This war was literally a fruitless and attrition war and had nothing but the destruction and weakening of the armies of both empires for both sides. The Iranians did not reach their goal, which was the complete conquest of Byzantium Even though Byzantium finally won in Nineveh, they did not reach their final goal of capturing Tisophon, and even the borders finally reached their pre-war status. This war was nothing but a blow to the durability of the empire and the prelude to the downfall of both sides, because maybe if this war had not started or had ended in the early years, the Arabs would never have been able to capture Iran and Rome, and on the contrary, Arabia would have been conquered by the Iranians and Romans.
Some people speculated the reason why the Rashidun Fully Conquered the Sassanid Empire was, aside from wanting to Spread Islam and Finally Defeat the Iranians that were pestering them, Was that IF the Sassanians actually DID Recover, they would infact INVADE The Rashidun and CONQUER Arabia. So the Rashidun Caliphate had no choice but to fully Conquer and Subjugate Iran. And no matter if you support the Sassanians or Rashidun, it was the Iranians that held onto many Arab Lands, like Yemen, and Eastern Coast bordering the Persian Gulf.
