Didn't the Persian Empire abide by the Rule of Law.
At least that is what I seem to remember when reading the Book of Daniel.
I believe Babylon abided by the rule of the king only.

Herodotus the Greek historian of the Persian Wars said of the Persians that they teach their sons three things.
To ride a horse.
To shoot a bow.
To tell the truth.
