Kekaisaran Akkadia adalah kekaisaran yang berpusat di kota Akkad (Sumeria: Agade Hittite KUR A.GA.DÈKI "tanah Akkad"; Biblical Accad) dan wilayah sekitarnya (Akkadian URU Akkad KI) [4] di Mesopotamia tengah (Irak modern).[5]

Kota Akkadia terletak di tepi barat sungai Efrat. Meskipun dilakukan pencarian lebih lanjut, lokasi spesifiknya tidak pernah ditemukan. Kekaisaran ini mencapai puncak kejayaannya pada abad ke-24 dan 22 SM, dengan dilakukannya penaklukan oleh raja Sargon dari Akkad terhadap bangsa Sumeria sekitar tahun 2.300 SM.
