Babylon the Great

Babylon the Great is a term often used to represent a powerful and corrupt society or empire. Originating from ancient Babylon, a prominent city in Mesopotamia known for its wealth and influence, the term appears in various religious texts, particularly in the Bible's Book of Revelation. It symbolizes moral decay, excess, and the ultimate downfall of civilizations that stray from justice and righteousness. Babylon the Great is frequently viewed as a metaphor for materialism and the negative consequences of human greed and hubris in any era.
