The Rise and Fall of the Persian Empire by Epic Epoch

(Disclaimer: This is an original work of historical non-fiction by Epic Epoch.)

 

How did Persia create one of the most advanced empires the world had ever seen—and lose it to a 20-year-old conqueror? This is the powerful story of the Achaemenid Empire—from the tolerance of Cyrus the Great to the downfall at the hands of Alexander. Discover how innovation, multiculturalism, and ambition forged a golden age... until pride and miscalculation ended it.

 

"He who cannot obey himself will be commanded." – Zoroastrian proverb

 

Experience the glory of Persepolis, the daring expeditions, and the unraveling of an empire once thought invincible.

P.S. Persia was more than just a rival of Greece—it was a marvel of ancient governance, and this book brings it back to life.
