setting of the book must have been between 612 BC and 586 BC.

 Book of Nahum
Nahum prophesied, according to some, in the beginning of the reign of Ahaz (B.C. Others, however, think that his prophecies are to be referred to the latter half of the reign of Hezekiah (about B.C. This is the more probable opinion, internal evidences leading to that conclusion.
The system adopted here follows John Oates, Assyrian Chronology, 631-612 BC, Iraq 27 (1965): 135-59.
Probably the book was written in Jerusalem (soon after B.C. 709), where he witnessed the invasion of Sennacherib and the destruction of his host (2 Kings 19:35).

 Nineveh - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Other cities which had perished, as Palmyra, Persepolis, and Thebes, had left ruins to mark their sites and tell of their former greatness; but of this city, imperial Nineveh, not a single vestige seemed to remain, and the very place on which it had stood was only matter of conjecture.
In the days of the Greek historian Herodotus, 400 BC, it had become a thing of the past; and when Xenophon the historian passed the place in the Retreat of the Ten Thousand the very memory of its name had been lost.
About 633 BC the Assyrian empire began to show signs of weakness, and Nineveh was attacked by the Medes, who subsequently, about 625 BC, being joined by the Babylonians and Susianians, again attacked it.

 Nineveh
612 BC: Ashurbanipal's successor held the Assyrian throne and at his death Sin-shar-ishkin became king.
Considering that the palace had been destroyed by an intense conflagration during the sack of Nineveh in 612 B.C., the massive walls and many of the relief sculptures of Sennacherib's throne-room suite were surprisingly well preserved.
There is some evidence that the defeat of Nineveh was the occasion of rejoicing in Judah, although the Assyrians established a new capital at Harran.

 Ashur-uballit II - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
He reigned in the capital city of Harran from 612 BC to 609 BC, having fled Nineveh during its attack by the Babylonian-Median army in 612 BC.

 The Chaldeans
Babylon in 555 BC came under the control of a king loyal to the Assyrians, Nabonidus (555-539 BC), who attacked Babylonian culture at its heart: he placed the Assyrian moon-god, Sin, above the Babylonian's principal god, Marduk, who symbolized not only the faith of Babylon but the very city and people itself.
