This man was decapitated

Indeed, he did overthrow Astyages in a rebellion against the Medes, and his Edict of Restoration gave the (*) Jews permission to return to their homeland. This figure later conquered the Neo-Babylonian Empire and the Lydian Empire, and declared himself King of Babylon, Sumer, and Akkad.  For ten points, name this Zoroastrian king who is credited with the creation of the Persian Empire.
