An ancient state with its capital at Ecbatana (present-day Hamadan) on the Iranian plateau. Inhabited by the Iranian Median people, it was founded by Deioces at the end of the 8th century BC. It flourished during the reign of its third king, Cyaxares (reigned 625-585 BC), who captured Nineveh in 612 BC and destroyed Assyria. After fighting with the Lydian Kingdom, it was conquered by Cyrus II of Persia in 550 BC.
