P.S#1: Please don't call Iran, Persia. If you call Iran, Persia, It's like call Whole UK, England. Persia refers to Persians, but there is a lot of other tribes beside Persians in Iran; like Azaris, Kurds, Lores, Balochis, Mazanis, gilaks,etc. in other hand Iran includes all tribes that were born, live, fight, build and die together for this land. P.S#2: Now I find out that our culture is too strong to die and I didn't know that.

>all tribes that were born, live, fight, build and die together for this land you got it right comrade, always too strong to die even under toughest famine or wars
You are right in pointing that out, but that works only from an Iranian perspective, not from a worldwide perspective. Your analogy does not work. Persia is simply an old term for Iran in English, see for example 'Persian rug'. This comes from the dictionary: Persia [pur-zhuh, -shuh] Former official name (until 1935) of Iran. They formally changed it into Iran, probably because as you say, it's more ethnically correct. An English speaker however, not knowing the history, hearing the world Persia would think of Iran. My point is, calling Iran Persia in English sounds old-fashioned but it does not exclude the tribes you mentioned. With your analogy, England would be incorrect too, because it comes from Angle Land, but the tribes who invaded the land were the Angles, the Saxons and Jutes. In fact some people still use the adjective Anglo Saxon. The term England predominated though. This is to say that sometimes the main 'tribe' gets the name of whole land. Seen from an English perspective and I think worldwide (as it's the same in French, Spanish and Italian) Persia was an old term for the whole Iran and that's it. There are a bunch of other countries that took their name from the main tribe. It can sound unfair to you, but do not worry because no English speaker would think of Persia as a smaller area, they would just think of Iran. On the other hand, very few people would think of England as Great Britain, because the name England never reached the meaning of 'UK'. I hope you understand the difference. Think of Spain, according to your logic it would be incorrect as there are Basques, Catalonians, Galicians and more, but still the whole country got the name from the main tribe. It's unfair, but it's just a name and it'll take time for people to eliminate the word Persia and call it only Iran. Like Myanmar is still called by some people Burma. It takes time. But don't worry, it's just an old term and it's not discriminatory as very few English speakers are aware that Persians were just a part of Iran.
Thanks for your kind words. Yea the invaders, after the dust of invasion settled, started to adopt the culture and politics. After some generations, they saw themselves as Iranians. Basically, this used to happen after accepting Nowruz (a nature-oriented new year), Humanistic and poetic-oriented messages of Zarathustra and Sufism, and a proto-secular and proto-humanistic Shahanshahi system. Respecting and accepting these three elements served Iran as a citizenship test for newcomers. And because these are not ideology-oriented, they happened to create a very efficient citizenship test for any healthy mind and heart. 🙂 Salute to Poland, too!
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.
Been to Iran and it's hospitality , people mind-blowing. One of the safest places on Earth . I hitchhiked from the South to North . Never met any bad person in my travels . To all westerners don't believe what is shown in the news just visit this lovely place .
Thanks for spreading love and telling tue truth, there is problems in my country like every country on the planet but its the politics that trying to destabilize my country ! But as this video said we are iranians and we will survive for ever !

