The union of the Persians and Medes was primarily achieved through a combination of diplomacy, strategic marriages, and alliances rather than by force. The Persian king Cyrus the Great married a Median princess, which helped solidify the relationship between the two groups. Additionally, Cyrus employed a policy of tolerance towards the Medes and other conquered peoples, allowing them to retain their own customs and traditions. This approach ultimately led to a peaceful merger of the two cultures within the Persian Empire.
