La Persia, marcata dal colore verde, era il paese dominante. La mappa illustra inoltre i confini fra le satrapie - le province in cui era diviso l'Impero - e il loro numero di identificazione, in base al sistema di Erodoto. Viene mostrato anche, in rosso, il nome persiano usato per paesi e città. Una sottolineatura verde indica le popolazioni che riconoscevano la dominanza persiana. Le terre per lo più abitate sono indicate in arancione, quelle quasi deserte in giallo chiaro. La mappa mostra anche le "Strade reali dell'Impero" e le strade carovaniere. La mappa è una delle tavole realizzate dall'Ufficio Cartografico del TCI per l'Enciclopedia Italiana Giovanni Treccani |
