He was in the middle of rolling fields. Forests south, a couple of hills west, and a he could hear a river to the north. Again. He turned to the guys standing around behind him.. "You, with the backpack. Start building. You, with the shovel, there's cows over there."
Again.
It wasn't constantly rebuilding his empire that irritated Hammurabi so much. It wasn't even having to find all new advisers and consorts. Again. No, the most irritating part was it ALWAYS happened right when he finally found the one comfortable spot on his throne.
