A podcast dedicated to the history of Persia, and the great empires that ruled there beginning with the Achaemenid Empire of Cyrus the Great and the foundation of an imperial legacy that directly impacted ancient civilizations from Rome to China, and everywhere in between. Join me as we explore the cultures, militaries, religions, successes, and failures of some of the greatest empires of the ancient world.

History of Persia is back as we enter the Hellenistic Age. From a veterans&#39; revolt in Bactria to the Lamian War in Greece, Perdiccas became the new regent of Alexander the Great&#39;s Empire in a chaotic time of shifting allegiances.

Last time, we got up to speed on what was going on in the Near East in the centuries before the Persians showed up. What we didn&#39;t cover, was who exactly are these &#34;Persians,&#34; and what were they doing while their future empire was being taken over by the Assyrians. This time, we figure that out as we follow some steppe nomads called the Proto-Indo-Europeans on their 3000-ish year journey to becoming the Persians.

Remastered - Here we go, episode 1!

Alexander the Great had many relationships, both romantic and familial. From mother and father, Olympias and Philip, to a vast array of step-mothers and siblings to at least four romantic and sexual partners, the Macedonian royal family was as vast as it was confusing and controversial. <a href="https://patreon.com/historyofpersia" rel="nofollow">Patreon </a>| <a href="https://anchor.fm/dashboard/episode/e1o4k9h/metadata/edit" rel="nofollow">Support Page </a>| <a href="https://historyofpersia.launchcart.store/" rel="nofollow">STORE</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/HistoryOfPersia" rel="nofollow">Twitter </a>| <a href="https://facebook.com/HistoryOfPersiaPodcast" rel="nofollow">Facebook </a>| <a href="https://www.instagram.com/historyofpersiapodcast/" rel="nofollow">Instagram</a> Our Sponsors: * Check out Rosetta Stone and use my code TODAY for a great deal: www.rosettastone.com Support this podcast at — <a rel='payment' href='https://redcircle.com/history-of-persia/donations'>https://redcircle.com/history-of-persia/donations</a> Advertising Inquiries: <a href='https://redcircle.com/brands'>https://redcircle.com/brands</a> Privacy & Opt-Out: <a href='https://redcircle.com/privacy'>https://redcircle.com/privacy</a>

In 323 BCE, Alexander the Great was preparing for future campaigns. Some sources say that Alexander wanted to defeat Carthage. Others say Alexander planned to attack Rome, but the most likely candidate was actually Alexander&#39;s planned Arabian campaign. <a href="https://patreon.com/historyofpersia" rel="nofollow">Patreon </a>| <a href="https://anchor.fm/dashboard/episode/e1o4k9h/metadata/edit" rel="nofollow">Support Page </a>| <a href="https://historyofpersia.launchcart.store/" rel="nofollow">STORE</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/HistoryOfPersia" rel="nofollow">Twitter </a>| <a href="https://facebook.com/HistoryOfPersiaPodcast" rel="nofollow">Facebook </a>| <a href="https://www.instagram.com/historyofpersiapodcast/" rel="nofollow">Instagram</a> Our Sponsors: * Check out Rosetta Stone and use my code TODAY for a great deal: www.rosettastone.com Support this podcast at — <a rel='payment' href='https://redcircle.com/history-of-persia/donations'>https://redcircle.com/history-of-persia/donations</a> Advertising Inquiries: <a href='https://redcircle.com/brands'>https://redcircle.com/brands</a> Privacy & Opt-Out: <a href='https://redcircle.com/privacy'>https://redcircle.com/privacy</a>

In 324 BCE, Alexander the Great took his first real break from war since he became king. At Susa, he orchestrated the mass marriage of his highest officers with Iranian noblewomen and honored the war heroes of his recent campaigns. Alexander faced another mutiny at Opis before heading to Ecbatana, where his closest companion, Hephaestion, died suddenly of an unknown illness, throwing the king into a deep depression. <a href="https://patreon.com/historyofpersia" rel="nofollow">Patreon </a>| <a href="https://anchor.fm/dashboard/episode/e1o4k9h/metadata/edit" rel="nofollow">Support Page </a>| <a href="https://historyofpersia.launchcart.store/" rel="nofollow">STORE</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/HistoryOfPersia" rel="nofollow">Twitter </a>| <a href="https://facebook.com/HistoryOfPersiaPodcast" rel="nofollow">Facebook </a>| <a href="https://www.instagram.com/historyofpersiapodcast/" rel="nofollow">Instagram</a> Our Sponsors: * Check out Rosetta Stone and use my code TODAY for a great deal: www.rosettastone.com Support this podcast at — <a rel='payment' href='https://redcircle.com/history-of-persia/donations'>https://redcircle.com/history-of-persia/donations</a> Advertising Inquiries: <a href='https://redcircle.com/brands'>https://redcircle.com/brands</a> Privacy & Opt-Out: <a href='https://redcircle.com/privacy'>https://redcircle.com/privacy</a>
