Personal data Shamshi-Adad V van Assyrië 

• (Geschiedenis) .Source 1

  De Assyrische koning Shamshi-Adad V noemt in zijn annalen de Perzen als de bewoners van Persuash de streek ten zuiden van (huidig) Kermanshah (820 v.Chr.). Hij was getrouwd met koningin Sammuramat die na zijn dood in 810 v.Chr., de voogdij waarneemt over hun zoon Adad-Nirari III.
  De eerste jaren van zijn bewind stonden in het teken van een strijd om de troon die al begonnen was in 826 v.Chr. toen zijn vader de grip op de troon begon te verliezen. Zijn broer Assur-danin-pal was de leider van de opstand en slaagde er volgens Shamshi-Adad zelf in 27 steden aan zich onderhorig te maken, waaronder Ninive. De rebellie was pas in 820 v.Chr. onder bedwang. De burgeroorlog verzwakte het Assyrische rijk in sterke mate en de zwakte zou pas met de hervormingen van Tiglathpileser III beëindigd worden.
  In zijn latere jaren trok Shamshi-Adad op tegen het zuiden van het Tweestromenland en sloot een verdrag met de Babylonische koning Marduk-zakir-shumi II.

  Shamshi-Adad V was the King of Assyria from 824 to 811 BC. He was named after god Adad, who is also known as Hadad.[1][2]
  Family
  
  Shamshi-Adad was a son and successor of King Shalmaneser III, the husband of Queen Shammuramat (by some identified with the mythical Semiramis), and the father of Adad-nirari III, who succeeded him as king.[3]
  
  He was also a grandfather of Shalmaneser IV.[4][5]
  Reign
  
  The first years of Shamshi-Adad's reign saw a serious struggle for the succession of the aged Shalmaneser.
  
  The revolt was led by Shamshi-Adad's brother Assur-danin-pal, and had broken out already by 826 BC. The rebellious brother, according to Shamshi-Adad's own inscriptions, succeeded in bringing to his side 27 important cities, including Nineveh. The rebellion lasted until 820 BC, weakening the Assyrian empire and its ruler; this weakness continued to reverberate in the kingdom until the reforms of Tiglath-Pileser III.
  
  Later in his reign, Shamshi-Adad campaigned against Southern Mesopotamia, and stipulated a treaty with the Babylonian king Marduk-zakir-shumi I.
  
  In 814 BCE he won a battle of Dur-Papsukkal against the Babylonian king Marduk-balassu-iqbi and few Aramean tribes settled in Babylonia.
