Satrap originally referred to provincial governors in the ancient Persian Empire. These officials were appointed by the king and were responsible for governing specific regions of the empire. The term has also been used more broadly to refer to any subordinate ruler or local governor who exercises authority on behalf of a higher power, especially in a decentralized or hierarchical political system. In contemporary usage, it might be applied metaphorically to describe someone who exercises authority over a specific domain or territory within a larger organization or structure.
The Persian Empire, like the former German Empire and the vast realm under Napoleonās rule, was an empire in the modern sense of the word. It consisted of various countries which, although dependent upon the Persian monarchy, retained their own individuality, customs, and laws. The general laws that were enacted, while binding upon all, did not harm ethnic particularities; rather, they even supported them, so that each of the peoples composing the empire maintained its own political system. Just as light shines upon everything and fills each thing with life in its own way, the Persian Empire embraced many peoples and left each free in its distinctive character and way of life. Some of these peoples even continued to follow their own kings and preserved their own languages, attire, manner of living, and customs.

The Persian Empire contained all three geographical elements that we previously distinguished from one another. First, the mountainous regions of Persia and Media; second, the valleys of the Tigris and Euphrates, whose inhabitants had been united under the influence of an advanced civilization, as well as Egyptāthe valley of the Nileāwhich had nurtured industry, agriculture, and various branches of knowledge. Finally, the third element of the Persian Empire consisted of the peoples who ventured foremost into the dangers of the seas: the Syrians, the Phoenicians, and the inhabitants of the Greek colonies and the Greek coastal provinces of Asia Minor. Thus Persia united within itself these three natural principles, whereas China and India remained largely detached from the sea.
In Persia there was neither the rigid and uniform totality that I observed in China, nor the disorder produced by desire throughout Hindu life. Here, although the government gathered all peoples together within a centralized unity, it nevertheless left each to itself. In this way, the savagery and cruelties that had characterized the conflicts of peoples with one anotherāof which the books of the Prophets and the Book of Samuel in the Torah bear witnessācame to an end. The complaints and curses of the Jewish prophets regarding the conditions that prevailed before Cyrus conquered Babylon testify to the misery, corruption, and confusion of their circumstances, as well as to the prosperity that Cyrus bestowed upon the whole of Western Asia.
