Who Controls the Middle East?

Excellent video illustrating the history of land control in the Middle East over the past 5000 years (thanks Dunner!).

As a side note, seeing all the different empires wipe across one another over the centuries, really reminded me of this ayah in the Quran:

Do they not travel through the earth and see what was the End of those before them? They were more numerous than these and superior in strength and in the traces (they have left) in the land: Yet all that they accomplished was of no profit to them. [40:82]
