Hinweis der Redaktion
- First, Well talk about Ancient Iran
- Surrounded by natural barriers including deserts, mountains, and the Persian Gulf. This isolation left Iran open to attacks for Central Asian Nomads. They also had to suffer in a hot, dry climate with limited water and resources.
- This harsh environment was a lot harder to live in than other places such as Mesopotamia, and because of these things had a much lower population which lived in the North and West areas. Farming was also tougher since in order to keep the water from evaporation, all irrigation channels had to be underground. Finally, there was probably some dependence on the trade of Iranâs rich mineral deposits and timber.
- If you remember from the last chapter, a people known as the Medes helped the Chaldeans overthrow the Assyrian Empire. This same civilization is the ancestor of the Persian Empire. Persians first started gaining power through the early Persian rulers, known as Achaemenids because of their lineage to Achaemenes, who married Medians to get power. However, it wasnât untill Cyrus came along and united the Persians against the Medians before they gained complete power.
- How does Darius rule the largest empire in the world? To start, he split the empire into 20 pieces and placed a governor known as a satrap in charge. Over the satrap court became like a miniature Persian royal court, with the position becoming hereditary. Also, some satraps from outer provinces had much autonomy, meaning they basically ruled without Persian interference. However, no matter how far away each province paid much tribute, which the central government horded so much that it became scarce in some areas. This tribute did pay for well-maintained roads that all converged at Susa, the capital of the Persian empire, and for garrisons that kept the population from revolting.The kings were seen as the masters of the people, and they controlled large amounts of land throughout the empire known as âKings Landâ
- The kings were also law givers, but in much the same way as Cyrus, allowed other rituals, civilizations, and religions to continue throughout the empire. He managed the central administration of the kingdom at Susa, but he did perform ceremonies at Persepolis, in the Persian homeland.Women also had a much higher standing in the empire than in other civilizations. They could own land, travel freely, and could potentially be politically influential.
- The main religion of the area was Zoroastrianism. We are not sure who founded Zoroastrianism, but the hymns are credited to Zoroaster. These hymns are called Gathas. Now, believers of Zoroastrianism believe in a dual universe, a physical one, which we live in, and a spiritual one, in which the god of good, Ahuramazda, continueally fights the god of evil, Angra.

- Greece is located in parts of the Mediterranean Sea and western Asia. It is a mountainous region, with a low amount of farmland compared to most other great civilizations. This is in part because of the fact that Greece is made up of islands. The climate; however, was hot and dry in the summer and the winter was cool because of air brought in from the ocean.
