Thank you for all the wonderful comments are very appreciated! I wish you a good start of the week ๐โโ๏ธ
Ciro II di Persia, noto come Ciro il Grande (in persiano antico ๏ฟผ๏ฟผ๏ฟผ๏ฟผ ๏ฟผ, trasl. Kuruลก; Anshan, 590 a.C. โ Iassarte, 530 a.C.), รจ stato imperatore persiano e discendente di Ciro I di Persia, membro di quella stirpe dei Teispidi che da qualche tempo controllava la Perside.
Ciro succedette a suo padre Cambise I, liberรฒ i Persiani dal dominio dei Medi e fu l'erede naturale delle grandi monarchie mediorientali. Non รจ perรฒ del tutto certa la sua discendenza da Achemene: Dario, secondo Winckler, imparentato con Ciro il Grande, durante il suo regno avrebbe comandato di falsificare tutte le iscrizioni di Pasargadae per sancire il suo legame col capostipite della dinastia achemenide.[2] Ciro II unificรฒ sotto il suo regno le varie tribรน iraniche, conquistรฒ Babilonia nel 539 a.C. senza combattere, ma con un'abile politica di propaganda; infatti, approfittรฒ della particolare strategia politica del sovrano babilonese, Nabonedo, che al culto del dio Marduk preferรฌ quello del dio della luna Sin (cosa mal vista dal popolo). Ciro II pensรฒ di proclamarsi figlio di Marduk, cosรฌ fece cacciare dal popolo il sovrano mesopotamico e fu accolto come salvatore. Nel 538 a.C. emise anche un editto che consentiva agli Ebrei non solo di fare ritorno in patria, ma di ricostruire il tempio di Gerusalemme. In questo modo il sovrano ottenne anche il controllo dell'area fenicio-palestinese.
Conquistรฒ anche alcune regioni ai confini nordorientali della Persia, si assicurรฒ il controllo della Siria e delle cittร fenicie, estendendo i confini del suo regno, che mantenne integro attraverso una politica avveduta, fondata nel conferire libertร ai popoli sottomessi e nel rispetto delle loro usanze.
Morรฌ nel 530 a.C. combattendo contro gli sciti massageti guidati dalla regina Tomiri[3] e fu sepolto nella sua ormai celebre tomba a Pasargadae (non lontano da Persepoli); il suo successore fu il figlio Cambise II.
Ciro II รจ ricordato come un grande comandante militare, come un sovrano illuminato, amante dell'arte e della cultura, attuรฒ una politica libertaria, fatta di autonomie locali, ma che fu destinata, in breve tempo, al fallimento.

Cyrus II of Persia, known as Cyrus the Great (in ancient Persian KUURUU SHA, transl. Kuruลก; Anshan, 590 BC - Iassarte, 530 BC), was a Persian emperor and descendant of Cyrus I of Persia, a member of that lineage of the Theispids which for some time had controlled Perside.
Ciro succeeded his father Cambyses I, freed the Persians from the dominion of the Medes and was the natural heir of the great Middle Eastern monarchies. However, his ancestry from Achemene is not entirely certain: Darius, according to Winckler, related to Cyrus the Great, during his reign would have commanded to falsify all the inscriptions of Pasargadae to establish his link with the founder of the Achaemenid dynasty. [2] Cyrus II unified the various Iranian tribes under his reign, conquered Babylon in 539 BC. without a fight, but with a clever propaganda policy; in fact, he took advantage of the particular political strategy of the Babylonian sovereign, Nabonidus, who preferred that of the god of the moon Sin to the cult of the god Marduk (which is not seen by the people). Cyrus II thought of proclaiming himself son of Marduk, so he had the Mesopotamian ruler expelled from the people and was accepted as savior. In 538 BC he also issued an edict that allowed the Jews not only to return to their homeland, but to rebuild the temple in Jerusalem. In this way the sovereign also obtained control of the Phoenician-Palestinian area.
He also conquered some regions on the northeastern borders of Persia, ensured control of Syria and the Phoenician cities, extending the borders of his kingdom, which he maintained intact through a prudent policy, founded on giving freedom to the subjugated peoples and respecting their customs.
He died in 530 BC. fighting against the Scythians massagetes led by Queen Tomiri [3] and was buried in his now famous tomb in Pasargadae (not far from Persepolis); his successor was his son Cambyses II.
Ciro II is remembered as a great military commander, as an enlightened ruler, a lover of art and culture, he implemented a libertarian policy, made up of local autonomies, but which was doomed, in a short time, to failure.
