The Achaemenid Empire (Hakhamanesh Empire) was an ancient empire based in Asia and was founded by Syrus the Great 539 B.C. It extended from modern day Eastern Europe to India (more than 10 million km) which made it larger than any other empire in history. The Achaemenid Empire was a great example of a social order that had a central state, social security, an army, and the most crucial service was the rights of individuals. At the time people had many unusual rights, such as equality between men and women which was a wonderful achievement.

Also they built a tremendous palace called Takht Jamshid (Persepolis) in the southern center of the Persian Plateau. Agriculture and business were the most common industries those days because the empire had a lot of transportation routes through the mainland. The empire and Cyrus the Great influenced American Founding Fathers who were inspired to write their human rights in the constitution similar to what Cyrus the Great, Machiavelli, and some philosophers had written. Finally they preferred to take Cyrus the Great’s example.
