Darius maintained control over his empire by dividing existing territories into provinces and placing satraps to lead the provinces. Darius began his leadership by creating a good and efficient government and administration system.

 

EXPLANATION  

Darius I / Darius the Great was the fourth Persian king. Becoming a Persian King means to be the King of the Kings in the Achaemenid Empire. Darius ruled at the height of the royal glory. At that time, the kingdom covered most of West Asia, Central Asia, even as far as northern and north-eastern Africa such as Egypt, Libya, and Sudan.  

Darius ascended the throne to become king by overthrowing Gautama. Gautama was accused of being a corruptor, but this new King was always confronted with rebellions throughout his kingdom. He continued to fight and tried to extinguish them at any time. The big event in Darius's leadership was his decision to punish Athena and Eretria. Both men were accused of providing assistance to the Ionian Rebellion.

Darius began his leadership by creating a good and efficient government and administration system. He governed the kingdom by splitting-up the existing areas into provinces and placing satraps to lead the provinces. Besides, Darius set Achaemenid coins as a currency in their monetary system. At the same time setting currencies, he also made Aramaic the official language of the empire.

In his system of government, he placed the empire in a better position in accordance with the weight and duties of his work. He was also known to build roads. Through many of these changes, the empire became centralized and efficient. The name Darius is remembered in the books of Zechariah, Haggai, and Ezra-Nehemiah.
