Akkad also known as Agade, it was located along the western bank of the Euphrates River possibly between the cities of Sippar and Kish (or, perhaps, between Mari and Babylon or, even, elsewhere along the Euphrates). The Akkadian empire, featured in the Scorpion King, is geographically the same as the ancient, Akkadian Kingdom. However, the film series doesn't follow the actual history. Nippur is the only Akkadian city, featured in the Scorpion King.
