because it was so far away
I think that the Persians didn't attack Italy because to get to Italy they would have to travel right past Greece, which they were never able to defeat.
I think the Persians didn't attack Italy because they knew Italy had a strong military so they probably wanted to conquer all of the other civilizations first so they would have a super-army to attack Italy.
I think the Persians didn't attack Italy, because they didn't want to risk Italy getting aid fromt the Greeks, because they could never defeat them.
I think that Persians didnt attack Italy because the army was very strong in Italy and also its too far away.
cauase they diddnt feel like it
maybe they did feel like it you never know
I think the Persians didn't attack Italy because I think they knew that Italy was superior to them. They knew that if they couldn't conguer Greece, Italy would be a tough bet, since Italy had developed such a powerful reputation. The Persians may also have been trying to recover from their previous loss to the Greeks.
I don't think the Persians wanted to attack Rome because at first it was very small and not worth conquering. When it grew to a favorable size, the Roman army was not at all weak, and the fighting would be brutal with persians having no victory. Plu, Greece is a god wall of protection.

Italy had a strong military and the persians lost to the greeks. if they couldn't defeat the greeks, they probably thought that they couldn't beat them.
