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.

In 1520, the Spanish conquistador Hernán Cortés wrote to Spanish King Charles V from the Aztec city of Tenochtitlan in what is n
BARSIC [14]

1) In this passage Cortez is describing in great details the temples, the natives’ religion and how he tried to convince them that there was only one God they should worship. At first natives protested but them accepted the rules imposed by the conqueror.  

2) Cortez describes in a very detailed version how the temples were built. He sounded surprised and amazed by the architecture of the temples as well as the decoration of idols. Evidence from the passage can be found in the following parts: “Among these temples there is one which far surpasses all the rest, whose grandeur of architectural details no human tongue is able to describe”, “The stone and wood of which they are constructed are so well wrought in every part, that nothing could be better done”, “Three halls are in this grand temple, which contain the principal idols; these are of wonderful extent and height, and admirable workmanship”.  

3) According to the excerpt, Cortez did not agree or understand the religion of the natives, especially the part of human sacrifices. He tried to convince natives that there was only one God and that there was not such a thing as receiving favors from the Idols.
