Akhenaten tried to bring about a departure from traditional religion, yet in the end it would not be accepted. After his death, traditional religious practice was gradually restored, and when some dozen years later rulers without clear rights of succession from the Eighteenth Dynasty founded a new dynasty, they discredited Akhenaten and his immediate successors, referring to Akhenaten himself as "the enemy" in archival records.[5]
He was all but lost from history until the discovery, in the 19th century, of Amarna, the site of Akhetaten, the city he built for the Aten. Early excavations at Amarna by Flinders Petrie sparked interest in the enigmatic pharaoh, which increased with the discovery in the Valley of the Kings, at Luxor, of the tomb of King Tutankhamun, who has been proved to be Akhenaten's son according to DNA testing in 2010 by Zahi Hawass of Cairo.[6] Akhenaten remains an interesting figure, as does his Queen, Nefertiti. Their modern interest comes partly from his connection with Tutankhamun, partly from the unique style and high quality of the pictorial arts he patronized, and partly from ongoing interest in the religion he attempted to establish.

What was Xerxes foreign policy?
"Xerxes foreign policy was to allow for any other religion, but if any country had challenged him in any way he would tell them what to believe in, also if you were not apart of his empire then you would be attacked until they gave submission of earth and water."Xerxes I had a custom of requesting a tribute of "land and water" as a policy towards nations before seizing them or adding them to the Persian empire. Examples of nations that revolted against him and had their religion removed from their land -as mentioned in the previous answer- were -supposedly- Babylon and Egypt. This method of expanding the Persian empire was an improvement over earlier methods used my the Assyrians that involved generally just beating everyone around them into a bloody submission. Smart administrative decisions by Xerxes I saw the nations willingly become tributaries of the Persian empire and even in some cases wanting to become a part of the Persian empire.*Italic writing indicates a previous response not removed.
