I have received many comments noting that Nadr Shah was an ethnic Turk, rather than Persian. The reason that I refer to him as Persia’s Napoleon is because that was the empire over which he ruled. It was a multi-ethnic empire. I in no way intended to belittle his heritage.
Sie müssen wissen das, er war nach dem Safavide Empire und Safavide waren keine Persische, sonst Türkische (Azerbaijan) Empire. Man kann nicht es persian empire nennen. Danke
Ding Shens hahaha! Is this what they tell you in the Alyev educational system??! Russia defeated Iran, and forcibly took the northern parts of Azerbaijan, and the Persians (I mean the Azeri Qajar dynasty) had no choice but to give the land. but today after 200 years, Alyev is trying to hide that Azerbaijan has a Persian (and by Persian I mean Iranic) culture.
Elsen Avshar-> If you mean by "they were not persians" as "they were not Iranians" you are wrong in three aspects! 1. Safavid founders were half kurdish (Beside azeri/azari itself is not a turkish name and infact it is a persian name), 2. Safavid culture were based on Sufism (the name safavi means those who are sufi)! and Sufism is rooted in pre-islamic Persia/Iran (Zoroaster, and Mani) gnosticism culture, 3. Iran from her blooming was multi-cultural multi-linguistic country. This is what it makes a country instead of ruling of an ethnic over others. This interesting idea i think was unique when it was proposed (philosophically by zoroaster and politically by Cyrus the great) and to the best of my knowledge no other culture/country proposed that idea before Iranians/persians. Maybe because of this idea that Iranians think that they inherited the fist country of the world and not just a collection of city-state based civilization (as is the case of many other ancient civilizations)

Afshars are a Turkish state. If you still say Persian, then the great Turkish religion of the Afşar tribe of the Oghuzes believed in the sky tengri. I have a question for you, did the Iranians believe in Göktengri?
Let's all thank The History Guy. He gave a conscious and factual portrait of one of history's world leaders. It is true he was a great General, a Nation builder, an economist and did several other things exceptionally. The History Guy did an exceptional presentation in the allotted time and format. This is an exceptional snipit of history, about an important area of the world and our past as mankind This is not a biography so if there are points about the subject that were left out due to time or content space do not get mad because it's not left out it is just not relevant because this is a snipit of history and not a biography. Thank you again Mr. History Guy
After death his head was decapitated, his body rests on Mashhad and his head in Shiraz some 1000k away. In IRAN he is both loved and lothed, as he saved the country but could not cement that gain. May the Lord have mercy on his soul.
Another great segment from the History Guy. The do not cover it in all of the schools and when they do it is not stressed enough that the oldest civilizations come from this area of the world and they do not always give their great leaders and tacticians the respect they are due. Thank you again History Guy.
Kudos to Sumeria for cultivating wheat some 18,000 years ago. Possibly giving birth to 'civilization' and evolving humans from pure hunter/gatherers to that next level. The ancient world was indeed in that area of the globe and if it were not for the many compounding problems that Ramses III faced some 3200 years ago, it could still very well be the center of civilization. The first historically documented 'dark age' sadly began around that period of time (1177/1186'ish BCE - sea people/famine/earthquakes/drought/internal and external strife and likely also disease (though there is no proof of the latter). It was a globalized trading community among many nations before all but Egypt would lose the art of writing and many other skills and have to arise again during the 'neo' periods of those geographies.
Nader is one of the greatest millitary commanders in world history altough he is very underrated in comparison to napoleon or timur despite his great achivments in expeling the foreign invaders and reviving the old persian empire and in my opinion he is the greatest persian ruler after the arab conqust of iran 👑💙
Nader Shah's coins are clearly proof that He called him self an Iranian and Persian, and all of historians of the world believe that he was an Iranian Shahanshah (King of Kings).
He was indeed an Iranian Shah of Turkic origin! Most of the existence of greater Iran, it was ruled almost always by Turkic tribes and populated almost 50% by Turks
@@StreetDrilla Of those you mentioned, Safavids was a Turkic dynasty. In fact, all the empires that ruled over modern day Western Asia and Iran since and including Seljuks were of Turkic origin. Seljukcs kicked off the mass Turkic migration from Central and East Asia to West Asia (modern day Azerbaijan and Turkiye). That is why up until 1925 Iran was ruled by Turks
@@gurbanabbasov Safavids were Paternally Iranian Kurdish. They were an Iranian Empire by Religious, Cultural and Scientific standards. Islam forbids falsifying paternal lineages, Asian/Middle-Eastern culture denotes paternally, and by Y-DNA only from males.
I enjoyed reading the comments on this discussion thread. It is nice to get the points of view from Iranian and other people from that area of the world. I was especially pleased by a comment that this guy was one person's hero and that multiple books about the great leader that were written in Arabic are being translated into English. I look forward to reading them and hope he translates them word for word exactly as the authors wrote them. Sometimes translaters change or add words to make a translated sentence sound better and make sense or be less confusing. I hope that does not happen too much because you can loose or miss the original authors point of view or point he is trying to make.
Iranians are not usually defined by thier genetics, but by the culture and language they speak. He may be from a turkish family, but he was Iranian through and through and fought for the nation and idea of Iran.
Frank White I don’t care what language he spoke! He even celebrated Nowruz and I highly doubt he care much for Islam. You Turks always want to Turkify my nation of Iran. He was the savior of Iran and he was going to create a navy for Iran.
@Frank White it's funny that you falsley accused me that I'm a shi'a and wikipedia is not a reliable source. nadir shah was and always be known as an iranian king, not turkish king. HE WAS THE KING OF IRAN!!! go look at the flag he used.
@Frank White these damn mullahs that have been in my country are not iranians. i don't even like the safavid dynasty. and i already stated that nadir shah saved Iran from destruction. nadir shah, xerxes, shapour, cyrus, reza shah and darius are in my eyes the greatest kings that came out of Iran.
my mother's side of the family are afsharid and they migrated to anatolia after the fall of the dynasty and the civil war broke loose. my ancestor poyraz started his own clan and were forced to settle down from a nomadic life style by the ottomans to kayseria, and become sunni muslims.i have a relative who looks exactly like nader shah in there portraits.
Physicist-1944 me too. My ancestors migrated from iran to anatolia after the fall of the afsar dynasty. Bizimkiler önce kayseriye sonra aksaraya göc etmisler
In fact, Turkic-speaking peoples have played a major role in Iranian history, ruling the country from the eleventh century up to the early twentieth. Even today they represent more than a quarter of Iran's population. Foltz, R. (2016) Iran in world history. Oxford etc.: Oxford University Press. p.61
Turks, Persians, Kurds, Lurs, Balooch, Azeri, and others are ethnic groups referring to people that lived in different provinces of Iran (known to the West as Persia).
Iran is a nation state & Iranian refers to a nationality. You can be Chinese but acquire Iranian citizenship & therefore be Iranian. So the original poster was right, Turks, Persians, Kurds, Lurs, Balooch, Azeri & others, all long as they're living in Iran are all Iranian. Just like Turkmen that live in Russia can still be Russian in terms of nationality but not Russian in terms of race & ethnicity.

