The Egyptian revolt and the two Babylonian revolts occurred during periods of attempted Greek expansion and within a very short time frame of each other‚ they were also conducted in the first years of Xerxes reign. Xerxes wished to direct all attention to carry Darius’ legacy of Greek expansion by continuing invasions.
