OET (OET-RV) It was when Dareyavesh (Darius, the son of Ahashverosh, a descendant of the Medes) was made king over the realm of the Chaldeans (perhaps better known by Westerners as Babylonians),
Chapters 7 and 8 were not in chronological order. They happened while Belshazzar was still the king. Chapter 9 now returns to the events of the reign of Darius who became king in chapter 6.
Note 1 topic: writing-background
This is background information about who Ahasuerus was. The UST places this in parentheses to make that clear.

9:1 Darius the Mede: See study note on 5:31.
• Ahasuerus is the Hebrew rendering of a Persian word taken into Greek as “Xerxes.” The father of Darius the Mede must have been a different Xerxes from the later Xerxes I, who reigned from 486 to 465 BC (see Esth 1:1); the time of this vision was 539 BC. It has been argued that the name Xerxes/Ahasuerus is an ancient throne name for Persian kings.

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
