Xerxes I (c. 518 – August 465 BC), commonly known as Xerxes the Great, was a Persian ruler who served as the fourth King of Kings of the Achaemenid Empire, reigning from 486 BC until his assassination in 465 BC. He was the son of Darius the Great and Atossa, a daughter of Cyrus the Great. He is a leader in Civilization VII.

This is one of Xerxes's two alternate personas, the other being Xerxes, The Achaemenid.

Intro

Xerxes inherited the Achaemenid Empire at a time of crisis and guided it to greatness. Swiftly crushing two uprisings upon taking power, he set his sights on Greece and invaded in 480 BCE. After defeat at Salamis ended his European ambitions, Xerxes shifted his attention from expansion to enrichment, devoting his treasury to architectural masterpieces, testaments to the triumph he bestowed on his people and the fear he provoked in his enemies.
