From today's Libya across the Middle East to Central Asia and Pakistan.
The Persian Empire was larger than the Greek Empire at its height. The Persian Empire, particularly during the Achaemenid dynasty, spanned three continents—Asia, Africa, and Europe—encompassing a vast territory that included parts of modern-day Iran, Egypt, Turkey, and beyond. In contrast, the Greek Empire, primarily associated with city-states like Athens and Sparta, was more fragmented and did not achieve the same territorial expanse as Persia. Thus, in terms of land area and influence, the Persian Empire was significantly bigger.

The Persian Empire, primarily located in the region of modern-day Iran, extended at its height from the northeastern parts of the Mediterranean to parts of Central Asia and the Indian subcontinent. On a map, it can be roughly identified in the area covering coordinates 25°N to 40°N latitude and 44°E to 60°E longitude. This expansive territory included significant regions such as Mesopotamia, parts of the Caucasus, and western Iran.

The Persian Empire existed in the general area of Iran in ancient times, and spread into the area of the Middle East, and modern Turkey and as far west as Libya in Africa and Greece on the Balkan Peninsula.The first empire of Persia was the Achaemenid Empire of Cyrus the Great, which fought with the Greeks and lasted from around 550 BC to 330 BC, when much of its territory was conquered by Alexander the Great. The subsequent Seleucid Greek Empire was succeeded in Persia by a smaller dominion known as the Parthian Empire, from 247 BC to 224 AD.This kingdom fell under the rule of Ardashir I of the Fars Province in Persia, who created the Sassanid Empire (also known as the Second Persian Empire), which was mostly confined to SW Asia and lasted from 224 to 651 AD, when it was conquered by Islamic Arabs.
It established 20 provinces each under a Persian governors who were responsible to the king and his council.
