It didn't. The Empire was governed according to simple rules - local government was by local people according to their traditional model. This was supervised by 20 provincial governors who were also responsible for security and tax collection. A king and his council oversighted the governors. Zoroaster was a Persian god who had a cult following; the king accepted him an important god. The peoples of the Empire retained their customary gods.
Yes he did collect iron tax.
Nowhere does it say that Solomon was disliked.(The tax-load of which the people later complained, became an issue only after his death. During King Solomon's lifetime, the tax was considered an acceptable necessity.)Jeroboam spoke a related complaint during Solomon's reign, but it doesn't say that anyone sided with him at that time.
A:According to The Bible, Solomon's legacy was the breakup of the United Monarchy into two separate, warring monarchies. The Bible tells us that Solomon's unwise spending and swingeing taxes, maintained by his son, were the cause of the breakup. Another Answer:Scripture says that Solomon's Kingdom was the greatest extend of the blessings to Israel:1 Kings 1:37New International Version (NIV) 37 As the LORD was with my lord the king, so may he be with Solomon to make his throne even greater than the throne of my lord King David!"The Kingdom expanded during Solomon's 40 year reign. It was not until approximately 30 years after his death, that his two sons quarreled over the heavy tax burden one was imposing upon the people and divided against God's will.
After King Solomon, the Israelites split into two nations, with Rehoboam king of Judah, and Jeroboam king of Israel.Rehoboam's father, King Solomon, had levied relatively heavy taxes, which had been used for such large-scale endeavors as building the First Temple. The fact that the nation was so prosperous and happy in his time (1 Kings 4:20) demonstrates that Solomon conducted his governance in a praiseworthy manner.After Solomon's death, the people approached his son Rehav'am (Rehoboam) and asked that he now lower the tax. He ignored the counsel of his elder advisers and refused the people's request. This led the Ten Tribes to turn away from him (1 Kings ch.12).The background reason was because King Solomon had been less than perfectly righteous. This led God to punish him by diminishing his dynasty in the lifetime of his son (Rehoboam). 1 Kings ch.11.A deeper reason is that God wanted the more righteous people of Judah to be influenced by the Ten Tribes as little as possible.See also:Solomon's errorsList of kingsJewish history timeline
God decreed it because of the sin of Solomon. Solomon allowed his foreign wives to turn his heart away from God. The political cause was the failure of Rehoboam to listen to the people's request for a lightened tax burden.
Archaeologists estimate that the city of Jerusalem had no more than 2000 inhabitants in total, at the time attributed to King Solomon. Yet, 1 Kings 11:3 says that he had 700 wives and 300 concubines, which must have included every female person in the entire city. If these figures are even close to correct, all the men of Jerusalem must have lived in voluntary celibacy.The Bible also says that when Rehoboam succeeded his father, Solomon, the people of Israel in the north of his kingdom rose up in rebellion because they were unwilling to continue with the heavy tax burden that Solomon had unwisely imposed. According to the Bible, the people of Judah, in the south, made no such complaint, but for the people in the north life under Solomon would seem to have been intolerable.