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!
@@NemoTheAngryFish It actually translates to “the land of Aryans." Aryan is the adjective for Ar, and -an is the plural-maker suffix in the Persian language. Iran (Ar-an) literally means "Aryans." The full name was IranShar meaning the "land of Ars (Aryans)." In early and late middle Persian (Parthian and Sassanid Pahlavi), the word Ar meant "a person with a free soul" or a "freeman" for an easier word. So after this long description, "Iran" would mean "the land of free people." What this gentleman said was a correct English translation 🤭🎈
I'm actually really picky about history and often complain about people misrepresenting the Iranian history lol. But this was indeed THE Most Accurate video I've ever seen. Truly great job! Thank you 💚🤍❤️
Still had a lot of mistakes, for example, Darius was the nephew of Cyrus so he was meant to be the next ruler, and Elamite’s are Iranian just they aren’t Persian
I've been to Turkey twice and unlike the common belief that Turks are aggressive, they were incredibly nice and they had a great hospitality :)) (except for the scammers :'< but it's okay haha )
The Dad jokes are strong with this one! Thanks for the shotgun version of Iranian history, gives me a starting point to delve deeper into different time periods. Seems like every time the Iranian people get a taste of reform they hit the streets and protest, resulting in instability and confusion, allowing a new group of strong men to take power and impose even more severe rule. Who doesn't like a good revolution every now and then, but Patience is a virtue.
Persian history, civilization, culture, customs and traditions have been one of the richest and most beautiful empires of all time. The first kingdom of the world was Cyrus the Great. A prophet who embodied all the purity and goodness of his time. But he did not force or enslave any people. Liberation of the Jews. Reconciling nations. Due to the enmity and perhaps jealousy of European historians and unfortunately the destruction of history books due to the invasion of Alexander and then the Arab invasion and then the Mongol invasion, historical information about Iran is much less than information about Greece or Rome. The impact that the Iranians had on the evolution of human society, whether through inventions and discoveries and having the greatest scientists and physicians, is a great blessing to humanity. I hope that the services of Iranians to the world will be paid more and better. And know that the Islamic Republic is not the representative of the pure land of our ancestors.
Iran second oldest country to achieve ancient times India was first to achieve, indus valley civilization 3300bce Aryan kingdoms 1700bce Democratic republic kingdoms 1200bce - 600bce Nanda empire, guptha empire, mauya empire, chalukya empire and much more 600bce - 1300ce India had 50% of world wealth from 3300bce to 1ad and 40% from 1ad to 1500ad Mughals, Turks and British made India poor But Hinduism still surviving since 5000bce A formal number system that world uses today that influenced the west people to invented many things was discovered by Indian scientists bramhaguptha and aryabatta Indians used to trade through sea routes with Mesopotamians in 3000bce

Thank you for making this informative and optimistic video about my motherland--which is often so grossly misrepresented. I long for a modern director to make a film about ancient Iran--capturing the magic that I am sure it once was...
9:30 he wasn't trying to modernize/westernize Iran, he was trying to de-islamicize it and revive the real pre-islamic Iran, where women were rulers and had equal rights as men.
Curious cryptic cultures of clever craftsman creating… That’s poetry! I listened to that part several times in a row like I would with a clever line in a song I like. You’re a linguistic artist!
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.
Great video, one small issue, at 2:32, it was not Darius that declared himself the son of Cambyses, but, a bog, a priest called Bardia, also known as Smérdis or Bardia the liar, claimed to be the successor of Cambyses and his brother, unofficially claiming to be a son of Cyrus his self, but the problem was that according to some rumors back in the time, Cambyses had already killed his brother before marching through Egypt which has never been publicized. it was clear that there was something wrong but not many people noticed it. now everything started when this new self-proclaimed king, Bardia, married all Cambyses' wives - and to dispel doubt, I have to say that Bardia never went out of the Royal Court or even talk to any Persian and Median royalty - which caught the attention of a Persian nobility called Otanes / Hutan who had his daughter Fedima married to Cambyses and now, to Bardia, who wasn't allowed to get out of the court was contacted by a mediator and asked by the father that if he was the real son of Cyrus or not, and makes her responsible for gathering information from the court and guess what, he was not. so a council was made of a few royalties to discuss this matter, whom later Darius the Great, the son of Vishtasp, a satrap during both Cyrus and his successor Cambyses was a member of; and soon, rebelled against the lier king.
Worth noting in both world war famines (both times largely due to the Entente and Allies, especially Britain) millions died, that's how bad both were. Great vid though, just figured that tidbit would explain Iran a bit more.
Surprisingly accurate. A few corrections/additions though: - The pre-Iranic history of Iran is much more interesting than simply the Elamite. Look for example at The Jiroft Civilization, The Burnt City Civilization, The Kassites, etc. - Linguistic analysis of the Gathas suggests that Zoroaster was probably leaving around 1500-2000 BCE and not 1000 BCE. - Medes and Persians never were subjugated by Assyrians. Medes were defeated by them at some point but never subjugated. Later on a combined Median and Babylonian army laid a two years siege to Nineva and put an end to the New Assyrian Empire. - The Mongol emissary killed was not directly sent by Genghis Khan, but by a vassal state in Northern china that was related to Genghis Khan. - Safavids were Turkic people and although there were great promoters of Persian culture and language but they were of Turkic origin and initially even began promoting a Turkic unity with the Ottomans but later on changed their plans when they got into power. They were also the ones who established Shi'ism and created the first class of Shi'ite Mullahs so in a sense all of our current problems could be traced back to the Safavids. - Reza Pahlavi was not harsh by any standards of the political zeitgeist of the 70s and 80s. There were European countries at that time that were committing significantly more atrocious crimes than him. He was in fact quite weak and acquiescent and that was one of the reasons he eventually ended up handing the country to the revolutionaries. The current Islamic regime commits more crime in a span of a week than he committed in his whole 39 year reign. Just ask anyone from Iran, Iraq and Syria and they will tell you. All and all. This was a very accurate summary of Iranian history.
Indeed, *Iran is too strong to die:* all conquerors of Iran are later conquered and Iranianized by the Persian culture. In Farsi we say "Iran is a phoenix that rises from its ashes every time it seemingly dies"... Thanks for the video - such a great summery. Only one comment about the 1978-9 revolution: the revolts were a backwards and reactionary response (from a coalition of religious fanatics and communists) to the Shah's westernization of the country, and NOT "a protest against his government's corruption" like mentioned in the video - otherwise all accurate. Hopefully the Persian culture will soon expel these religious fanatics once and for all and will go back to a modern secular thriving nation like before, only known for its rich and colorful culture, arts, sciences, poetry, architecture, wine, and its immortality throughout all ages :)

