      @@Aj-hs5vw Yeah but he conquered and abolish slavery in all territories that he conqured. If there is a reason why he want to expand his kingdom, that will be to spread his teaching and revolutionary societal rule. If persian had won the battle in greek, slavery can be abolish thousands of years before modern times. You will probably wonder how the world will thrive with a government that does not discriminate different faith and ban slavery.
      Mind you, every kingdom around persia at that time glorify slavery and sacking other cities. Cyrus probably conquered the other kingdom to eliminate the constant looting and sacking of his territories and at the same time spreading the persian way of life without slavery and without discrimination.

It was a bloody mess, a unification was needed whether you are pro persian or not these folks and kingdoms had suffered a lot under assyrian rule and Cyrus the great was a complete game changer of his age truly considering his background of being a nomad of nothing.

    Persian history, civilization, culture, customs and traditions have been one of the richest and most beautiful empires of all time. The first kingdom of the world was Cyrus the Great. A prophet who embodied all the purity and goodness of his time. But he did not force or enslave any people. Liberation of the Jews. Reconciling nations. Due to the enmity and perhaps jealousy of European historians and unfortunately the destruction of history books due to the invasion of Alexander and then the Arab invasion and then the Mongol invasion, historical information about Iran is much less than information about Greece or Rome. The impact that the Iranians had on the evolution of human society, whether through inventions and discoveries and having the greatest scientists and physicians, is a great blessing to humanity. I hope that the services of Iranians to the world will be paid more and better. And know that the Islamic Republic is not the representative of the pure land of our ancestors.

      So what? Cyrus II was the _only_ emperor in ancient times (& the only ruler until the 18th century!) who abolished slavery in his empire. The Greeks were far from the only people to keep slaves; African societies took & used slaves for centuries before any white man thought of going to Africa--when they weren't being enslaved, brutalized, & transported up through North Africa by Arab Muslims, that is. There are even records of African slaves being imported to China.
      As ancient civilizations go, some of the Greek city-states had more freedom overall than any other during their era.

    I love to read and study history. Especially history from the Bible. This video confirms these historical books of the Bible, Daniel, Ezra, Nehemiah, Esther, and 2 Chronicles. Even in the book of Isaiah, which was written about 740 BC foretold that Cyrus the Great would conquer Babylon and how he would conquer them. Cyrus was born in 590 BC, 150 years after Isaiah wrote about him. Isaiah 45:1 To open before him the double doors, so that the gates won't be shut. Cyrus diverted the water from the river Euphrates low enough to go under the walls of Babylon, and the other double doors were left open. Verse 13, Cyrus shall build My (God's) city and let My (God's) exiles (the Israelites) go free. Which were written in the books of Ezra and Nehemiah. Even in the book of Daniel, Daniel was told of the rising and falling of Kingdoms before it happened.

Of course, the Seljuks, the Ghaznavids, the Timurids were Turks, but they considered themselves the great kings of Iran and spoke and wrote in Persian. Of course, the Qajars were also of Turkmen origin, but they also loved Iran and spoke Persian and considered themselves The kings of Iran knew .Historians consider 7 countries as ancient and native countries, which are: Iran Ancient🇮🇷 , China Ancient🇨🇳 , India Ancient 🇮🇳, Rome Ancient🇬🇷 , Egypt Ancient 🇪🇬, Ancient Mexico🇲🇽, Ancient Africa 🇿🇦.

    According to historical data, the Achaemenid Empire in its largest territory extended from the Balkans and Eastern Europe in the West and to the Indus Valley in the East. This empire reached its highest area during the time of Xerxes I, which was about 8 million square kilometers (3.1 million square miles). A region that includes Egypt, Syria, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Iran, Turkmenistan, Kazakhstan, Qatar, Bahrain, China, India, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Tunisia, Lebanon, Palestine, Israel, Georgia, Turkey, Chad, Sudan and many other regions of the world. It would be today.
    The Achaemenians were the first unified empire that ruled this vast area for more than 200 years and are also known as the first superpower in history. On the other hand, one of the special records of the Achaemenids is ruling over 44% of the total population of the planet at the time of the peak expansion of the territory, which has no similar case in history.

    Much of Greece was Persian territory and because of the peace brought about by the Persian rule, Greece prospered so much (even Herodotus was a Persian citizen). After Alexander (the not so great) Greece was devastated, and there was no more peace to bring about intellectual work. That put an end to Greek cultural and intellectual influence in the world.

      @@Quan_Fu , Persians were & are white people. All Iranians are white originated from Eastern Europe long before the arrival of the Slavs. Aryans(Scythians) who migrated to the Iranian Plateau 8 to 10,000 years ago & gradually established their various kingdoms (one of them was the kingdom of Persia). About 2500 years ago Cyrus the king of Persia united all the Iranian kingdoms into one empire (Iranian empire & called it Arya-Shahr, which means the Aryan-Civilization) today it's known as Persian empire because Cyrus was an Iranian-Persian.
      The Iranians had developed many Iranian dialects over time so after they were unified by Cyrus the Great Iranians used their Persian dialect as their unifying dialect which is used to this day. Persian dialect evolved from its ancient Persian to Middle Persian (Pahlavi) and to its modern Persian (Parsi/Farsi) today.
