Detailed explanation-2: -In 550 B.C.E. Cyrus II (also known as ‘the Great’) came to power over the Persians, uniting the tribes and rebelling against the Medes. He also attacked and conquered the kingdoms of Lydia in 546 B.C.E. and Babylon in 539 B.C.E. Cyrus achieved Persian independence and conquered all the lands of the Medes.
