Abstract

Having established the Achaemenian Empire by Cyrus the Great in southwestern Iran, the Persians managed to found the most vigorous government which had been established by that time and defeated most of the civilizations of ancient western Asia. The triumph of Egypt was one of Cyrus’ aims and his son, Cambyses, succeeded in conquering Egypt. Cambyses successor, Darius the Great began to do some political, cultural, economic, and religious proceedings to supervise the satrapies, especially in Egypt. These actions cause the Egyptian texts to entitle him as a great and legitimate legislator. The purpose of this study is to investigate the Political proceedings of Darius the Great, and the fact that the Darius’ Policies evaluate in the Egypt Satrapy to find the Darius political actions in managing of Satrapy. The research method is based on the adaptation of existing sources, old and new, about Dariush's policy and his political and civil reforms for the administration of Egypt, which has been addressed in a descriptive-analytical manner. Based on these documents, one of the stability factors of the political geography of Egypt during Darius time was the implemented policies and his political genius, which made the Persian period one of the historical periods of Egypt. It seems that Darius I dealt the customs, traditions and beliefs of the Egyptian people with tolerance and it led to the development and progress of Egypt in various fields. Also, Darius I managed the land by using native forces along with the Persian commanders and provided the means for the growth and excellence of the economy and culture there.
