Persia
Persia, 500 B.C.: a society at it's peak, a civilization that is as powerful as it is vast.
At this time Persia had conquered the likes of Babylon, Media, and Lydia. It was obvious that Darius I and his father-in-law, Cyrus the great, had been two very powerful and capable leaders...but had Persia always been as it was? Would Persia continue to succeed and be one of the superpowers of the known world? In reality, Persia was not always very powerful, and would fall to the hands of Alexander the Great.
