King Cyrus the Great of Persia did not control Athens. During his reign, Persia expanded its territory significantly, but Athens remained an independent city-state until the Persian Wars, where it faced conflicts with Persia. The most notable conflict was during the Battle of Marathon in 490 BC when the Athenians defeated Persian forces.
