For instance, when one general made a tactical retreat, Darius III suspected him of turning on his nation and had him killed. Four of the seven major generals of Persia were killed by Darius, crippling the Empire's military movement. By the time Darius III died, much of the organization had collapsed, due to his mental illness. With no organized government, the provinces of Persia governed themselves.
