Imagine what the Iranians would be without a certain unnameable religion governing their lives. :/ An interesting tidbit of the human migration is that the first of man to to really really really settle, thrive and live in Eastern Europe and the northern Germanic areas more than likely migrated from steppes of modern day Iran/Afghanistan to the northwest. Our dope ancestors from those area woulda been a helluva more advanced, than they once already were had the setback of al ha snack bar not happened. Before one starts getting upset, I’m not saying 100% from the area. I’m saying some of the first to the Germanic areas were from the areas of Iran/Afghanistan. This isn’t a theory, it’s not based on linguistics either, strictly based on DNA haplogroups which has shown that in-fact the nearest common ancestor most northern Europeans have in common, came from the aforementioned areas first. Hence the %s are minimal but date accurately to support the archeological evidence.

I’m 64 and originally from Iran but spent most of my life in the states… close to 50 years of it. I started traveling to Iran, learning about it, and its culture after my retirement a few years ago. I couldn’t disagree more with the findings and the title of this video. Iran’s unique geography is its greatest strength imho. There are major roads throughout its numerous mountain ranges to satisfy their commercial or military requirements while making the mainland easily defendable. I’ve traveled and spoken to people of various tribes in the south (even some Arabic speaking ones) as well as the Turks in the north and just about everything in between. They all patriotically associate themselves with Iran unlike what this video implies. That is in spite of people’s general dissatisfaction with the current government. Strait of Hurmuz is also a huge bargaining chip and deterrent for Iran’s potential enemies since it is totally controlled by Iran not to mention more than 200 hundred miles of additional southern shores outside of it. Iran might seek influence to its west (and east btw... as anyone would) but it has never tried to expand its borders (as this video suggests) judging by its history unless you go back 2000 years or more. Makes me wonder what this guy was smoking when he came up with all his conclusions!

[@yaqubebased1961]

This is a propaganda channel, like CaspianReport. They all have anti eastern agendas and the way they present their narratives in their videos paints false pictures to further their goals.

8:00 you are actually wrong. Xerxes the great (Achaemenid Empire) and his successors had the strongest navy of their time. During Parthian Empire and Sassanid Empire also, we don't know much about them, but we do know that they have actually reached Tanzania! Also during Pahlavi era, Iran's navy was the strongest in the middle east, had exclusive models built for it by USA and GB, and president Carter at one point said that Iran has certain Naval Destroyers that USA didn't have. Shah had a program to expand Iranian navy to the Indian Ocean, but the revolution happened and the program was terminated. Iran's Navy had battles with GB's navy, and won couple of them. Also it participated in the Oman's conflicts with the communists and helped Iman defeat them.

Why does everyone think that Iran's ethnic groups want to rise against Iran? Saddam thought the same thing when he attacked, but the reality is something else. Culturally, Iran has made all people consider themselves Iranians. In general, in Iran, Persian, Arab, Kurdish and Azeri and the rest only refer to the language and place of life. Everyone first considers themselves Iranian and then mentions the language and place of life. All previous empires are considered Iranian and they love it. It is enough to see Iran closely. In terms of nationality, it has a lot of integrity. Although it has its own problems, including the economy!
