Systemised Laws & Taxation
Before, only death was certain. Now, taxes will follow.Administrative and economic reform was difficult for the Shahanshah in the early days of the Sassanid empire, as the powerful noble dynasties, vying for personal power, created too much pressure to allow stable long-term reforms to take place. This allowed problems with taxation and the economy to become entrenched and stagnate. The revolt of Mazdak, however, shattered the socio-economic system of the country and entirely crushed the power of the nobility. Seizing the chance, the Shahanshah immediately put down the revolt and took control of Persia, now free of the noble's stranglehold. He implemented sweeping reforms, creating a system of administrative districts and laws, and systemised taxes and imposts in the way the house of Sassan had envisioned.
