Xerxes I, the son of Darius I, was the fourth king of the Achaemenid Empire and is often remembered for his ambitious military campaigns, particularly the invasion of Greece during the Greco-Persian Wars. Known for his immense wealth and grandiose projects, including the construction of the famous Gate of All Nations at Persepolis, Xerxes also faced significant challenges and setbacks, notably the defeats at the Battles of Marathon and Salamis. His reign is often characterized by a blend of opulence and tyranny, as well as a focus on consolidating and expanding his father's empire.