@@Мустафаиракский-я8ш Iran is an administrative country and its well known fact since the founding of first confederations going back to old testament biblical times and not like some other nations which are strongly based around the idea of race and ethnicity.

@Ottoman Nationalist bro you are idiot , for goodness sake read some books , turks are diffrent , some turks considerd themselves as iranian persian-turkish mixed , some are ottomans only turkish ,
nlpjohn You both need to read some history, the sixth army was not defeated in Stalingrad until January of 1943. In 1941 the Soviet army was still in full retreat and disarray.
@nlpjohn seems you cannot even read your own comments, you state that the Soviets defeated the German army at Stalingrad in 1941, nice try to sound smart and totally do the opposite, maybe you should go back to basic english books and leave the history to people with the ability to read even their own words.
nlpjohn if you start with dates you end with dates. Since you only mention 1941 anyone reading your poorly written paragraph would rightfully assume you were still talking about 1941 since you don’t even bother to mention that the German army was defeated in 1943 at Stalingrad. Not knowing the exact date of the return of the remains is no excuse since you clearly state that the remains were interned one month before the defeat meaning a rough date around the end of December 1942 and beginning January 1943. So how you should have ended was “Stalin ordered the remains reinterred, bringing an end to the curse and leading a month later to the surrender of the German Sixth army at Stalingrad on January 31st 1943” see how neat and tidy that would have been.
@nlpjohn I also assumed you meant the remains were returned quickly and thus the "one month" was only a few months after the first date you mentioned. It is a logical inference. After all, you say "not wanting to take any chances", implying Stalin was worried about the curse and returned them. If he was truly worried why would he wait more than a year?
This video brought back memories for me. I remember learning about him in history class while living in Iran Pre revolution. Thank you for the memories.

One Punjabi contemporary poet described the rule of Nader as a time “when all of India trembled with horror”.[84] The Kashmirian historian Lateef described him as follows: “Nader Shah, the horror of Asia, the pride and savior of his country, the restorer of her freedom and conqueror of India, who, having a simple origin, rose to such greatness that monarchs rarely have from birth”.[85] Joseph Stalin used to read about Nader Shah and admired him, calling him, along with Ivan the Terrible, a teacher. In Europe, Nader Shah was compared to Alexander the Great. Starting from a young age, Napoleon Bonaparte also used to read about and admire Nader Shah. Napoleon considered himself new Nader, and he himself was later called European Nader Shah.[86]
So. As a descendant of Nader Shah(I am not lying since my last name is Naderi and the family of Naderi comes from Nader Shah. Don't believe me? Ask the tour guide of the Nader shah museum in Mashhad. ) However, I've been dying to find out about the early ancestor of mine since I was told many stories about him, but this summary helped me a lot to find out even more!
Your grandfather was conqueror of world .. Mongol of Delhi & ottoman of Istanbul .. Weep & cried in battels against him . Allah give blessings & Jannah to great conquer of world
Maybe, but not all Naderis are descendants of Nader Shah. Anyone can change their last name to Naderi. The only way to to know your ancestors is to look at the genealogy of your family, which most Iranians don't have except nobles.

I'm sorry they know the truth that he was Iranian. This is because they use world-renowned sources, not books that have been distorted by Brandashifer and Ali Yuf's government.
Ond Int the Safavid dynasty was Iranian Empire of Kurdish Iranic origin there ancestry Firuz-Shah Zarrin-Kolah , Sadr al-Dīn Mūsā and Safi-ad-din Ardabili they all are Shah Ismail ancestors who are all Kurdish origin there flag lion and sun flag which was Iranian flag with more 3000 years history was 100 percent Iranian Empire the name of the Safavid kings use to be finish by Persia like Abbas I of Persia also know Shah Abbas The Great who killed many Turkic people in Iran the dynasty if you don't know history don't open your mouth
Suren Kalantarian fuck the Turks the most important peoples of Ottoman were European origin like Ibrahim Pasha who won the Battle of Mohacs for that fool Suleiman or the famous Hayreddin Barbarossa was also European origin I think he was Albanian and Greek military, Grand Viziers even the sultans were European blood like Murad IV mother was Greek and is grand mother was Greek so he Greek not Turk the Turks small brain to make Empire that big
Ond Int did you open your mouth again the Safavid dynasty was not Turkified just because Shah Ismail did some poem in Azeri Shah Abbas The Great he's quoted saying "I'd rather kiss the soles of the lowliest Christian than the highest Turk" doesn't sound very Turkic the Ghaznavids Iranized Turkman so they were Iranic right you dumb fucker they were not even Azerbaijani in Shah Ismail army they were Turkmens tribes and Iranic tribes like Lurs , Kurdish and Talyshs the Viziers were all Persian origin and you know how much the Viziers are important in the Emprie 80,000 peoples got killed by Shah Ismail in Tabriz and the Turks in army got killed by Shah Abbas
Ond Int if the Safavid dynasty was not Iranian 1 historian was going to say they were not Iranian there is 1000 book about them read one Shah Ismail I of Persia of PERSIA bring back the name Iran again just like the time Sasanian Empire you know what that mean
Ond Int Hayreddin Barbarossa was not half Turkish he was full Greek or half Albanian half Greek Turgut Reis was full European origin he was also Greek and also Murad IV mother was Greek and is grand mother was also Greek one of the best ruler of the Ottoman LOL the Ottoman was big because of non Turkic people LOOOOL Turkic peoples didn't do shit
The thumbnail says it all. Dude, Nadir Shah wasn't even a Persian. He was Afshar from Khorasan. If u wanna make content about eastern history I suggest you make more research.

