    Iran's strategy throughout the years: respawn
  • @itsmekaarma
    I love how any country that became in touch with us got persianized
  • @ethernosii7738
    iran is litlerly suppost to be gone but survived ....wow looks like iran never dies
  • It's admirable how they managed to persianise their conquerors. I guess everyone wanted to be like them.
  • @anlergun6918
    I am Turkish and I love both Greek and Persian having been influenced by both.
  • 8:23 Sad side fact: this famine killed literally more than HALF of the population of Iran, before the famine, it was 19 million, after it, it was 9 million.
  • As an American i am absolutely fascinated with Iran: translated the land of the free(like America ironically). The finest silk rug weavers in the world come from the city of Qom. Brilliant artisans!
  • @nnez9009
    Iran is a place I would love to visit, I've heard nothing but good things about the people, the food, the culture, and the history.

  • @kasaxilader8488
    Iranian people have manners and morality to an extend a lot of westerners would never understand. I am living in Germany, Hamburg, around1,5 year now, in my work from the first days I had an Iranian guy, crazy lovely and wonderful person, his family too, people of logic and life. Love them, big respect.
  • @arezalgamer89
    Mad respect! This is the most accurate history I've ever seen about my country.
  • @ariab8382
    Just because the king's spoke Turkish doesn't mean millions of people living there were Turkish as well, the people were iranian
