The wars of Cyrus the Great to close the territory of Iran

Cyrus' fight with the king of Lydia:

With hegemonic conquest in the year 559 (P . M ) The reign of Cyrus begins. Then Cyrus with Croesus, the king of Lady country (Lydia) He fought and defeated him. He finally managed to capture the golden city of Sard. By conquering Lydia, the countries of Iran and Greece bordered. Because Lydia was located in Asia Minor. Cyrus captured Croesus and brought him with him to Iran and appointed a Persian named Tabalos as the governor of Sardis.. In order to show his trust to the people of Lydia, he appointed one of Croesus's former relatives named Pactias to be in charge of managing finances and keeping the treasury.. But Paktias decided to prepare an army and defeat the Persians with the help that Cyrus entrusted to him.. Therefore, he started a rebellion and besieged the city of Arak. Cyrus sent a Median general named Mazares to Sard to restore order and arrest Paktias, as a result of which Paktias was arrested and order returned to Sard..

After this incident, Kurosh started to clear the disturbance from Ferangiyeh and Kariyeh. Both of these countries were located in Asia Minor.

Cyrus attacked Armenia:

Cyrus thought of attacking Armenia, because the Armenian king did not pay tribute and taxes to the Medes and did not send troops and soldiers to help the Medes.. Therefore, Cyrus entered the territory of Armenia with some cavalry under the pretext of hunting and told Kiaxar, the ruler of the Medes, that you must gather an army and keep it near the border of Armenia, so that when I deem the situation suitable, your army will attack Armenia.. Kyaksar did the same and as a result, Cyrus was able to easily conquer Armenia.

The motivation of Cyrus' war with the Chaldeans was due to their attack on Armenia and the robbery and looting that the Chaldeans did.. Of course, it was appropriate for the Chaldeans to do this because of their poverty and lack of agricultural land. After the request for peace from the Chaldeans, Cyrus signed a peace agreement between them and the king of Armenia.. According to that, the king of Armenia agreed to give suitable agricultural land to the Chaldeans, and in return they pledged to allow Armenian cattle to graze in their pastures and to stop looting and stealing Armenian property..

Cyrus attacked Assyria and Babylon:

Babylon was a very beautiful and rich city at that time, and according to the writings of Herodotus and other ancient Greek historians, it had very strong fortresses that were built around the Euphrates River.. At that time, the people of Babylon lived mostly through trade and had special beliefs about the gods. Most of the people of Babylon believed in the sorcery and sorcery of temple priests and idolatry.

Cyrus attacked Babylon and Assyria in the year 539 (p.m ) The event was apparently motivated by the murder of the son of one of the Babylonian courtiers named Geberbais, who took refuge with Cyrus and provided his fortress with plenty of food to Cyrus and his troops.. Instead, he asked Cyrus to attack Babylon and destroy the king there, because he had killed his son.. After that, Cyrus had many supporters in Babylon who encouraged him to conquer that city. The result of the war between Cyrus and the king of Babylon was the defeat of Babylon. With this victory, Cyrus took control of the most important neighboring country of Iran and issued his declaration of human rights, which guaranteed freedom in religion, belief and place of residence..

Iran's dominance over Phoenicia and Palestine:

After the conquest of Babylon, Chaldea country with the ancient cities of Sumer and Akkad and all the colonies of the former Babylonian country became Iran.. Phenicia was among these countries. The Phoenicians were a Saminejad people, who came from Arabia about 2500 years before the birth of Christ and later settled between the Maghreb Sea. (Mediterranean) And the mountains of Mount Lebanon chose a home. The Phoenicians said that their original homeland was the shores of the Persian Gulf. They also called themselves Canaanites. Phenicia is the Arabized name that the Greeks gave to this country and it means the goddess of the red sun. Their religion was polytheism and idolatry. Since the Phoenicians were located between Babylon and Egypt, they were influenced by both civilizations. They had a very extensive trade that extended from the West to the British Isles and from the East to the Baghaz region of Malaga near Indochina.. They also had colonies in South Africa. The Phoenicians were first followers of Egypt, then in the century 8 (P. M ) under the rule of the Assyrians and at the beginning of the century 6 (P. M ) They were captured by the Babylonians. After the conquest of Babylon by Cyrus, they became part of Iran. Inventing purple color or finding an animal from which this color is taken (Probably mixed fish) They attribute the invention of glass and the invention of the alphabet to the Phoenicians. Some western scientists believe that the Latin alphabet was derived from the Hebrew script and spread in European countries..