The History guy failed to mention his historic words when he met Mohammed Shah the Moghul Emperor after capturing him. Moghuls had this royal tradition to recite their family tree when meeting another monarch or Dignitary while introducing themselves. So the Moghul emperor goes I am Mohammad Shah son of...... Son of Ayrangzeb Alamgir son of Shahjehan son of..... And it goes on for a couple of minutes upto Zaheer ud Din Babar. Now Nadir Shah being the son of a shepherd not even knowing his grandpa's name goes " I am Nadir Shah ibn e shamshir ibn e shamshir ibn e shamshir (son of the SWORD son of the SWORD........) 😅 😅
Nadershah was Iranian and the word "shah" is also a word from ancient Persian and this nickname is for Iranian kings. He also fought with Turks several times, which shows that he was not interested in Turks.Also, he brought Iran back to its heyday, in addition, the lion and sun flag is a completely Iranian symbol, I don't know how some Turks associate the great Nader Shah with them.
@@DND480 You fool... 🤦🏻♂️I'm an Iranian Turk as well but even I know that he was the shah ( which means king in Persian) of Iran. You are so uneducated , you don't even know when some King is Turk or Persian doesn't mean the whole country belongs to just Turks or Persians

A man of ruthless ambition and immense energy, he was certainly one of the great captains of military history. A master strategist, he was immensely successful in raising armies. He was also both cynical and cruel, and his reign was marked by violence and bloodshed. Nonetheless, he had taken Persia from near collapse to dominant power in the region.
Thank you for the nice video. Unfortunately Iranian history is pretty much unknown in the world. I am very thankful that you introduced a part of it. Shah Ismael of Safavid dynasty and Agha Muhammad khan Qajar were also brilliant military tacticians of their times. I would suggest to make videos about them too. Especially because of their impacts on Iran and tge regional history
He started by killing a coworker then his boss... sounds like a real class act to me. Little wonder he became paranoid and was ultimately assassinated. What comes around goes around.
That is not true. He killed his uncle (coworker they say) because he was warned by others that the man is going to have him killed because of his fame in the tribe and take his men. so he killed his uncle first thats all
Don't know. That makes him admirable to me. He wants power and glory, and he has the will to seize it. That's the mark of a great leader. Only cowards and weakling adhere to morality in the pursuit of domination. Nader Shah is an awe inspiring figure, similar to Tamerlane in a lot of ways.
@Bully Maguire Iran is just a geographical definition, not an identity.The Khitan emperors called themselves the emperors of Turkestan, does this indicate that they were the Turkic empire, or was it the Mongol state ruling Turkistan?Of course it was only the Mongolian state that ruled Turkistan.for example, the British emperor called herself the ruler of India after conquering India.well they were indian state?WTF..The rulers of the Ottoman Turkish empire called themselves the kaiser of Rome.So was the Ottoman state a Roman state?Stop bullshit.
@Bully Maguire Even Afshar, the name of the Afsharid state, is the name of a Turkic ethnic group.in other words, she gave the Nader shah state the name Afshar, which means Turkic race.Although I see them as the Azerbaijani Turkish-Persian state, my discourse will change if you claim that they are only Iranian.
@Bully Maguire If you live in Iran you are Iranian, if you live in India you are Indian, if you live in Europe you are European.but this does not change the identity of the state you have established, it only changes the geography.for example the hungarian state is a european hungarian state.but the Magyar people are originally an asiatic people and not European.so this means that the magyar state is the Magyar state. european is just a geographical definition.You look like a troll who thinks that the IRANIC ethnic group and the states governing Iranian geography are the same.🤣🤣 During the period of Turkic, Mongolian, Arab, Armenian and Greek states that dominated Iran geography, they called Iran geography as Iran.because that was just a geographical definition.The Seluicid empire was a Greek state that ruled Iran, does that mean they are from Iran?You're just a history thief trying to steal someone else's history.Iran is the most occupied geography throughout history.stop telling us stories and stealing other people's states now. The reason why Iran is called Napoleon is that it dominates Iranian geography.The Göktürk emperors were called the Gray Wolves of Mongolia.Was it Mongolian state, mister trol?
@Bully Maguire Stalin was the ruler of a state named Russia.it is independent of origin.It is a Russian ethnic identity.The origin of the ruler is not important after the name of the state is Russia.just as it doesn't matter if the king of England is a German.because England is an ethnic identity name.If the name of the state is ethnic identity, the origin of the ruler is not considered. but the name of the Afshar state was AFSHAR, which means Turkic ethnic identity.Do you think it's the same thing?🤣🤣🤣

Oddly enough, there probably WERE treasures abandoned on the Kyber pass. Overloaded draft animals died of exhaustion on the trip. While a single overloaded donkeys worth of gold is probably not an inconsiderable amount of money there isn’t any indication that there’s some cave that’s hip deep in gold.

