- The Persian Empire was one of the most mysterious civilizations in the ancient world. Persia became an empire under the Cyrus the Great, who created a policy of religious and cultural tolerance that became the hallmark of Persian rule. Engineering feats include an innovative system of water management; a cross-continent paved roadway stretching 1500 miles; a canal linking the Nile to the Red Sea; and the creation of one of the Seven Wonders of the World, the Mausoleum of Maussollos.
The most advanced technologie and the biggest Empire of all time: P E R S I A

Kurdian knot at one time the Phrygians were without a king. An oracle at Telmissus (Makri) (the ancient capital of Phrygia) decreed that the next man to enter the city driving an ox-cart should become their king. A peasant farmer named Kurdias drove into town on an ox-cart. His position had also been predicted earlier by an eagle landing on his cart, a sign to him from the gods, & on entering the city Kurdias was declared king by the priests. Out of gratitude, his son Midas dedicated the ox-cart
Persian and Greek "People" were friends in those days and shared knowledg and scientific findings between eachother. Only the elit's of their time were fighting eachother over dfferences of ideas and power. When Alexander took over, He himself realized that they were more friends than enemies and decided to continue the dynasty. Not knowing his elit's not liking the idea and planned for his death. He was stopped by his own people.
I hate how history channel has to repeat everything after every break
Xerxes the Arrogant. And burning down Athens was a terrible shame. Unforgivable. Xerxes the Arrogant resulted in Alexander the Accursed.
The Persians were unable to break trough at Thermopyle untill a greek shephard named Ephialtes told them of a sheep trail around. Surrounded the Greeks stood no chance and were destroyed.
Yet before this, the Persian's finest, the Immortals, were not able to break the Spartans head on and were forced to retreat.
They are actually phenician boats so yeah. Phenician boats were outnumbered in many fights 4 to 1 and still won.
Kurdias (Kurdius was the name of at least two members of the royal house of Phrygia.The best-known Kurdias was reputedly the founder of the Phrygian capital city Kurdium,the maker of the legendary Kurdian Knot ( Griy Kurdi ) , & the father of the legendary King Midas who turned whatever he touched to gold. The various legends about this Kurdias& Midas (Medeia) imply that they lived sometime in the 2nd millennium BC.kurdia & his son media both names continued to alternate as royal names
@raaspider They said AFTER the hard fights at Thermopylae Xerxes had an easy fight with the 6000 left spartans who were bait ,before they engaged with the united army of all greek city states. So 300 was about true events and really hard fights but u have to understand that overall- Thermopylae was just another loss for the greeks in the war vs Persia.
appears in2rock inscriptions,1east,1 west of Kordias&"Mita of Mushki“is mentioned in Assyrian texts dating to 717,709& the 670s BC.Greek historical, legendary, and mythical stories about Midas(Medes)preserved in both texts &art relate that he had the ears of an ass and,as a gift from the gods,everything he touched turned to gold.One legend claims that a man named Midas or his father Kordia began the royal Phrygian dynasty,thus fulfilling an oracle;both names continued to alternate as royal names
@WaitingxxRoom The largest was the achaemenid empire which was 8 million square km. that's twice the one you stated, but still... :p it's the biggest ancient empire anyway
You can post to Pars.com Video, Photo, Poem, Business Directory..etc .
Pars.com is a community of Persian lovers ..Have fun ..Thanks!
@Persien91 The Persian empire is the biggest ANCIENT empire, meaning it was bigger than the Macedonian empire... Persian empire = 8 million square km, Macedonian empire = 5.2 million square km.
So it was a great deal larger.
But is you think about it:
Persian soldier: "were getting our asses kicked D: "
Persian leaders: "... eh.. lets toss ore meat bags with pointed sticks at them until we win."
at least that is how i understand it.
But this is just how the Demiurge works. Vertical hierarchies of corrupting pseudo-power and arrogance-inducing ego inflation... then he rams these monumental masses of force and ego against each other like some sort of metaphysical particle-collider of souls. In the end, only those souls who bear by force unfortunate Spirits from beyond this dimension bear any suffering which brings back a profit for the Evil Mind behind these scenes.
Well, I hope Iran and Irak rise again and maintain the historical record intact. It would be a shame that the new radical and fanatic Islamic groups destroy the historical cities, arts and monuments just because these old empires were "pagan".
Why are they showing an image of the isthmus of Corinth, yet are talking about the isthmus near Mt. Athos?
@raaspider think of this... the losses of the persian empire wasnt too much for them but
@TungstenWall you sound like ali g
@Marduniya What an amazing retort, I'm sure you've spent countless hours staring at a blank reply box before those words of wisdom came to be.
Hint, when you don't agree with someone and just throw out any random insult it doesn't make you anymore right or righteous.
If you don't consider that 'PersianSoldier4Ever" spouting crazy talk then I really don't give a shit, It'd be obvious that logic would have no impact anyhow. Whatever rocks your boat.
As if you were there that day.
it isn't modern political propaganda. after Thermopylae the Greek politic formed and eventually led to Alexander the Greek conquering Asia.
they burned Athens but Athens survived and eventually the Greeks destroyed the Persians
i like turtles
it's from 3 years ago..
Relax, Iran is doing very well, and it stands on it's feet, if anyone attacks Iran, if they really dare to, Iran would respond with a crushing response.
get your facts straight...the Persians were held in Thermopylae for 7 days altogether, 3 of which were battle/fighting. For 2 days the Greeks held firm. On the 3rd day the Persians were able to bypass/outflank the Greek army, led behind their positions through a secret mountain passage by a local resident named Ephialtes...When Leonidas realized he'd been encircled, he dismissed the bulk of the Greek army and remained to guard their retreat with 300 Spartans, 700 Thespians and 400 Thebans...
No man i don't agree with you, because it depens how you calculat that empire, look at the maps they are totaly different,
hahaha! ''liar'' you say...more like ''the father of history'', as he's been called by scientists and scholars all over the world for centuries now. He was the first historian ever and many of the things we know today about ancient Greeks, Persians, Egyptians, Phoenicians, Indians etc. came from his stories/records...show some respect...
@c8h3p if everyone migrated from africa in the end aren't you all africans? and i don't think hitler would approve of the persians being aryan i thought they were blue eyes and blond hair
Except this time they will ride on camels and be butchered by a different army.
9th strongest. OOOOOOO. And your country does have camels. And people do ride them and not just at the circus. If you are embarrassed about it than stop riding them.
all this because of a greek liar "Herodotus"
