Description:

Play as the first Pharaoh and Shahshanshah, Cambyses II; in Sid Meier’s Civilization VI.

The Achaemenid Persians plotted to strike the Nile during the reign of Cyrus the Great, their progenitor. Fate however struck down the first Shashanshah before he could subdue the lands of Turan, the Great Steppe. Cyrus’s son and successor, Cambyses II, would take up the cause of world domination by invading Egypt and becoming both Shah and Pharaoh. Persians ruled over Egypt in three different instance, twice under the Achaemenids and once under the Sasanids. The Persians were ineffectual in spreading the Iranian pantheon(s) nor Zoroastrianism, though their customs and cultures were often welcomed across the Levant. The legacy of Persian Egypt is one of militarisation, especially the need for a massive Mediterranean-worthy fleet, and of tolerance coupled with efficient taxation.