@Ottoman Nationalist Safavid empire considered themselves Iranian. Safavid kings were interested in the book "Shahnameh" which is an epic book about ancient kings of Iran and the name of Iran (land of Aryans) is in that book. Shahname or book of kings is an epic (peoms) written by great poet Ferdowsi in Persian langugae between 977 and 1010CE. I emphasize the the name of Iran is there. Moreover, the name of Iran was much older than even Shahname. It is related to Aryans and even Sassanid empire called our country Iran. There were some copies of Shahnameh left from Safavid period with paintings . Shah Abbas and other Safavid kings hate ottomans and they were always fighting with them. Ottomans were sunni while Safavid were Shia. Safavid, Seljuqs, Ghaznavids empire were Persianized Turks (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Persianization). They love Persian culture and literature. In particular, Safavid empire hate sunni ottomans Turks. We are proud of our culture and language.
@Ottoman Nationalist Ottoman Turks vs Afsharid Azaris Turks=Generation of Genghis Azaris=Generation of Rostam Farrokhzad [Acient Iran] +He was born in Iran
One point here, after the invasion of India by Nadir Shah it was the Maratha who would attack Northern india and conquer up to Punjab. It was the Marathas and not the EICo who actually filled the vaccuum you talk of. It was only after the Marathas were defeated in the battle of Panipat in 1761 and the weakening of the rule of the Peshwa that the East India Company actually started to take over. For a brief time, India was dominated by the Maratha Empire. Not directly ruled but under their sway nonetheless.
Some historians have described him as the Napoleon of Persia, Sword of Persia, or the Second Alexander, While Alexander inspired unswerving loyalty from his troops, Nadir kept his army together through fear. nader imitated Genghis Khan's prowess and cruelty, he was a wild Tatar that created a great empire that, at its greatest extent, briefly encompassed what is now Iran, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, the North Caucasus, North of India, Turkmenistan, Bahrain, and part of Iraq, Turkey, Afghanistan, Uzbekistan, Pakistan, UAE. This spectacular success was due, in great part, to his ability to use brute force to reach his goals. he resumed his life of crime. As Shah, he used every means at his disposal to extract the maximum possible revenues from his provinces by any means necessary, including the threat of torture and death. this empire and the Afsharid dynasty (a violent reign of 11 years and three months) he founded quickly disintegrated after he was assassinated in 1747. in 1739, Nader unleashed an unbridled massacre on the citizens of Delhi. Soldiers broke into homes, Thousands of women were raped and killed thousands of people. Jewellers and goldsmith's shops were plundered and many sets on fire. By the reckoning of historian, James Frazer, the total wealth plundered by Nader Shah including jewels, gold, the Peacock Throne, the giant diamond weighed over 191 metric carats called "Kohinoor"(Persian for Mountain of Light) and other provisions was reckoned at not less than 85,500,000 English pounds as valued in that year. At the age of 61, Nader became a victim of his own bloodthirstiness in 1747. He had recently become aware that his nephew was conspiring against him. Fearing that the Persian members of his army might choose to align themselves with his nephew, he decided to launch a preemptive massacre. When he assembled his forces on Quchan(city of North Khorasan Province, Iran). He secretly assembled some chiefs of the Uzbeks, Turkmans, and other Tatars factions of his army and, ordered them to kill all the Persians in their camp later that night, a Georgian slave in his tent overheard the plot and told one of the Persian officers. An officer called Salah Beg volunteered to assassinate Nader earlier in the night before this plan could be implemented. Salah Beg managed to wound him with a blow to the collarbone. Nader is said to have asked for mercy in exchange for forgiveness. "You have not shown any mercy, and therefore merit none," Salah Beg is said to have replied, before decapitating Nader.
khosrow m Turkic peoples were good slaves of Nader Shah in Central Asia and Nader Shah and is army buried them alive the Persian army crossed the Oxus and swept into action against Ilbâres Khan. After a short and bloody confrontation between the two armies, the Khwarazm army begins to collapse. Many times Ilbârs Khan rallied his army, but was defeated every time and finally forced to succumb. At this point and after eight-month campaigning, the Persian army had travelled 3,000 km, a logistical and strategic feat.[2] Ilbārs Khan, besieged in the city of Ḵānqāh, surrendered to Nāder Shah and was executed together with twenty or more of his amirs (according to some accounts, they were buried alive). The execution was ordered by Nāder Shah in revenge for the murder of the Juybāri shaikhs, upon the request of their heirs.[4]
@Koorosh lol,you brain is full of paniranist propaganda. In reality all your masters were from turkic origin. And they call you guys a tajiks)))). You just spreading propaganda without sourses? Where is your source?
@Koorosh The Indo-Iranic population contributed 10-20% to the DNA of modern Western Iranians, who are otherwise mostly descended from the ancient native farmers of the region, exhibiting around 70% genetic continuity since the Chalcolithic Age (4500 BC).
What did he call his empire ? Turkestan ? Nope!! he called it " The Guarded domain of Iran". Did he kill the non Turks? No he Killed a lot of Turks and defended Iranian and Iran Tirma.

He uses Perso-Arabic alphabet. Was his title Sultan? NO he called himself SHAH
Definitely Nader was one of the great ones , it is an exageration to compare him with Napolean simply beceause the Napoleon's enemies were far greater in any respect than those of Nader .

