∙ 8y agoMesopotamia was not monotheistic when it was conquered by the Persian or Achaemenid Empire in the fifth century BC. In that Empire the monotheistic religion now known as Zoroastrianism was formulated and gained strength, eventually becoming the official religion of the state. Monotheistic Zoroastrianism was only displaced on the arrival of another monotheistic religion, Islam, after the area was conquered by the Arabs in 633 CE, and then only gradually.
