Cyrus the Younger's quest for the crown of the Persian Empire, held by his brother, Artaxerxes II, culminated in the Battle of Cunaxa in 401 BC.
The battle ended with his own death. This study speculates whether Cyrus the Younger could have succeeded in supplanting his brother as King had he lived through this battle.
