Map Persian Empire in time of Ezra, Nehemiah

Map Persian Empire in time of Ezra, Nehemiah, with Persian Empire Provinces. Persian kings at the time reigned over provinces like Judah, from Libya and Egypt in the west to the border of India in the distant east. The empire stretched 2,800 miles (4,500 km) from the Indus Valley on India’s border in the distant east, to Egypt, Libya, and Ethiopia’s border in the southwest. That’s about Bangor, Maine to Los Angeles.
