Persian Gulf or Arabian Gulf? Iran vs Arab States
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 18 พ.ค. 2024
- The waters between Iran and the Arabian peninsula are among the most important and valuable waterways in the world. And for decades now, Iran and the Arab Gulf States (mainly Saudi-Arabia, Qatar, Bahrain, United Arab Emirates) have struggled to obtain dominance in the region.
The dispute not only revolves around the material and strategic value of the waters, but also its name itself: Is it the Persian Gulf, or the Arabian Gulf? This question has become a heated discussion in the region, with many Arab states favouring the term ‘Arabian Gulf’ while Iran, and most of the rest of the world, consider the term ‘Persian Gulf’ as the correct one.
In this video, we take a look at this strange naming conflict, its history and origins, as well its contemporary political implications.

How do you make those maps?
The 1500s is _not_ when Iranic empires came to power, that happened in the 830s when the Buyids came to power followed by successive Iranic and Turkic dynasties thereafter up until WW1. There were several dozens of Muslim Iranic dynasties that ruled before 1500. Some dynasties that came to rule adjacent to the Gulf are the Saffarids (800s to 900s), the Banu Ilyas (900s), the Ghaznavids (900s to 1100s), the Ghurids (1200s), the Muzaffarids (1300s), the Injuids (1300s), etc.
The Abbasid Caliphate _de facto_ lost power in the 9th century and only existed on paper, losing power to Iranic dynasties in the east, and to Amazigh (Berber) dynasties in the west. The Turkic Tulunids ruled Egypt in the 800s, followed by the Turkic Ikhshidids in the 900s, followed by the Arab Fatimids, followed by the Iranic Ayyubids in 1100s. The Turkic Seljuks conquered West Asia in the 1000s, followed by successive Iranic and Turkic dynasties, all of which utilized Persian in some capacity.
Northwest Africa (Maghreb) was ruled by Amazigh dynasties from the late 800s to 1500s/1600s when Arabs came to power, then a century or two later the French began colonization, with Arabization and Francization occurring roughly the same time. A large part of the spread of Arab language/identity was because it was juxtapositioned against the French, and Amazigh ended up being swept to the side. The reason Arab language came to dominate the Levant, South Iraq and Egypt is because the capitals of the Umayyads (Damascus), Abbasids (Baghdad) and Fatimids (Cairo) were located there. Arabization has nothing to do with the Islamic conquests by the Rashidun Caliphate, which is why Iran and Khorasan remain Iranic speaking.
In summary: Arab rule largely ended in West Asia and Khorasan in the 800s before returning by the 1900s in Semitic West Asia; in Egypt the Arab rule reigned between the 600s to mid 800s, then late 900s to 1100s before returning in the 1900s; in the Maghreb the Arab rule reigned between the 700s to 800s before returning in the 1500s/1600s.
In some old European maps Arabian Gulf is written over what is now known as the Red Sea.
All the people who live in the east and west banks of the gulf r ARABS, so it is Arab gulf.

The historical name is the Persian Gulf. Any educated person who has been to school would tell you that it is called the Persian Gulf. It is even mentioned as the Persian Gulf in every single old map or documents!!!!!!
Iran is home to one of the world's oldest continuous major civilizations, with historical and urban settlements dating back to 7000 BC. Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel calls the Persians the "first Historical People". !!!!

@@wellytms4713 The name "Persian Gulf" has even been accepted by Arab historians, they have admit that the name of this place has always been Persian Gulf and there is no justification for the idea of Arabian gulf!!!👇🏻👇🏻
Abdel Khaleq al-Janabi, a Saudi Arabian historian, said "It's this name [Persian Gulf] that has been retained by history books and Arab historians, like Ibn Khaldoun and Ibn al Athir. It's also in treaties signed between the governors of the gulf and the British who dominated the region from the beginning of the 20th century ... From a scientific and historical point of view, it has been called the Persian Gulf since Alexander the Great". He said that it was "without foundation" to claim the Romans named it "Arabian Gulf". "Things didn't change until Nasser came to power and the rise of Arab nationalism. The Arabs then began to use the name 'Arabian Gulf'", he added.[33]
In an interview with Al Wasat, Bahraini writer Hussain al-Baharna said one of the reasons for the dispute over naming the "Arabian Gulf as the Persian Gulf" is that the Red Sea was referred to as at the time of negotiations over the ownership of Bahrain "Ann That Arabian Gulf", and it was not then possible to call what had since become the Arab Gulf region by the name "Arabian Gulf", it was called the "Persian Gulf" at that time.[34] In recent decades, prominent scholars and political and religious leaders, including Professor Abdelhadi Tazi, Ahmad al-Saraf, Abdelilah Benkirane (Prime Minister of Morocco from 2011 to 2017), Abdul Monem Saeed, Abdul Khaliq al-Janabi, Qaradawi, and Gen. Majdi Omar, Former First Deputy of the Egyptian National Defense Council have supported the use of "Persian Gulf" and believe there is a lack of justification for changing the name.
Persian Gulf. I might not be very happy about ancient Persians (notably the Sassanids) occupying Armenia (along with Rome quite often), but it’s just how it should be named. It was named by Persians, the UN has made their stance clear, and no name change is official yet.
All those who inhabit coast of this gulf are Arabs...there are no Persian people in this gulf ... why you want name this gulf for another people !!!
@@jth6587 It’s historically belonged to them, and again, is used by the United Nations. I’m guessing you’re likely an Arab, that’s alright, I’m just saying that it was originally conquered and held by Persian kingdoms and empires. And it still maintains a coast along the north.

being it was occupied by Persians, this does not give them the right to name it according to their race..Do you accept that I change the name of your country from Armenia to " land of the Arabs " ??
@@jth6587 No, cos it isn’t occupied by Arabs. And anyways Turkey and Azerbaijan are MUSLIMS. They literally named the gulf that way before Arabs ever had the chance… see it your way.

