Though it remained for his heir, Mursili I, to conquer that city, Hattusili was clearly influenced by the rich culture he discovered in northern Mesopotamia, and founded a school in his capital to spread the cuneiform style of writing he encountered there.
Mursili continued the conquests of Hattusili, reaching through Mesopotamia and even ransacking Babylon itself in 1595 BC (although rather than incorporate Babylonia into Hittite domains, he seems to have instead turned it over to his Kassite allies, who were to rule it for the next four centuries).
Having inherited a position of strength in the east, Mursili was able to turn his attention to the west, where he attacked Arzawa and a city known as Millawanda in the coastal land of Ahhiyawa.

 The True Date of the Exodus
Amenophis II is said to have been warned of the catastrophe that would befall Egypt at the Exodus by the famous Egyptian prophet Amenophis son of Hapu.
Amenophis II is said after the catastrophic departure of the Israelites to have given his 5 year old son "Sethos-Ramesses" to a friend for safekeeping, and to have promptly marched south with his army, being welcomed and entertained for the period of 13 years by the Ethiopian king.
Amenophis II was not followed on the throne by his natural heir, it may be presumed because of the death of the firstborn, but instead by an inferior son, Thutmosis IV, who, according to Manetho, held a position of leadership in the army of Thutmosis III before the departure of the Israelites.

 The Hittite Empire
Hugo Winckler was surprised to read there a copy or draft of the treaty between Ramses II and the king of Hatti, already known from its Egyptian version inscribed on the walls of the Ramesseum and of the great hypostyle hall of the temple of Amon at Karnak.
But the existence of the treaty with Ramses II precluded even a consideration of the conflicting data, and a chronological place in accord with Ramses II was allotted to Hattusilis, the king of Hatti, and to the entire period.
In revised chronology the `Great King of the Kheta,' against whom Ramses II moved his legions, was the king of the Chaldeans, and the signer of the peace treaty, Khetasar, or Hattusilis of the cuneiform version, was Nebuchadnezzar (Nabukudurri-usur).

 HITTITES : Encyclopedia Entry
After the incorporation or association of Arzawa and Mitanni (under Suppiluliuma I), the Hittite sphere of influence under Mursili II bordered on the Hayasa-Azzi to the east, on the Ahhiyawa and the newly-forming Assuwa confederacy to the west, on Egypt-controlled Canaan to the south, and on Assyria to the south-east.
The Old Kingdom, centered at Hattusa, peaked during the 16th century, and even managed to sack Babylon at one point, but made no attempt to govern there, choosing instead to turn it over to the domination of their Kassite allies who were to rule it for over 400 years.
Under Suppiluliuma I and Mursili II, the Empire was extended to most of Anatolia and parts of Syria and Canaan, so that by 1300 the Hittites were bordering on the Egyptian sphere of influence, leading to the inconclusive Battle of Kadesh in the early 13th century.

For example, some 3,400 years ago, Hittite King Mursili II discovered that his temple officials, his keepers of the kingdom's rituals, records and official knowledge, had falsified certain wax-tablet recorded instructions in order to alter solemn, religious practices of crucial importance.
