Correct answers: creating a system of coinage; dividing the empire into provinces; forcing conquered people to pay tribute; establishing a complex bureaucracy.
Brief reasons:
- Darius introduced standardized coinage (darics, siglos), which stabilized and stimulated trade.
- He divided the empire into satrapies (provinces) with local administration, improving governance and control.
- He required tributes and taxes from conquered territories, providing steady revenue.
- He set up a sophisticated bureaucracy (satraps, tax collectors, royal inspectors) to administer the vast empire.
"Building cities around the Mediterranean" is not a key factor attributed to Darius’s effective rule.
