Persian Empire

Profit.

The Athenians and other Greek city-states rebelled against Persian rule during the Ionian Revolt, which began in 499 BCE. This revolt was partly motivated by the desire for autonomy and resistance against Persian tyranny. The conflict escalated, leading to significant battles such as the Battle of Marathon in 490 BCE, where the Athenians achieved a notable victory against King Darius I's forces. The tensions ultimately contributed to the larger Greco-Persian Wars.

They started by bribing many of the Greek city aristocracies to join them, and mounted an invasion force which they thought would outperform the resisting city-states, particularly as they were duped into thinking Athens would also come across to them and so leave the other Greek navies vastly outnumbered, as had been successfully achieved with the Ionian city-states in the Ionian rebellion.

Greece was in fact the word used for over 2,000 independent city-states. Persia expanded its empire to take in the Greek cities in Asia Minor. Then when the cities in mainland Greece began to interfere on the side of their daughter-cities in Asia Minor, Persia attempted to bring those cities within its empire to keep them quiet. It failed in this after 50 years of war, gave up and turned back to ruling its original empire in Asia. The disruption from the Greek cities and their continuing warfare between each other. This led Persia to impose the King's Peace, threatening retribution to any further disruptions. This ended when Macedonia came to dominate Greece, and then used these resources to invade and takeover Persia under the leadership of Alexander the Great, king of Macedonia.

(apex-) He would believe in only one god.( i had this question myself absolutely true.)

He wanted to maintain peace, stability and prosperity within his empire. When the Greek cities within his empire revolted, and the Greek city-states outside his empire supported them, he decided to bring those external cities within his empire so that, under a Persian provincial governor, they would no longer disrupt the Empire.

They eliminated the Persian navy at Salamis and Mycale, which left them without food supply and unable to sustain land forces outside Asia.

He established 20 provinces and appointed a Persian governor in each to provide internal and external security, collect taxes and carry out development progress. Darius and his council oversaw them, and provided extra security forces as required.

The Greeks had to eliminate the Persian naval threat to their city-states in order for their armies could leave off defending them and unite to face the Persian army.

They blocked the pass of Thermopylae to force the Persians to attempt to turn it by sea. The Greek fleet waited in the nearby channel to pounce. Unfortunately for them they lost the sea battle and the force of 7,000 holding Thermopylae was withdrawn. The Spartan and Thespian contingents stayed behind to cover the withdrawal and were killed.

The Greeks tried again a Salamis and were succful, and their armies united the following summer to defeat the Persian army at Plataea.

Those lying between Libya and Central Asia.

Greek city-states within the Persian Empire in Asia Minor were induced to revolt against Persian rule, and it expanded to include mainland Greece.
