The past does not mirror the future, so modern states can mirror the Persian Empire, not the other way round.

Responsible modern states try to achieve good government, security and prosperity for their peoples. This is what the Persian empire tried to do, setting a good example for the present.

However, like the present states and their wars and failings, the Persian Empire had limited success, and its prosperity attracted the covetous eyes of the Macedonians. Phillip II planned to take it over, and prepared and an invasion. His son Alexander took over the project after Phillip was assassinated, and destroyed the Empire before he himself died/was killed, and the Empire was split up amongst his generals.
