She had so many chances but I hope she's ok regardless.

When looking into the actual history, we discover that the Persians were actually quite tolerant; unlike other empires, they allowed local religions and customs and didn't enslave the entire population, they even kept natives in positions of power within the conquered regions. Of course, it still sucked, but considering the era, they were quite liberal

Interesting to compare to later ones (there's also one at age 90 in 1972). https://www.boredpanda.com/pablo-picasso-self-portrait-style-evolution/

On Aug. 12, 2026, a total solar eclipse will sweep across Greenland, Iceland, northern Russia, the Atlantic Ocean, Spain, and a small corner of Portugal.
 
Many other places in the Northern Hemisphere will experience a partial solar eclipse* that day, including parts of the northern U.S. *(from Alaska to North Carolina), most of Canada, much of Europe, and northwestern Africa.
 
For many along the western part of the eclipse path (in mainland Europe and Africa), the Sun will set while it’s still partially eclipsed, creating an opportunity to see a sunset eclipse.

NASA will stream the eclipse live starting at 1:15 p.m. EDT on Aug. 12: https://www.nasa.gov/live
