Great so what about the history of free speech itself (let's pretend that we're making an alternative to free speech heheheh)? At least our Yuan Dynasty EP gave us the ability to "hold vigils for our" own lowly existence in our own language, rather than all of our history only being in Arabic. The Cyrus alphabet is a fistful of construction site bullcrap and Tomiris was a reformer. Am I begging the universe to give us another Tomiris? NO, BECAUSE SHE ACTUALLY WASN'T A NOBODY AND ACTUALLY FINISHED DOING ONE THING. I'VE NEVER MET AN IRANIAN WHO BELIEVES THAT ANYTHING CAN BE FINISHED. As an Iranian, I apologize to all Turks for being "a savage", and demand that I be "saved" in a secular and Chinese way, rather than a Turkish way. Just because they describe us in a certain way while making fun of us (we Iranians) doesn't mean that we need to actually ritually observe those actions which they claim that we do because of our "savage" and mockable/jester-like behavior. Life is about getting the next generation to solve our generation's problems So, yeah, we had a bad phase where people made fun of us, and then they forced us to regularly observe rituals where we did denigrating things which they invented in their jokes. For example, South Asians were also mocked as "shit-eaters" and became required by law to practice the eating of shit from cows in order to make the humiliating comments truly "come full circle". Iranian "culture" is the same. I'm telling you honestly, as an Iranian. Look at my picture. This is seriously not a "joke account". I'm being extremely serious.

​@@the11382the succeeding Seleucids also had a mixed Greco-Persian government although it was more Greek than Persian. They intermarried a lot with Persian nobility. Also, this is a phenomenon that happens a lot with ancient, established civilisations. The invaders assimilate to gain more legitimacy among the locals and prestige. Same happened with the Roman Empire in the West with the Germanic tribes adopting Roman customs and language, ancient Greeks who were admired by the Romans. Eastern Romans with the Slavs and the Turks adopting Byzantine culture, architecture and administration. Egypt where every n billionth invader would assimilate or let them be until the Arabs. India where all Muslim invaders would assimilate and intermarry with Hindu nobility and, obviously, China.

We're Ajam because of Mongolia; and in their records, the only Iranians are nomadic. People do COME TO IRAN and import non-nomadic status quos, but they appear to not have been able to move the border between them and the nomads for thousands of years. The Iranians end up being the only ones on the land for some reason or another. Hope I've helped you. If you want to know the result of my scientific investigation into Persian culture, then it's fine that you don't know anything about Persian culture because we probably had a bad phase where people made fun of us, and then they forced us to regularly observe rituals where we did humiliating things which they invented in their jokes. For example, South Asians were also mocked as "shit-eaters" and became required by law to practice the eating of shit from cows in order to make the humiliating comments truly "come full circle" (and being forced to burn each other's wives to reduce the population).

Turkic dynasties were heavily influenced by Persian society for a reason. They relied on Persian culture, adopting its politics and administrative systems to sustain their civilizations.

The rulers of the empire had a reputation for being “lovers of Greek culture.” The Parthian emperors had a phrase written on their coins, which shows that they recognized, embraced and even politically promoted the diverse nature of their empire. The Emperor Phraates IV, who reigned from 38 to 2 BC, followed this general tendency. On his coins, the phrase was written: “Phraates IV, King of kings, lover of the Greeks.” The Persian Empire, which had been destroyed by Alexander the Great, would certainly not have minted coins with the words “lover of the Greeks.” share in power.

The Iranians know the true value of good bussy and think will never allow for post nut clarity to cloud their judgment like this, we know we'll horny again soon, and bussy will regain its intoxicating grip on us once more, we know there is no bussy like Armenian bussy, and such high quality top shelf bussy must be protected at all cost, and that if Allah did not want his slaves to sin with Armenian bussy then he shouldn't have made Armenian bussy so good. It is unfair to create such unfathomably good bussy and then command your subjects to refrain from enjoying it, it's in fact cruel. This is why we will protect Armenian bussy to the last man.

Funny story I read is when Qutayba ibn Muslim (a prominent military leader) revolted and died bc of miscommunication. He believed the new caliph would make Muslim’s enemy the governor of Khorasan, but the caliph was intending to reinstate Muslim as the governor. But they didn’t have email so Muslim didn’t get the news and revolted anyway.

As an Iranian living in Iran right now, Pahlavi Dynasty was a ray of sunshine in centuries of darkness. If we had gone from Qajar to Islamic dictatorship, we'd probably have the living standard of Bangladesh right now. The two reigning kings modernized the nation in less than half a century, bringing us from middle ages to modern ages. Even now, almost every university, railroad, hospital, military base and most of our industries are legacies of them. Also, Mohammad Reza Shah created OPEC and wanted to start trading with gold instead of USD. That's when US and their European allies prepared a 2nd coup and brought in the Mullahs.

Nadir idolised the legendary Central Asian conquerors Genghis Khan and Emir Timur and imitated their military prowess and especially later in his reign - their cruelty. Nadir's victories briefly made him the Middle East's most powerful sovereign, but his military spending had a ruinous effect on the economy. This last great Asian military conqueror built a huge empire-stretching from the Indus in what is now Pakistan to the Caucasus mountains in the north, to India in the east-but his reign was marked by remarkable cruelty.