Nader Shah was born in the fortress of Dastgerd into the Qereqlu clan of the Afshars, a semi-nomadic Turkic Qizilbash pastoralist tribe settled in the northern valleys of Khorasan, a province in the northeast of the Iranian Empire.[23] His father, Emam Qoli, was a herdsman who may also have been a coatmaker.[24] His family lived a nomadic way of life. Nader was a long-waited son in his family. Nader's native language was Turkic, and although he later learned Persian, he always preferred to speak the first language. He learned to read and write as an adult [23]. As V. Minorsky points out, Nadir, like other Afshars, spoke the South Turkoman dialect of the Oghuz language, speaking in common language, the Turkic Azerbaijan. Hakob Papazyan also pointed out that Nadir Shah, being a Qizilbash, used the Azerbaijani language as his mother tongue [25]. A notable source is the "Narration" of the Armenian Catholicos Abraham Kretatsi, a contemporary and comrade-in-arms of Nader, which contains the direct speech of the latter in Armenian letters in Azerbaijani
One man's trash is another man's treasure. I am Iranian, and we generally look at him as a hero But I remember meeting an Indian guy in Canada. I was with a friend whose name was Nader. I noticed a slight twitch in the Indian's face as he heard the name. He explained later that Nader is known as a bloodthirsty savage in his country- no wonder, after his massacre in Delhi. Iranians feel the same about Genghis Khan after his massacres in Iran. I suppose he is a revered hero in Mongolia. But the funny thing is there are many Iranian boys/men named Genghis (Persified to Changiz) even today.
@@yaqubleis6311 He is known as the cruelest emperor in Indian History His invasion of South India was the largest land invasion of Indian History With 5 million men he invaded South India for a quick victory but after this Mughals got weakened and finally the Mughals got subjugated by the Marathas who were from South India Overall his conquests lead to deaths of millions
Nader shah Afshaar lived 50 years before Napoleon in did Napoleon copied at least two of Nader shah battles, the correct way of saying it, Napoleon was Fence NADER Shah.
After fully uniting Persia, Nader Shah Afshar decided to expand the country's borders and create an empire. He marches first to Afghanistan, then to India. He captures Delhi, captures Bukhara and Kharazm. Emir Timur last visited India, reached as far as Delhi, but was unable to capture India as a whole. But Nadir Shah conquered India, where he was paid 700 million rupees a year. There was also a stone called "Kuhi-nur" ("mountain of light"), which is considered to be the largest diamond in the world. Thus, according to the agreement, the right tributary of the Indus River, ie the western flank, joins the entire territory of the Afshar state. This is the first time that an Azerbaijani Turkic ruler has done this, that is, no Persian king has had direct access to the ocean before Nader Shah. It should be noted that Nader's conversations were in Azerbaijani, in the Chagatai-Eastern Turkic dialect. In a letter to the Ottoman sultan Murda I, Nader Shah said: "Either let's completely muslimize Russia together, or guarantee me that you will not attack the eastern borders." The Ottoman sultan does not guarantee this.
after his death one of his servants took his little son Tahmaseb Mirza to Austria where he became an officer and nobleman, that story is very fascinating either, Nader Shah was a great General not good at economy and his empire collapsed but won by KarimKhan Zand one of his chosen generals...
The first i want thank you that you made a video for Nadir Shah. Thank you for your efforts and I wish success in your other endeavors but please dont write wrong title.He was not persian.He was from the Afshar tribe, which is not a Persian, but a Turk.I am not allergic to Persian word and people. but there is a problem that although not all Persians and Turks are racists, but when all the great persons who left a mark in history are presented as Persians Those suffering from the disease of racism (some persian) are inspired by this and think that they are a little more superior and higher than others.
@@TheHistoryGuyChannel As a westren this might be new for you, but if you want to cover Iranian/Persian history get ready to meet alot of History Thieves, Turks, Kurds, Arabs and even Indians at times for some reason. Everyone tries to either Make up facts, Lie or completely hide some important facts and truths in history so they can steal our history for themselves. It's quite sad really, this level of bitterness and lies and filth and they think they're on the right side.

I have received many comments noting that Nadr Shah was an ethnic Turk, rather than Persian. The reason that I refer to him as Persia’s Napoleon is because that was the empire over which he ruled. It was a multi-ethnic empire. I in no way intended to belittle his heritage.
Sie müssen wissen das, er war nach dem Safavide Empire und Safavide waren keine Persische, sonst Türkische (Azerbaijan) Empire. Man kann nicht es persian empire nennen. Danke
Elsen Avshar es was ein turkmenisches Afsar Dynastie
Ding Shens
hahaha! Is this what they tell you in the Alyev educational system??! Russia defeated Iran, and forcibly took the northern parts of Azerbaijan, and the Persians (I mean the Azeri Qajar dynasty) had no choice but to give the land. but today after 200 years, Alyev is trying to hide that Azerbaijan has a Persian (and by Persian I mean Iranic) culture.
Elsen Avshar-> If you mean by "they were not persians" as "they were not Iranians" you are wrong in three aspects! 1. Safavid founders were half kurdish (Beside azeri/azari itself is not a turkish name and infact it is a persian name), 2. Safavid culture were based on Sufism (the name safavi means those who are sufi)! and Sufism is rooted in pre-islamic Persia/Iran (Zoroaster, and Mani) gnosticism culture, 3. Iran from her blooming was multi-cultural multi-linguistic country. This is what it makes a country instead of ruling of an ethnic over others. This interesting idea i think was unique when it was proposed (philosophically by zoroaster and politically by Cyrus the great) and to the best of my knowledge no other culture/country proposed that idea before Iranians/persians. Maybe because of this idea that Iranians think that they inherited the fist country of the world and not just a collection of city-state based civilization (as is the case of many other ancient civilizations)

Kudos to Sumeria for cultivating wheat some 18,000 years ago. Possibly giving birth to 'civilization' and evolving humans from pure hunter/gatherers to that next level. The ancient world was indeed in that area of the globe and if it were not for the many compounding problems that Ramses III faced some 3200 years ago, it could still very well be the center of civilization. The first historically documented 'dark age' sadly began around that period of time (1177/1186'ish BCE - sea people/famine/earthquakes/drought/internal and external strife and likely also disease (though there is no proof of the latter). It was a globalized trading community among many nations before all but Egypt would lose the art of writing and many other skills and have to arise again during the 'neo' periods of those geographies.
Nader Shah's origin story is so similar to that of Chinggis Khaan's it's actually quite scary.
Was gonna say the exact same thing.
Timur too
Why is it scary?
Life of the nomads
Ali Kuzyaka we are all nomads when you think about it. Even Iran, at the height of the Achaemenid dynasty, was nomadic.
Wow. From rags to beyond riches. Now Nader was one of the ultimate self made men
Self made man? Dude he was more than it! He was king of Persia not a rich man!
Nader is one of the greatest millitary commanders in world history altough he is very underrated in comparison to napoleon or timur despite his great achivments in expeling the foreign invaders and reviving the old persian empire and in my opinion he is the greatest persian ruler after the arab conqust of iran 👑💙
Nader Shah's coins are clearly proof that He called him self an Iranian and Persian, and all of historians of the world believe that he was an Iranian Shahanshah (King of Kings).
He was indeed an Iranian Shah of Turkic origin! Most of the existence of greater Iran, it was ruled almost always by Turkic tribes and populated almost 50% by Turks
@@gurbanabbasov can you explain how so? Safavids, Sassanians, Parthians and Scythians
@@StreetDrilla Of those you mentioned, Safavids was a Turkic dynasty. In fact, all the empires that ruled over modern day Western Asia and Iran since and including Seljuks were of Turkic origin. Seljukcs kicked off the mass Turkic migration from Central and East Asia to West Asia (modern day Azerbaijan and Turkiye). That is why up until 1925 Iran was ruled by Turks
@@StreetDrilla Anything prior to Seljuks were of locals who probably spoke some Indo-Aryan and some local Caucasian languages of sort.