Thadddd was awesome. You reviewed all my school history lessons in almost a ten min video.
Yeap. Same😄
love iran with great history
Thank you for making this informative and optimistic video about my motherland--which is often so grossly misrepresented. I long for a modern director to make a film about ancient Iran--capturing the magic that I am sure it once was...
Iran is the fatherland
شما کجا زندگی میکنی؟
❤
one of the best or should I say THE BEST EXPLAINATION OF IRAN HISTORY Good Job man
Thanks for making this video ❤️
You are the best bro , keep moving🔥 , much love from iran ❤️🇮🇷
Iran or Persia has a long history and culture and is a civilized country ...

Zende bad iran 🇮🇷🇮🇷🇮🇷
9:30 he wasn't trying to modernize/westernize Iran, he was trying to de-islamicize it and revive the real pre-islamic Iran, where women were rulers and had equal rights as men.
@@user-jd8ej5eg1vdoesn’t matter, he was Iranian FIRST and then Muslim. Iranians never built their identity on a single religion.
Very nicely done!!
Curious cryptic cultures of clever craftsman creating… That’s poetry! I listened to that part several times in a row like I would with a clever line in a song I like. You’re a linguistic artist!
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.
Helpful video, thanks for making
i binged watched a lot of your videos. i started playing geo guesser and now im super intrigued by this type of stuff, ty for the vids (:
Persian culture is strong to die 🙌🏽
Great video, thank you
Exceptionally well-done video.
Great video, one small issue, at 2:32, it was not Darius that declared himself the son of Cambyses, but, a bog, a priest called Bardia, also known as Smérdis or Bardia the liar, claimed to be the successor of Cambyses and his brother, unofficially claiming to be a son of Cyrus his self, but the problem was that according to some rumors back in the time, Cambyses had already killed his brother before marching through Egypt which has never been publicized. it was clear that there was something wrong but not many people noticed it. now everything started when this new self-proclaimed king, Bardia, married all Cambyses' wives - and to dispel doubt, I have to say that Bardia never went out of the Royal Court or even talk to any Persian and Median royalty - which caught the attention of a Persian nobility called Otanes / Hutan who had his daughter Fedima married to Cambyses and now, to Bardia, who wasn't allowed to get out of the court was contacted by a mediator and asked by the father that if he was the real son of Cyrus or not, and makes her responsible for gathering information from the court and guess what, he was not. so a council was made of a few royalties to discuss this matter, whom later Darius the Great, the son of Vishtasp, a satrap during both Cyrus and his successor Cambyses was a member of; and soon, rebelled against the lier king.

