Catie- Persia
The Greeks were not worth the Persian's time. One reason is that the Persian Empire was the largest yet. The Persians also had a very developed political system where the empire was divided into about 20 provinces that were each ruled by a satrap. The Persian Empire had access too a far greater amount of resources than the Greeks. Their geographic location gave them access to mineral recourses as well as wooded areas that gave them fuel and building materials. The Greeks needed to rely on importing resources because of their poor geographic location. The Persians also made great technological advancements such as underground irrigation channels. The Greeks were not worth the Persian's time because they simply didn't have any of the important resources that the Persian's had, a large empire, or an advanced political structure.
