Question

HISTORY QUESTION EASY MEDAL! :Which ruler of the Persian Empire was known as the "king of kings"?

A.
Leonidas

B.
Croesus

C.
Pericles

D.
Darius

Answer 1

The first written record of its consistent use dates to Iranian Kings of the Persian Empire and/or Iranian High Kings of the Persian Empire (pronounced Shahanshah and/or Great Shahanshah). Because the Persian kings and/or Persian High Kings ruled in a format of having other kings below them ruling provinces, satraps, the fact that the Persian kings ruled over other kings gave them the title king of kings.[citation needed] But it is commonly accepted that the Persians wrote this with an implicit notion of relation to a deity, and later with an overt spiritual connotation in the latter Persian empire of the Priest-Kings of the Sassanian Persian Empire.

The title shahanshah was revived by the Pahlavi dynasty of Persia in the 20th century. It was abolished when the Islamic Revolution toppled the monarchy in Iran.

So more than one of these kings were likely known as kings of kings.