It is nice to get the points of view from Iranian and other people from that area of the world.
I was especially pleased by a comment that this guy was one person's hero and that multiple books about the great leader that were written in Arabic are being translated into English. I look forward to reading them and hope he translates them word for word exactly as the authors wrote them.
Sometimes translaters change or add words to make a translated sentence sound better and make sense or be less confusing. I hope that does not happen too much because you can loose or miss the original authors point of view or point he is trying to make.

Frank White it was an Iranian dynasty! I’m Iranian myself and he was king of Persia, not king of Turks!
Frank White I don’t care what language he spoke! He even celebrated Nowruz and I highly doubt he care much for Islam. You Turks always want to Turkify my nation of Iran. He was the savior of Iran and he was going to create a navy for Iran.
@Frank White it's funny that you falsley accused me that I'm a shi'a and wikipedia is not a reliable source. nadir shah was and always be known as an iranian king, not turkish king. HE WAS THE KING OF IRAN!!! go look at the flag he used.

Turks are Central Asians
The Others are Iranians .

So the original poster was right, Turks, Persians, Kurds, Lurs, Balooch, Azeri & others, all long as they're living in Iran are all Iranian. Just like Turkmen that live in Russia can still be Russian in terms of nationality but not Russian in terms of race & ethnicity.

nlpjohn You both need to read some history, the sixth army was not defeated in Stalingrad until January of 1943. In 1941 the Soviet army was still in full retreat and disarray.
@nlpjohn seems you cannot even read your own comments, you state that the Soviets defeated the German army at Stalingrad in 1941, nice try to sound smart and totally do the opposite, maybe you should go back to basic english books and leave the history to people with the ability to read even their own words.
nlpjohn if you start with dates you end with dates. Since you only mention 1941 anyone reading your poorly written paragraph would rightfully assume you were still talking about 1941 since you don’t even bother to mention that the German army was defeated in 1943 at Stalingrad. Not knowing the exact date of the return of the remains is no excuse since you clearly state that the remains were interned one month before the defeat meaning a rough date around the end of December 1942 and beginning January 1943. So how you should have ended was “Stalin ordered the remains reinterred, bringing an end to the curse and leading a month later to the surrender of the German Sixth army at Stalingrad on January 31st 1943” see how neat and tidy that would have been.
@nlpjohn I also assumed you meant the remains were returned quickly and thus the "one month" was only a few months after the first date you mentioned. It is a logical inference. After all, you say "not wanting to take any chances", implying Stalin was worried about the curse and returned them. If he was truly worried why would he wait more than a year?
This video brought back memories for me. I remember learning about him in history class while living in Iran Pre revolution. Thank you for the memories.

Middle East history is a weak point of mine. Thank you for the video and filling in of major gaps for me.
It is a very broad region with a lot of fascinating history.
One Punjabi contemporary poet described the rule of Nader as a time “when all of India trembled with horror”.[84] The Kashmirian historian Lateef described him as follows: “Nader Shah, the horror of Asia, the pride and savior of his country, the restorer of her freedom and conqueror of India, who, having a simple origin, rose to such greatness that monarchs rarely have from birth”.[85] Joseph Stalin used to read about Nader Shah and admired him, calling him, along with Ivan the Terrible, a teacher. In Europe, Nader Shah was compared to Alexander the Great. Starting from a young age, Napoleon Bonaparte also used to read about and admire Nader Shah. Napoleon considered himself new Nader, and he himself was later called European Nader Shah.[86]
So that's why nadir was killed by an indian?

32 cannon captured
(Safavid Persia)-losses are negligible

Suren Kalantarian fuck the Turks the most important peoples of Ottoman were European origin like Ibrahim Pasha who won the Battle of Mohacs for that fool Suleiman or the famous Hayreddin Barbarossa was also European origin I think he was Albanian and Greek military, Grand Viziers even the sultans were European blood like Murad IV mother was Greek and is grand mother was Greek so he Greek not Turk the Turks small brain to make Empire that big
Ond Int did you open your mouth again the Safavid dynasty was not Turkified just because Shah Ismail did some poem in Azeri Shah Abbas The Great he's quoted saying "I'd rather kiss the soles of the lowliest Christian than the highest Turk" doesn't sound very Turkic the Ghaznavids Iranized Turkman so they were Iranic right you dumb fucker they were not even Azerbaijani in Shah Ismail army they were Turkmens tribes and Iranic tribes like Lurs , Kurdish and Talyshs the Viziers were all Persian origin and you know how much the Viziers are important in the Emprie 80,000 peoples got killed by Shah Ismail in Tabriz and the Turks in army got killed by Shah Abbas
Ond Int if the Safavid dynasty was not Iranian 1 historian was going to say they were not Iranian there is 1000 book about them read one Shah Ismail I of Persia of PERSIA bring back the name Iran again just like the time Sasanian Empire you know what that mean
Ond Int Hayreddin Barbarossa was not half Turkish he was full Greek or half Albanian half Greek Turgut Reis was full European origin he was also Greek and also Murad IV mother was Greek and is grand mother was also Greek one of the best ruler of the Ottoman LOL the Ottoman was big because of non Turkic people LOOOOL Turkic peoples didn't do shit

