Explain how the persians were not like the assyrians or the babylonians. give at least one example from each culture. must be 125 words

The ancient Persians were famously more lenient than the Assyrians and more militarily adept than the Babylonians. the Assyrians maintained a massive control through harsh punishments to criminals, in hopes to control the population through fear. the Babylonians on the other hand are famous for being conquered. Babylonians also pushed for religious conformity something the Persians never did. being more lenient allowed the Persians to expand their reign and insure loyalty through allowing local customs to flourish and by propagandizing competing powers as harsh, harsh tyrannical overlords.
