King Xerxes: What He Did to His Own Daughter Was Worse Than Death
Step inside the world of King Xerxes I, one of the most powerful and controversial rulers of the ancient Persian Empire. Behind the legendary victories, massive building projects, and royal splendour of Persepolis, there were secrets the empire worked hard to bury.
This video explores the hidden events inside Xerxes’ palace—moments of political pressure, family tragedy, and decisions that shaped the future of the Achaemenid dynasty. Drawing on ancient historians like Herodotus and archaeological findings from Persepolis, we uncover how royal life was far more dangerous than it appeared, even for members of the king’s own household.
From palace tensions to the brutal realities of ancient power, this documentary looks at how one decision could change the fate of an empire. All content is presented for historical education, focusing on politics, cultural customs, and royal traditions of 5th-century BCE Persia.
