In what ways would it be accurate to say that the Persians actually won over the Turks?
I'm not sure you can say it at all, both empires were not contemporary, and they weren't established in the same geographical area. The Ottoman Empire controled parts of Iran for a short time, but were eventually overthrown. As for "persians" ever winning over the Turks, I can't think of a single instance.

How did Cyrus treat the Hebrew people in the lands he captured?
He allowed the Judean aristocracy, which had been deported to Babylon by the Babylonians, to return to Judea to try to reclaim their estates if they wished. Half declined because they were well established in Babylon and stayed. The returnees had mixed success - many could not provide credible evidence to their claim. The successful ones became the new aristocracy in Judea.
The reason they had been deported in the first place was that the Babylonians followed the practice of their predecessors the Assyrians, by exchanging aristocracies of conquered territories so that peoples were ruled by foreigners who were not sympathetic to them and so avoid uprisings. The aristocracies of the 10 northern tribes of Hebrews had been sent by the Assyrians to rule peoples there, and aristocracies from Assyria sent to rule the 10 tribes. The Babylonians did the same thing with the two southern tribes - Judah and Benjamin a century later, and thn incoming Persian Cyrus gave them their chance and came back to take over the two southern tribes. This didn't happen to the northern 10 tribes, giving rise to the fable that the people had disappeared. The common people remained in Israel under foreign rulers in the north. And the common people of the two southern tribes remained in the south.
What is one quality of Esther Queen of Persia?
The story of Esther holds a very important role in the teachings of Judaism. Contrary to what many people mistakenly believe, she was not the most beautiful woman, rather, the reason she was chosen by King Achashveros was because of her modesty. The king provided the best of garments, jewels, perfumes, etc to the women participating in the beauty contest, however, Esther eschewed these gifts and chose to dress very modestly without jewels, etc.
In all of her actions, Esther was motivated by pure love for both HaShem (The Creator) and her fellow Jews. Despite her situation (thinking she was going to lose her place in the world to come), she never lost faith or hope. Esther had a pure mind.
