Cyrus established the Persian Empire on the back of the Assyrian and Babylonian empires. Cambyses extended it into North Africa. Darius extended it into northeast Europe and western India, and consolidated it. Xerxes attempted to extend it into mainland Greece, and failing, concentrated on re-consolidating it in Asia and north Africa.
