Today, Persia is known as the country of Iran, but long ago, Persia was once home to various nomadic tribes. It saw the rise of many empires and dynasties. The Assyrians fell to the Medians, who paved the way for the emergence of the Achaemenid Empire, one of the greatest empires in ancient history. Throughout history, Persia made great contributions to the language and culture of the region. Nomadic movements and changing empires meant it was a hub of continuous cultural exploration and development. The Persians established and spread new ways of government, administration, and currency. The region is also the birthplace of Zoroastrianism and new ways of thinking and art. The rise of the Achaemenid Empire is one of the most influential periods in world history. With Cyrus the Great and Darius I, the empire rose to unrivaled heights, gathering vast wealth and territories. Learn how this great empire declined and the role Alexander the Great played in it. ![]() Free Download The Dark Ages (Audiobook) English | ASIN: B0C5199V18 | 2023 | 1 hour and 49 minutes | M4B@320 kbps | 251 MB Author: Joseph McCabe Narrator: Oberon Michaels This pamphlet offers a condensed history of Europe between the fall of the Roman empire and the twelfth century. The author's profound anti-clerical bias becomes apparent as he explores the influence of Christianity on a world in which order was maintained by the imposition of violence, and in which the general populace was kept in a state of ignorance and serfdom. He supports his conclusions with quotes from his own translations of documents of the period. In the final sentence, McCabe sums up his view of the Dark Ages: "What claims to be the highest ethical religion in the world was followed after its general adoption by a general degradation of character to which you will find no parallel in the history of pagan civilization." ![]() Free Download The Chevron Doctrine: Its Rise and Fall, and the Future of the Administrative State (Audiobook) English | ASIN: B0C9VVVFN9 | 2023 | 12 hours and 41 minutes | M4B@64 kbps | 365 MB Author: Thomas W. Merrill Narrator: Mike Chamberlain The Constitution makes Congress the principal federal lawmaker. Power has inevitably shifted to the executive branch agencies that interpret laws already on the books and to the courts that review the agencies' interpretations. Since the Supreme Court's 1984 decision in Chevron v. Natural Resources Defense Council, this judicial review has been highly deferential: courts must uphold agency interpretations of unclear laws as long as these interpretations are "reasonable." But the Chevron doctrine faces backlash from constitutional scholars and, now, from Supreme Court justices who insist that courts, not administrative agencies, have the authority to say what the law is. ![]() Free Download The Agent's Edge: Secret Strategies to Win Listings and Make Your Fortune Selling Real Estate (Audiobook) English | ASIN: B0BTCDY1D4 | 2023 | 5 hours and 44 minutes | M4B@128 kbps | 318 MB Author: Jordan Cohen Narrator: Jordan Cohen, Eric Simon, Matt Lionetti For the first time ever, five-time number-one RE/MAX agent worldwide, Jordan Cohen, reveals his secret sales strategies that will elevate your real estate sales career to the highest levels.
