Xerxes
No.
The Persian king who invaded Greece in 490 BCE was Darius I, also known as Darius the Great. He sought to expand his empire and punish the Greek city-states that had supported a revolt in Asia Minor. This invasion culminated in the famous Battle of Marathon, where the Athenians achieved a significant victory against the Persian forces. Darius's campaign ultimately laid the groundwork for further conflicts between Persia and Greece.
Persia
During Alexander's successful invasion, Persia was not conquering anything, it was on the defensive.
Darius I, known as Darius the Great, was the third king of kings of the Achaemenid Empire. Darius held the empire at its peak, then including Egypt, and parts of Greece. The decay and downfall of the empire commenced with his death and the coronation of his son, Xerxes.
Persia!!!!!
One of them were the Persians.
Darius, king of Persia.
Xerxes became king of Persia in 486 BCE, and he invaded Greece in 480 BCE. Therefore, there were six years between his ascension to the throne and the invasion of Greece.
Turkey

Yes, the Mycenaean people invaded Greece around 1900 B.C. and their leaders became the first Greek kings
Macedonia.
Persia invaded many territories. Which did you have in mind?
Persia invaded Greece simply because they were expanding. This resulted in many revolts from the Greeks (Greco-Persian Wars). Honestly you can simply Google the answers, but yeah they were expanding their empire. -I take AP World History and just went over the chapter- :)
Persia was taking over, but then the Spartans came to help and soon surrounded the Persians. The Persians lost war by losing more than 6000 troops, but then the Greeks lost less then 200 troops.
It was the campaign by King of Kings Xerxes of Persia (Achaemenid dynasty), son of Darius the Great, who followed in the steps of his father and attacked the Western fronts of the Persian Empire to expand Persia and to conquer Greece.
