There should be a law where the government is allowed to take away the drone owner's drone, if any drone laws are broken beyond extent. For example, if someone were to fly a drone and peep at people in a bad way, the drone could be taken away for 6 months. In Kansas there’s a law called SB 319 which was made to expand the definition of harassment in the Protection from Stalking Act to include certain uses of UAS (NCSL). This idea of taking away the drone for misuse is beneficial because owners…
know about the Persians and their writings comes from an outsider writing about them. A true historian, Herodotus, whose famous book “The Persian Wars” talks about Persians a lot. The Persian Achaemenid dynasty was founded in 539 BCE by King Cyrus the Great. Cyrus took his nomadic warriors and conquered most of Mesopotamia, including The Babylonians. His son, Darius the First, extended Persian control east to the Indus Valley, west to Egypt, and north to Anatolia. The Persian Empire was…

we know as Iran and Afghanistan, an empire arose, Persia. They were a powerful people, conquering everything in their path. But there arose some people in high places that had great influence in their country. These people were Daniel, Esther, and Cyrus, people used by God, people used in such a time as this. Born in another time but with a definite purpose, Daniel overcame many obstacles. Daniel showed faith in God by not dining on the meat that the kind put in front of him. When his…
The Persian Empire was undoubtedly the most powerful empire during its time, and also one of the most powerful empires in history. Even though Cyrus had founded this vast empire, Darius I was the most significant ruler of its history. Darius I came into rule in (approximately) 522 BC. He continued to rule the Persian Empire for nearly 40 years, and established many different ideas that no other leader had thought of. The wide range of innovations and policies created and established by…
“Cyrus’ genius at government was his appreciation of the linguistic, religious, and human rights of all his subjects” (Farrokh p. 44), a lot of writers seemed to have thought Cyrus was a great leader, even Greek writers like Herodotus. Cyrus came up with a human rights charter, which is called “The Cyrus Cylinder,” and this is “regarded as the first human rights charter in history” (Farrokh p. 44). Before entering this course, I had a general concept of who Cyrus the Great was, but I had no idea…
When these two kings are compared in western narratives, they are presented as polar opposites with Cyrus being infinitely compassionate and a near-perfect ruler, and Xerxes being cruel and unjust. Weisehofer begins by explaining why this presentation made sense when thinking of the Achaemenid family, because beginning with Cyrus the empire would continued to grow in power, until the reign of Xerxes which marked the point where it would steadily decline until being…
Cyrus the Great is one of the most successful empire builders of all time. Most conquerors of that time were known to defeat civilizations and strip people of money and goods by violence and then enslave most of them. Cyrus on the other hand “would rule through persuasion and compromise rather than force and humiliation”. He treated leaders with honor and respect. Cyrus even permitted deported people to return to their homelands. Unlike most conquerors that forced their people to practice the…
of Cyrus, Xenophon describes Cyrus as the embodiment of these traits, but Book 8 shows the Persian empire immediately disintegrating after his demise. It would seem that altruism and success as a leader are inadequate, and that Cyrus’ hopes of leaving a legacy disbanded along with his empire. Despite his empire’s lack of longevity, Cyrus was able to leave a legacy through his ability to create such a huge empire, though the qualities and virtues he possesses, and through the impression Cyrus…
