    Abu Sa’id reported: On the day of the battle of Badr, the Romans were victorious over the Persians and the believers were pleased by that. Allah had revealed, “The Romans were defeated in the nearest land, but they will be victorious after their defeat in a few years. To Allah belongs the matter before and after, and on that day the believers will rejoice,” (30:1-4). Thus, the believers rejoiced at the victory of the Romans over the Persians. Source: Sunan al-Tirmidhī 2935 perishes, there will be no (more) Khosrau after him, and when Caesar perishes, there will be no more Caesar after him. By Him in Whose Hands Muhammad's life is, you will spend the treasures of both of them in Allah's Cause." حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ بُكَيْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنْ يُونُسَ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، قَالَ وَأَخْبَرَنِي ابْنُ الْمُسَيَّبِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏ "‏ إِذَا هَلَكَ كِسْرَى فَلاَ كِسْرَى بَعْدَهُ، وَإِذَا هَلَكَ قَيْصَرُ فَلاَ قَيْصَرَ بَعْدَهُ، وَالَّذِي نَفْسُ مُحَمَّدٍ بِيَدِهِ لَتُنْفِقُنَّ كُنُوزَهُمَا فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ ‏"‏‏.‏ Reference : Sahih al-Bukhari 3618 In-book reference : Book 61, Hadith 125 USC-MSA web (English) reference : Vol. 4, Book 56, Hadith 815 (deprecated numbering scheme)

America is founded on a way more solid ground.Founding fathers even referred to Zoroaster teachings when they wrote the constitution.Read Benjamin Franklins letter to Jefferson.

    Personally, the Achaemenid Empire seems more like a federation than the typical empire; they kept at least a few of the original leaders in charge, and the laws of the land largely stayed the same, so the main interaction was a shared military and tax system.

    So a couple of things you got wrong: 1. There were 3 Iranian tribes in the Iranian Plateau: Media, Parthia, Persia The first one to dominate everyone else were the Medians and they had a large empire of their own. Cyrus The Great was the grandson of the last Median emperor, who revolted in protest of his grandfather's corruption. 2. Xerxes wasn't by any means weak. He won the battle against the Greeks eventually but a series of natural disasters that haunted both him and his father in the lower Greek region made it kinda casualty-heavy to conquer that area.

    Xerxes was not weak by any means that is true and is definitely not the caricature that is portrait by Holywood. But he did not eventually defeat the Greeks he had won some initial battles and suffered casualties in the fleet by harsh weather conditions in the Aegean and in the end he got defeated in the final naval battle in Salamis which was the Greeks' last stand. After that the fleet was incapable for battle from the casualties and withdrew to Persia but the army was still undefeated and stayed in the middle part of Greece under Mardonious (Xerxes son in law) for the final battle with the Spartans and Athenian main forces. But winter had arrived and war was a very difficult task for anyone at that times so the Persians had to camp and wait for the weather to get better. During this time due to the harsh weather conditions, lack of proper hygiene and hostile behaviour of all around them the Persians had outbreaks of various illnesses which resulted in the death of many Persian soldiers. In spring a weaker Persian army faced the reorganized Greeks at Plateais were they were defeated for one more time. So Greeks won both final battles.

    I would say that although the Empire had declined it wasn't on the verge of any internal collapse. It was still extremely wealthy and formidable, even if it hadn't had a ruler of the caliber of Darius or Cyrus for over a century. If Alexander hadn't of conquered it, it very well could have continued on for quite some time.

    The Persia Empire is my favourite Empire after Byzantine (which probably happens because I'm Greek) To this day, I consider modern-day Persia, Iran, an amazing nation with great civilization and history I wish that the west, which Greece sadly is a part of, wasn't that iran-phobic (same with Russia too)

