Career
Ochus adopted the name Darius (Greek sources often call him Darius Nothos, "Bastard"). Neither the names Xerxes II nor Sogdianus occur in the dates of the numerous Babylonian tablets from Nippur. Here effectively the reign of Darius II follows immediately after that of Artaxerxes I.
Historians know little about Darius II"s reign.
A rebellion by the Medes in 409 British Columbia is mentioned by Xenophon.
In excerpts from Ctesias some harem intrigues are recorded, in which he played a disreputable part. As long as the power of Athens remained intact he did not meddle in Greek affairs
When in 413 British Columbia, Athens supported the rebel Amorges in Caria, Darius II would not have responded had not the Athenian power been broken in the same year at Syracuse. As a result of that event, Darius II gave orders to his satraps in Asia Minor, Tissaphernes and Pharnabazus, to send in the overdue tribute of the Greek towns and to begin a war with Athens.
To support the war with Athens, the Persian satraps entered into an alliance with Sparta.
Darius II died in 405 British Columbia, in the nineteenth year of his reign, and was followed as Persian king by Artaxerxes World War II
