In this, the first of the series, Michael Wood visits Iraq where the first cities were constructed over 5000 years ago by the Sumerians. The programme looks at the country's turbulent history, charts the rise and fall of its many civilisations and explores its religious diversity. All footage was filmed prior to the Gulf War in 1991.
