In the chaos of a modern war, Professor Kourosh, a historian obsessed with ancient Persia, meets an untimely end. But his story is just beginning. He is reborn as the infant "Cyrus" in antiquity, on the very cusp of the Achaemenid Empire's rise, with his 21st-century knowledge and a perfect memory intact. Armed with this unique advantage, can a modern mind not only survive in the ancient world but build an empire to surpass its legendary namesake?
This epic novel is a journey into alternate history, where Cyrus unleashes unprecedented innovations. From inventing a new Persian script, paper, and soap in his childhood to revolutionizing the army with doctrines inspired by Sun Tzu, Roman principles, and modern military science. He rebuilds the systems of governance and justice with principles of human rights and reason, fosters the theoretical and experimental sciences, and builds an infrastructure beyond the imagination of the era. His goal is not mere conquest, but to forge a civilization founded on justice, tolerance, and progress—an empire strong enough to last a thousand years and avoid its historical fate at the hands of Alexander the Great.
"My Persian Empire" is the story of an attempt to create an ancient utopia, a world where extreme nationalism gives way to mutual understanding and coexistence, and where the great civilizations of the world, from Rome and Greece to India and China, learn from Persia's progress. This thrilling tale will take you to the heart of strategic battles, courtly intrigue, and scientific and cultural revolutions, showing how one leader with modern vision can not only rewrite history but leave an eternal legacy for humanity.
Author's Note
Hello to my dear companions!
I am proud to present to you my first novel, "My Persian Empire." This work is the result of my years of interest in kingdom-building web-novels and the glorious history of Iran. In creating this novel, I have utilized the capabilities of artificial intelligence (AI)—particularly models like Gemini 2.5 Flash or Grok 3—to be able to create a rich and detailed story. However, I must emphasize that every idea and every plotline has been under my complete and direct management and supervision. Artificial intelligence has been a powerful tool in my hands to turn my dream into reality, but the soul, thought, and human creativity of this work are my own. I know that as a novice writer, there may be flaws in my work, but I have created it with all my being for you, and I hope you enjoy this historical-fictional journey. Your support and feedback will be my greatest motivation to continue this path and create the next volumes. With many thanks for your companionship.
