The persian government was built upon the Assyrian model. The system was more efficient and humane.
![Page 14: ACHAEMENID EMPIRE (PERSIA) BY HEATHER MCTAGGART, KIAN LOO, DAKOTA WONG, WASSEM EL-AGHA AND ZAHRA PALIWALLA](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022081512/551be9f4550346c3588b6231/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
The empire was divided into twenty provinces, or satrapies. Each province was ruled by a governor called a satrap. The satraps ultimately we’re the eyes for the king.
![Page 15: ACHAEMENID EMPIRE (PERSIA) BY HEATHER MCTAGGART, KIAN LOO, DAKOTA WONG, WASSEM EL-AGHA AND ZAHRA PALIWALLA](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022081512/551be9f4550346c3588b6231/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
• The Persian empire was the first to attempt to govern many different racial groups primarily based on the principles of equal responsibilities and the rights for all people. The Persian empire provided the modern world with traits and values which the society today carries out.
• The Government maintains the word only if the subjects paid their taxes and kept peace.
