The Persians held a profound reverence for kingship, viewing their rulers, particularly the Great Kings, as divinely ordained figures embodying both authority and justice. They believed that kings were responsible for maintaining order, prosperity, and the favor of the gods, which reinforced the importance of their leadership. The concept of "King of Kings" highlighted the idea of a supreme ruler overseeing a vast, diverse empire, emphasizing both the unity and the hierarchy within Persian society. This belief in the sanctity of kingship contributed to the stability and longevity of the Persian Empire.

They provided security, tried to advance prosperity and left the local government to continue its traditional practices.
