Persian: Korosh-e-Bozorg
Cyrus of Persia, was the founder of the Persian Empire under the Achaemenid dynasty. It was under his own rule that the empire embraced all previous civilized states of the ancient Near East, expanded vastly and eventually conquered most of Southwest Asia and much of Central Asia, parts of Europe and Caucasus.

From the Mediterranean sea and the Hellespont in the west to the Indus River in the east, to create the largest empire the world had yet seen. Cyrus the Great respected the customs and religions of the lands he conquered. It is said that in universal history, the role of the Achaemenid empire founded by Cyrus lies in its very successful model for centralized administration and establishing a government working to the advantage and profit of its subjects.
In fact, the administration of the empire through satraps and the vital principle of forming a government at Pasargadae were the work of Cyrus.
Aside from his own nation, Persia (modern Iran), Cyrus also left a lasting legacy on Jewish religion (through his Edict of Restoration), human rights, politics, and military strategy, as well as on both Eastern and Western civilizations.

  • @hamoonx , it is your ignorance which makes you believe what you believe in. Cyrus is considered a prophet in both Tora and the Bible and his coming was foreseen by Isiyah in the book of prophecies. He was mentioned by name and all he was to do was forcasted more than 100 years before his birth. Cyrus was mentioned 22 times in the Bible and enumerous times in Torat.

    you ignorant pest.