He started by killing a coworker then his boss... sounds like a real class act to me. Little wonder he became paranoid and was ultimately assassinated. What comes around goes around.
Stalin was a great admirer of Nadir's 'politics' - poison, torture, terror
That is not true.
He killed his uncle (coworker they say) because he was warned by others that the man is going to have him killed because of his fame in the tribe and take his men.
so he killed his uncle first thats all
Don't know. That makes him admirable to me. He wants power and glory, and he has the will to seize it. That's the mark of a great leader. Only cowards and weakling adhere to morality in the pursuit of domination. Nader Shah is an awe inspiring figure, similar to Tamerlane in a lot of ways.
Nader Shah is the one who named her race on behalf of the state he founded.Afshar is a Turkic ethnic group.
@Bully Maguire
Turkmens were never Persians.they were just Turks who conquered Iran, that's all.
@Bully Maguire
Iran is just a geographical definition, not an identity.The Khitan emperors called themselves the emperors of Turkestan, does this indicate that they were the Turkic empire, or was it the Mongol state ruling Turkistan?Of course it was only the Mongolian state that ruled Turkistan.for example, the British emperor called herself the ruler of India after conquering India.well they were indian state?WTF..The rulers of the Ottoman Turkish empire called themselves the kaiser of Rome.So was the Ottoman state a Roman state?Stop bullshit.
@Bully Maguire
Even Afshar, the name of the Afsharid state, is the name of a Turkic ethnic group.in other words, she gave the Nader shah state the name Afshar, which means Turkic race.Although I see them as the Azerbaijani Turkish-Persian state, my discourse will change if you claim that they are only Iranian.
@Bully Maguire
If you live in Iran you are Iranian, if you live in India you are Indian, if you live in Europe you are European.but this does not change the identity of the state you have established, it only changes the geography.for example the hungarian state is a european hungarian state.but the Magyar people are originally an asiatic people and not European.so this means that the magyar state is the Magyar state. european is just a geographical definition.You look like a troll who thinks that the IRANIC ethnic group and the states governing Iranian geography are the same.🤣🤣
During the period of Turkic, Mongolian, Arab, Armenian and Greek states that dominated Iran geography, they called Iran geography as Iran.because that was just a geographical definition.The Seluicid empire was a Greek state that ruled Iran, does that mean they are from Iran?You're just a history thief trying to steal someone else's history.Iran is the most occupied geography throughout history.stop telling us stories and stealing other people's states now.
The reason why Iran is called Napoleon is that it dominates Iranian geography.The Göktürk emperors were called the Gray Wolves of Mongolia.Was it Mongolian state, mister trol?
@Bully Maguire
Stalin was the ruler of a state named Russia.it is independent of origin.It is a Russian ethnic identity.The origin of the ruler is not important after the name of the state is Russia.just as it doesn't matter if the king of England is a German.because England is an ethnic identity name.If the name of the state is ethnic identity, the origin of the ruler is not considered. but the name of the Afshar state was AFSHAR, which means Turkic ethnic identity.Do you think it's the same thing?🤣🤣🤣

Oddly enough, there probably WERE treasures abandoned on the Kyber pass. Overloaded draft animals died of exhaustion on the trip. While a single overloaded donkeys worth of gold is probably not an inconsiderable amount of money there isn’t any indication that there’s some cave that’s hip deep in gold.
Nader Shah is considered an Iranian Legendary Shah here, I have not met a single Iranian that dislikes him.
But he did have his flaws, such as the Massacare of Delhi and The Murder of his Son.

@Ottoman Nationalist Safavid empire considered themselves Iranian. Safavid kings were interested in the book "Shahnameh" which is an epic book about ancient kings of Iran and the name of Iran (land of Aryans) is in that book. Shahname or book of kings is an epic (peoms) written by great poet Ferdowsi in Persian langugae between 977 and 1010CE. I emphasize the the name of Iran is there. Moreover, the name of Iran was much older than even Shahname. It is related to Aryans and even Sassanid empire called our country Iran. There were some copies of Shahnameh left from Safavid period with paintings . Shah Abbas and other Safavid kings hate ottomans and they were always fighting with them. Ottomans were sunni while Safavid were Shia. Safavid, Seljuqs, Ghaznavids empire were Persianized Turks (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Persianization). They love Persian culture and literature. In particular, Safavid empire hate sunni ottomans Turks. We are proud of our culture and language.

Iran needs this type of man as a leader today. Khameini will never be like him.
One point here, after the invasion of India by Nadir Shah it was the Maratha who would attack Northern india and conquer up to Punjab. It was the Marathas and not the EICo who actually filled the vaccuum you talk of. It was only after the Marathas were defeated in the battle of Panipat in 1761 and the weakening of the rule of the Peshwa that the East India Company actually started to take over. For a brief time, India was dominated by the Maratha Empire. Not directly ruled but under their sway nonetheless.
Some historians have described him as the Napoleon of Persia, Sword of Persia, or the Second Alexander, While Alexander inspired unswerving loyalty from his troops, Nadir kept his army together through fear.
nader imitated Genghis Khan's prowess and cruelty, he was a wild Tatar that created a great empire that, at its greatest extent, briefly encompassed what is now Iran, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, the North Caucasus, North of India, Turkmenistan, Bahrain, and part of Iraq, Turkey, Afghanistan, Uzbekistan, Pakistan, UAE. This spectacular success was due, in great part, to his ability to use brute force to reach his goals.
he resumed his life of crime. As Shah, he used every means at his disposal to extract the maximum possible revenues from his provinces by any means necessary, including the threat of torture and death.
this empire and the Afsharid dynasty (a violent reign of 11 years and three months) he founded quickly disintegrated after he was assassinated in 1747.
in 1739, Nader unleashed an unbridled massacre on the citizens of Delhi. Soldiers broke into homes, Thousands of women were raped and killed thousands of people. Jewellers and goldsmith's shops were plundered and many sets on fire.
By the reckoning of historian, James Frazer, the total wealth plundered by Nader Shah including jewels, gold, the Peacock Throne, the giant diamond weighed over 191 metric carats called "Kohinoor"(Persian for Mountain of Light) and other provisions was reckoned at not less than 85,500,000 English pounds as valued in that year.
At the age of 61, Nader became a victim of his own bloodthirstiness in 1747. He had recently become aware that his nephew was conspiring against him. Fearing that the Persian members of his army might choose to align themselves with his nephew, he decided to launch a preemptive massacre.
When he assembled his forces on Quchan(city of North Khorasan Province, Iran). He secretly assembled some chiefs of the Uzbeks, Turkmans, and other Tatars factions of his army and, ordered them to kill all the Persians in their camp later that night, a Georgian slave in his tent overheard the plot and told one of the Persian officers.
An officer called Salah Beg volunteered to assassinate Nader earlier in the night before this plan could be implemented. Salah Beg managed to wound him with a blow to the collarbone. Nader is said to have asked for mercy in exchange for forgiveness. "You have not shown any mercy, and therefore merit none," Salah Beg is said to have replied, before decapitating Nader.
khosrow m Nader Shah was not Tatar what the hell are you saying
khosrow m is hero to Iranic peoples
khosrow m he created a Iranic Persian empire
khosrow m he never copy Genghis Khan that is BS there is no source for that
khosrow m Turkic peoples were good slaves of Nader Shah in Central Asia and Nader Shah and is army buried them alive the Persian army crossed the Oxus and swept into action against Ilbâres Khan. After a short and bloody confrontation between the two armies, the Khwarazm army begins to collapse. Many times Ilbârs Khan rallied his army, but was defeated every time and finally forced to succumb. At this point and after eight-month campaigning, the Persian army had travelled 3,000 km, a logistical and strategic feat.[2] Ilbārs Khan, besieged in the city of Ḵānqāh, surrendered to Nāder Shah and was executed together with twenty or more of his amirs (according to some accounts, they were buried alive). The execution was ordered by Nāder Shah in revenge for the murder of the Juybāri shaikhs, upon the request of their heirs.[4]

