Their empire was organised into 20 provinces each administered by a Persian governor responsible to the king and his council. Local government in the provinces was in the hands of the traditional city, tribal and petty princes.

Why were the Greeks able to defeat the Persisans on the plain of Marathon?

Because the supporting Persian fleet had left the army and sailed for Athens; and the Greek soldiers (the heavily armed and tactically well organized and professional Hoplites) did a better job manoeuvering and fighting than the lightly armed and more loosely organized Persian soldiers. Tactically, the Athenians drew the Persians into a trap by withdrawing in the center while advancing on the flanks, thus enveloping the Persians. The Athenians were able to cut down many of the fleeing Persians while they were attempting to reembark on the remaining ships.
