If you mean they had defeated the independent Greek city-states in 480 BCE, they would have installed a puppet government in each of the city states, and a Satrap (governor) for a new province of Greece. The city populations would have been restive, and there would have been frequent coups to get rid of the puppets, just as had happened throughout the previous three hundred years, and had happened in the Greek cities of Asia Minor. These coups would have been put down with increasing ferocity, so Greece would have been in turmoil. How long it would have taken to gain back their independence is anybody's guess.

For the most part, NO. Shiite Islam has supplanted Zoroastrianism as the primary religion of Iran. However, some cultural effects of Zoroastrianism remain in Iran and have become part of the Iranian national culture. The most commonly known of these cultural legacies is the celebration of Nourouz or Persian New Year.
'Anthens' ???? I think you mean 'Athens'.
Pre-Zoroastrian Iranian religion as similar to the religion of the Vedic Indians. Similar deities such as Indra, Varuna and Mitra were worshipped.
The land we now call Iran is but a fragment of what used to be Iran but wtihin the present political confines, the pre-Zoroastiran people of Iran worshipped a number of deities as well as the mother goddess. In Elam, Nanai and Inshushinak were important and continued to be worshipped locally into late Parthian times, after which they were suppressed and gave way to Zoroastrianism.
In language, the ancient people of Iran, prior to the Iranian Aryans who arrived from Central Asia, spoke a variety of languages belonging to several main groups including Caucasic, and Dravidian.

Yes. Persia was founded many centuries B.C. It was known as Persia until 1935, when Reza Shah (the King) declared a new name (Iran) to symbolize the newly industrialized nation. Iran means land of the Aryans. However, due to the thousands of years of history behind the name Persia, the two names are interchangeable.
Marathon was just the fight by the city-state of Athens to repel a Persian punitive expedition sent in response to Athens' meddling in supporting rebellions by Greek cities within the Persian empire. The intent of Persia was to instal an Athenian ex-tyrant Hippias to keep Athens under control. There was no plan to do anything to Greece, which comprised hundreds of independent city-states.
Failure at Marathon led the Persians to think that the only way to keep things quiet was to bring the city-states in mainland Greece within their empire and establish an ethnic frontier, so they invaded peninsula Greece ten years later. If this had succeded, we should remember that even under Persian rule, the Greek cities in Asia Minor prospered and maintained their identity, their cultural and scientific advances outpointing that of mainland Greece. They survived there until 1923 CE when evacuated at the end of the Turkis-Greek war which continued on after World War 1.
And of course there were the western Greeks of Italy, Sicily and the islands who would not have been under Persian rule.
It is interesting to note that more recenty mainland Greece spent hundreds of years under Ottoman Turk rule until it fought for and regained independence in 1832 CE. We just can't know for sure, but the Greeks were cultural survivors who would almost certainly have made a comeback against the Persians, just as they did 2,000 years later against the Turks.
