Darius I, also known as Darius the Great, significantly expanded the Persian Empire during his reign from 522 to 486 BCE. He conquered vast territories, including parts of modern-day Egypt, Libya, Thrace, and regions of the Indus Valley. His empire eventually stretched from the Indus River in the east to the Aegean Sea in the west, covering approximately 2.9 million square kilometers (1.1 million square miles). This expansion made the Persian Empire one of the largest empires in history at that time.
