Years: 1485BCE - 1342BCE

The territory of Mitanni, or Hanigalbat, extends from the region of Kirkuk in the east westward through Syria to the Mediterranean Sea by the early fifteenth century BCE.

The erection of the Mittani kingdom prompts Egypt to wage war.

A successful military campaign regains control of Palestine and enters northern Syria.

Egyptian forces reach as far as the east bank of the Euphrates to temporarily defeat Mitanni, but fail to wrest domination of Syria from the rival power.
