Excluding the Persian/Parthian Empire, what people of the Middle East from the Bronze age till Alexander do you see able to build a multicultural nation in that area capable to resist so far, at least until to match the Greeks, the Carthaginians or even the Romans? By logic, it will be easy to reply Neo Assirians, Neo Babylonians or Medians, but why don't try to imagine the overextention of Pharaonical Egypt, the rise of Davidic Israel, or maybe also a revival of Sumers from Larsa, Ur, or Lagash? The choice is to select from all the peoples and the state-cities in that region for about 2,500 years... To make more simple the siutation, it will not be necessary to imagine an "universal empire", it could be interesting also to thing about a fractured Middle East..