Not only historical but also politically, Iran has control over the security of this territory. Some part of the people's money is spent to secure this area. And mathematically, 2500 years of history is obviously way more than 70 years that this idea was ignited.

If you see American or British soldiers death place on ww2, you see it's Persian Gulf from thousand years ago you can read the The inscriptions of Cyrus the Great are mentioned in Persepolis, meaning that it has been called the Persian Gulf for more than 7,000 years., It's clear that literate people call it Persian Gulf and those who they are complex because they have always been in decline call arabian camel rider gulf but it's just in their dream in reality It has been and is and will be Persian Gulf nothing else

So basically according to this video, it was called the Persian Gulf for thousands of years then 100 years ago, some Arab states just decided they can rename it? Yeah sorry, it doesn’t work that way 😂
Not "they", only the Ottomans... that's not really enough of a counterweight to 2,000+ years of it being called something else. I dont even understand why this is a discussion. You cant just rename internationally recognized geographic features because you feel like it.
@علي الفردان They called it Persian because when writing was invented and arabs lived in the desert the Persians were building and empire and naming things.
@علي الفردان those levantine and Iraqi arabs you speak of are indigenous mesopotamians and syrians who have been arabized. also get out with the whole "fire worshipper" stereotype. zoroastrians do not worship fire, they use it for their rituals to venerate their god.
@علي الفردان these kingdoms were on the fringes of syria Iraq and palestine, not necessarily syria or iraq as you're implying here. my point is you're claiming something that is not yours. arabization did happen during the time of the caliphate. im not saying its bad, rather that you acknowledge that the iraqi heartland and syria WERE not originally arab.
@علي الفردان which same tribes exactly? you're taking offense where there is none : I've never said iraqis and syrians aren't arabs, rather im saying that the region syria and iraq has a rich non-arab past that you seem very intent to erase by claiming they've always been Arab.

Most TH-camrs, at least, seem to have no clue that there is no correlation between the "Arab League" and being Arab in either language or ethnicity. It annoys me when they use that AL map on videos and it hurts their credibility. Djibouti, Somalia and Comoros are in the AL despite hardly anyone there even speaking Arabic, whereas Chad isn't in the AL despite half the population there speaking Arabic. There are also over a million nomad Shuwa Arabs and Diffa Arabs in West Africa and Central Africa (excluding Chad). So no correlation.

Rest assured, Iranians will return to their ancient glory after the Islamic Republic.

But after the discovery of oil, they try to add an "َ Arabian " word before the name of each place.

@@notplayer5624 Today, most Arab countries are under our control or they are afraid of us like dogs. Now tell me which name is more appropriate? The country with the oldest history or the name of the locust-eating desert tribe?
@@nima.__.873 for ur information Arab countries are not under any country's control and your country is a joke poor people low income millions immigrants old and very old militaries using militia to make chaos nothing more, and for your question if u interested in history these tribes defeated your country with the oldest history before Islam in 'Dhi Qar' and after Islam Arabs wiped Persians too too too too many times so the appropriate name must be after the victors which are not the Persians...... your history ended before 1400 years by ARABS so who are you now ??
@@notplayer5624 lmao
@@notplayer5624 About 4,000 years ago, we ruled all of Asia while u were eating lizards in the desert.🤣🤣🤣
Even until 100 years ago, ur country was a desert🤣
If it weren't 4 the oil and USA balls, u would still b eating lizards🦎🦎🦎
As a Kuwait Arab Sunni Muslim, I don’t care if it was called the Arabian, the Persian or even the Chinese gulf , because it simply will not affect my quality of life nor my income. The government should focus on more important stuff like housing and welfare . 🇸🇦🇰🇼🇮🇷
That is true but whoever is named after is associated with it and they get the clout
Yes yes yes… Israeli Gulf has a nice ring to it don’t you think?
@@airwakkerre1861 you can’t compare Iran or KAS to a 70+ year old racist colonial occupation , you simply can’t , you are not getting the point , why is France not annoyed by the English who call the body water between them the English Chanel ? Because it’s not a big deal , they learned how to be good neighbors even though they had many wars in the past, more than we had with Iran
@@bornstar481 same thing, why aren’t the English and the French fighting over the English Channel ?
@@thequraininstitute6618 Yeah I made a joke but although I don’t know much about this conflict it sounds dumb as fuck and if your governments are actually wasting time and resources over this then I understand why the Middle East is the way it is
Real name: PERSIAN GULF
Fake name : Arabian gulf