Once again “you won’t believe it” got me laughing so hard
Persian culture is elite it never dies…..
Intresting history 🇮🇷❤
Thank you, God.
This ancient history documentary has me convinced that ancient emperors would totally crush it on social media today
No matter what the situation was; no matter what is happening and what it'll be like... Iran always survives!
Best video i ever seen about my country's history love you bro❤❤❤💥💥✌✌
Worth noting in both world war famines (both times largely due to the Entente and Allies, especially Britain) millions died, that's how bad both were. Great vid though, just figured that tidbit would explain Iran a bit more.
Surprisingly accurate. A few corrections/additions though:
- The pre-Iranic history of Iran is much more interesting than simply the Elamite. Look for example at The Jiroft Civilization, The Burnt City Civilization, The Kassites, etc.
- Linguistic analysis of the Gathas suggests that Zoroaster was probably leaving around 1500-2000 BCE and not 1000 BCE.
- Medes and Persians never were subjugated by Assyrians. Medes were defeated by them at some point but never subjugated. Later on a combined Median and Babylonian army laid a two years siege to Nineva and put an end to the New Assyrian Empire.
- The Mongol emissary killed was not directly sent by Genghis Khan, but by a vassal state in Northern china that was related to Genghis Khan.
- Safavids were Turkic people and although there were great promoters of Persian culture and language but they were of Turkic origin and initially even began promoting a Turkic unity with the Ottomans but later on changed their plans when they got into power. They were also the ones who established Shi'ism and created the first class of Shi'ite Mullahs so in a sense all of our current problems could be traced back to the Safavids.
- Reza Pahlavi was not harsh by any standards of the political zeitgeist of the 70s and 80s. There were European countries at that time that were committing significantly more atrocious crimes than him. He was in fact quite weak and acquiescent and that was one of the reasons he eventually ended up handing the country to the revolutionaries. The current Islamic regime commits more crime in a span of a week than he committed in his whole 39 year reign. Just ask anyone from Iran, Iraq and Syria and they will tell you.
All and all. This was a very accurate summary of Iranian history.
Nice opening. A mix of economics explained and geography now.
Indeed, *Iran is too strong to die:* all conquerors of Iran are later conquered and Iranianized by the Persian culture. In Farsi we say "Iran is a phoenix that rises from its ashes every time it seemingly dies"... Thanks for the video - such a great summery. Only one comment about the 1978-9 revolution: the revolts were a backwards and reactionary response (from a coalition of religious fanatics and communists) to the Shah's westernization of the country, and NOT "a protest against his government's corruption" like mentioned in the video - otherwise all accurate. Hopefully the Persian culture will soon expel these religious fanatics once and for all and will go back to a modern secular thriving nation like before, only known for its rich and colorful culture, arts, sciences, poetry, architecture, wine, and its immortality throughout all ages :)
As an Iranian it was really perfect
You deserve more subs
beardi mc beard beard🤣🤣🤣I ve never laughed so hard hearing my country s history. and great job sir as accurate as it could be! your videos are brilliant👌🏻 keep up the good work👏🏻
Thanks for making a video about my country. I love you all from lran💙
Iranic history is best and most powerful history ever
Can't wait to see your History Of Iraq
Iraq is actually called Arak, meaning Little Iran, Iraq was the center of Sassanid and Achaemenid rule in Iran, The Iraqi people are also Iranians
@@morix1951 they are not Iranian (except kurds)
@@morix1951 Hahaha, are you an idiot? You should go through the date before opening your mouth and saying clumsiness Iraq is a thousand years older than Iran Iraq, Babylon, Sumer, and Assyria Iran has no place in Iraq.
As an Iranian you probably failed in history
@@tina_anonymous5289 what do you mean?
Good Video!
As an Iranian I have to say that you describe our history completely and very beautiful, thank you Mr.history
All I will remember from this video is that Iranian culture is too strong to die. ✊
one the most accurate videos i have seen about iran in youtube
Persia did conquer half of greece and ruled it for about 100 and more years
Iran Is Arab!
Very good analysis!
It is refreshing to see a program about Iran without the usual vilification and belittling Iran.
Brilliant presentation!!
so nice. strong people sure. is a hard land and sweet.....Im italian but i dream to visit. the rest of the big Iranian Impire
You're welcome to visit, I also dream of visiting Italy, it seems like one of the coolest places on the planet TBH.

It was Accurate and Beautifully made.
8:21 A famine which was caused by britain
As a iranian i appreciate you're attention to words if it was anyone else the would pronounce the kh as ke
The Reza shah was one of the greatest kind in iran history even now people respect him
Very beautiful. Short but accurate 👏👏👏👏👏👏
HELL YEAH!! Persian food is HELLA bomb!! I LOVE khoobideh & saffron rice. There are a lot of places to get Persian food where I live, in fact we are a bit spoiled there. Gaz Nougat is also AMAZING!!
you can't forget kotlet!
Salam. Beautiful explanation. Thank you
As a persian I’m proud of the way you said Khosrow
great video!
8:10 small error. Herat was not part of Afghanistan at the time. It was a Persian vassal that the Afghans seized with British support.
at 0:23 those alliterations were insane
Woohoo over 8,000 subscribers!!