    I know people will disagree with me but this is one of the most inaccurate videos on the Persian empire. Let's first start you told very little about the satrap system and forgot how the Persian empire administered the land. The conquered land was an satrap of the Persian empire. They could have their own laws and governors, they just had to respect the people they ruled over. In return they would have gave a very small amount of tax and soldiers. They would not need them because the Persian army had around 200 000 soldiers. Many empires 200 years after the fall of the Persian empire could not raise that amount of soldiers. If the people did not accept the satrap offer an tyrant would rule the state as long as the people would start liking Persia. Then a government of their likings will be directed. Then the next thing. You do not really talk about Dariush the Great and Cambyses. But that is understandable. If you wanted to complain about being ruthless you could have started with him not Xerxes the Great. Xerxes the great was but everything that you said. He was not ruthless. I have not heard anything about taxes being raised and his campaign in to Greece was not an complete failure. He did not hoard money or did not construction stop under his time or ever. Infact he is remembered as the greatest construction of the Persian empire. Have you heard about the Xerxes canal? The decline of Persia did not start at Xerxes the Great but at the civil wars of Persia. Darius the third was just recently Shahanshah of Persia. The administration was heavy. The troops of Persia was good fighters but the satrap soldiers were weaker. Persia was lost because of Alexander the Great. But also because of civil wars, bad luck and Xenophobia. Another thing the official language of Persia was old Persian. They had an unique alphabet but used the assyrian babylonian alphabet. Sorry for my spelling also. Edit: Wanted to say this. I don't want to diss Alexander but he was not seen as an liberator in Persia expect Egypt. Even the Greeks of Iran liked Iran more, not just now but during the Parthian time. That is why we like Greeks in Iran. The dictatorship was there because of the civil war. The last thing I might be wrong here but Persia was never near economic disaster.

After a period of Turmoil Artaxerxes recovered stability in Egypt, reconquered the Greek ionia region( although philip tried to help the ionian cities) and also conquered some Greek island in the aegean amd the empire was in good state. Then he died and there was a an imbalanced condition. The next emperor took charge and didnt restore balance or not yet fully. And under these conditions the well organized Army of Alexander and Alexander with the great strategic and leadership actions campaigned.

    Persia (Pārse) is the name of one of the Eran’s providence, it’s the province which the city of Shiraz is located at, in ancient times the city used to be called Anshan, from Sasanian era its known as Shiraz. So Persia is not the name of all of Eran. The same with Parthia (Parthaova) which is the old name of khorasuan (the north eastern province+Afghanistan). Both Parthaova and khorasuan means “the east” in Ancient Eranian languages.

    @@ramtin89 civil wars/revolts are not an indication of a collapse if they are resolved. Most empires/countries have those but do not collapse. A collapse is when they revolt/civil war/fracture permanently or at least for a significantly long time. That generally happens because an empire overreaches its logical bounds and can no longer administrate it effectively. However, the Persians were quite good at administration and logistics, it didn't collapse because of that. Sure, the Ionian wars and previous civil wars weakened the Persians to the point that Alexander could exploit them them, but they never collapsed. They were conquered by Alexander the Great. Being conquered isn't generally referred to a collapse, a collapse implies that you internally fractured to the point of no return. I think the issue here is that you're having a hard time swallowing the pill that the Persians were conquered by Alexander.

This is the first empire in the whole history of the world. 2) Babylon was different from Egypt. 3) As mentioned by another viewer, it is ee-run, not eye-ran (FYI, same applies for Iraq). 5) Cyrus WAS great. He unified, he built, he managed, he ruled, he implemented regulations … so, he WAS great. Same with Darius. He continued what Cyrus had accomplished plus more. So, he WAS great. On the other hand, Alexander … why is he considered to be great by the people of the west?! Because he was a lucky invader?

    There is a mythical story that says" A usurper king called "zahAk" that took the throne of Iranian kingdom by acts of Sorcery and treachery. A man named "kAveh" fought against the usurper and captured him. Then kAveh took zahAk to mount Damavand and left him in chain inside a cave for ever and for good. Then kAveh rendered the throne to "Fereydoon" and …. I carefully analyzed this mythical story and I found out that, this story however is mythical but sounds like a big undeniable real historical news is hidden in the whole story that never have been noticed by any scholar before. It may sound like a crazy typical ufo claim in history. But it is easy to prove that the character of "kAveh" is real and very historical. It is easy to prove that "kAveh" or in Median language "kavi = Boss or head of certain group of craftsmen- Kavi of blacksmiths" was the leader of a revolutionary act that overthrown Astyages the last "kai = king" of Median empire and rendered the throne of Median empire to Cyrus II of Anzan ( Anshan).

He did not oppress the people of the defeated country and he respected women and children. And they even say that in a failed country, when his assistant talks about collecting tribute and taxes, he says let them pay tribute to me wholeheartedly. He did not de-religionize or de-language in any country. He had only one wife. He died on the borders of his country while defending his country and his body was handed over to Pasargad. And with the infrastructure he designed, half the world lived in glory and peace in the shadow of Iran for 220 years.
