Solution

The correct option is C Persian
King Darius ruled the Persian empire. Though he was determined to conquer the Greek city states, his first attack on Greece was a failure. His forces advanced toward Europe in 492 BCE, but, when much of his fleet was destroyed in a storm, he returned home. He continued to rule the Persian empire.
