His ultimate purpose was to educate the masses with the best truth that he could find.
If the Persians, with their million-plus man army, would have conquered the known world of 550 BC, there never would have been a Roman Empire or a Western Civilization. There could still be Egyptian Pharaohs or kings living today, with many more temples and using slaves to build their new style pyramids. Most of the world would continue to be doomed under a form of slavery that demanded that every country pay tribute to Susa (Persia’s seat).
Under such a serious repression, perhaps the car, plane, computer, or even atomic power may not have been invented because of the freedom of thought which was promoted by the Greeks would not have existed. Find out what had caused the West to live the way that they do and why a WORLD CONSOLIDATION by a modern Persia or any other country is a BIG MISTAKE. Herodotus's writings is a beacon from the past; he was one of the earliest promoters of education, news, truth, communications, and changes for the better. He wished to help the fragile new Athenian Democracy find its feet using the ‘word’. Here is his story which includes a useful index on the last page.
