Cyrus The Great vastly expanded Persian territories, establishing the Persian Empire, which was the largest the world had ever seen.

Who was Cyrus The Great?
Cyrus The Great was the founder of the Achaemenid Empire - the first Persian empire. During his rule, the empire expanded and conquered most of Western Asia, along with a mass majority of Central Asia.
Cyrus The Great is known for his mercy towards his enemies, and respect towards non-Persian people. After conquering countries, Cyrus would allow the people to maintain their religious beliefs and their way of life, as long as they paid their taxes to the Persian Empire. He is also held responsible for the fall of Babylon!

Hope this helps you! :)
