The king of Persia founded the Zoroastrianism in Persia believing that the he ruled the reign because the God allowed him for the same.

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

king of Persia as the first king was King Cyrus. He was the one who was a monarch which led to the foundation of Persian kingdom with the free belief of religion. He never imposed the religion of Zoroastrianism to the people he ruled.

He has been conferred to be anointed by God to rule in the Bible and other scriptures. But he himself followed the law of Asha of Zoroastrianism which is being right and truthful.