The Indo-Iranic population contributed 10-20% to the DNA of modern Western Iranians, who are otherwise mostly descended from the ancient native farmers of the region, exhibiting around 70% genetic continuity since the Chalcolithic Age (4500 BC).
What did he call his empire ? Turkestan ? Nope!! he called it " The Guarded domain of Iran". Did he kill the non Turks? No he Killed a lot of Turks and defended Iranian and Iran Tirma. Was his Army all Turkic ? No! His army was from all over the Iran specially his famous foot soldiers. His most powerfull commandar was a Lur who won the civil war. Did he wrote in Latin? No! He uses Perso-Arabic alphabet. Was his title Sultan? NO he called himself SHAH
Michael Axworthy’s book was an amazing read! I loved it when I was 12 lol
thankyou for NADER SHah up date
Definitely Nader was one of the great ones , it is an exageration to compare him with Napolean simply beceause the Napoleon's enemies were far greater in any respect than those of Nader . In fact Nader's humiliation of the indians open the eyes of the british to how weak the indians are and thus to british colonisation. Still Nader is a favoutie of mine and any book suggestions is much appreciated .

So their defeat doesn't really mean Indians are weak

Yes your point is valid but the idiotic policies of Aurangzeb led to their demise
Akbar the Great conquered North India with both love and war
He made several agreements with the local rajput leaders
Whereas the Aurangzeb's invasion of South India was quite bloody it was the largest war in Indian History
He sent 5 million people under his personal leadership to conquer South but eventually he used all the resources and wealth only on war that's why Mughals fell
But still their main ethnicity is Turkic although later they were more Indians than Turks
In short Mughals would had never fell had Aurangzeb used the skills and tactics of Akbar
Nader Shah was born in the fortress of Dastgerd into the Qereqlu clan of the Afshars, a semi-nomadic Turkic Qizilbash pastoralist tribe settled in the northern valleys of Khorasan, a province in the northeast of the Iranian Empire.[23] His father, Emam Qoli, was a herdsman who may also have been a coatmaker.[24] His family lived a nomadic way of life. Nader was a long-waited son in his family.
Nader's native language was Turkic, and although he later learned Persian, he always preferred to speak the first language. He learned to read and write as an adult [23]. As V. Minorsky points out, Nadir, like other Afshars, spoke the South Turkoman dialect of the Oghuz language, speaking in common language, the Turkic Azerbaijan. Hakob Papazyan also pointed out that Nadir Shah, being a Qizilbash, used the Azerbaijani language as his mother tongue [25]. A notable source is the "Narration" of the Armenian Catholicos Abraham Kretatsi, a contemporary and comrade-in-arms of Nader, which contains the direct speech of the latter in Armenian letters in Azerbaijani

One man's trash is another man's treasure. I am Iranian, and we generally look at him as a hero But I remember meeting an Indian guy in Canada. I was with a friend whose name was Nader. I noticed a slight twitch in the Indian's face as he heard the name. He explained later that Nader is known as a bloodthirsty savage in his country- no wonder, after his massacre in Delhi.
Iranians feel the same about Genghis Khan after his massacres in Iran. I suppose he is a revered hero in Mongolia. But the funny thing is there are many Iranian boys/men named Genghis (Persified to Changiz) even today.

After fully uniting Persia, Nader Shah Afshar decided to expand the country's borders and create an empire. He marches first to Afghanistan, then to India. He captures Delhi, captures Bukhara and Kharazm.
Emir Timur last visited India, reached as far as Delhi, but was unable to capture India as a whole. But Nadir Shah conquered India, where he was paid 700 million rupees a year. There was also a stone called "Kuhi-nur" ("mountain of light"), which is considered to be the largest diamond in the world.
Thus, according to the agreement, the right tributary of the Indus River, ie the western flank, joins the entire territory of the Afshar state. This is the first time that an Azerbaijani Turkic ruler has done this, that is, no Persian king has had direct access to the ocean before Nader Shah.
It should be noted that Nader's conversations were in Azerbaijani, in the Chagatai-Eastern Turkic dialect. In a letter to the Ottoman sultan Murda I, Nader Shah said: "Either let's completely muslimize Russia together, or guarantee me that you will not attack the eastern borders." The Ottoman sultan does not guarantee this.
I have always loved history - thanks to you that love is rekindled

The first i want thank you that you made a video for Nadir Shah. Thank you for your efforts and I wish success in your other endeavors but please dont write wrong title.He was not persian.He was from the Afshar tribe, which is not a Persian, but a Turk.I am not allergic to Persian word and people. but there is a problem that although not all Persians and Turks are racists, but when all the great persons who left a mark in history are presented as Persians Those suffering from the disease of racism (some persian) are inspired by this and think that they are a little more superior and higher than others.
He was, literally, the Shah of Persia.
