Question with boldness even the existence of a God; because, if there be one, he must more approve of the homage of reason, than that of blind-folded fear.

FYI
The capitol of Assyria was either Ninevah, or Assur depending on when in history you look.
So the Medes decided to not take any chances and burned both cities to the ground. They didn't want their conquering to get nullified on a historical technicality.

Don't even know Assyria, so never mind the capitol! ;-)
