    This took a monumental effort to make. Working all day from when I woke up until I went to sleep for days on end. Now I'm going to relax for a few minutes before embarking on the next hour and a half project. Don't forget to like, subscribe, share and all the other generic TH-cam things. Also go subscribe to History with Cy & follow me on Instagram for travel stories (related to history of course)

    As you educate yourself, you quickly realize the things you were taught in school is mostly propaganda for your home country. I particularly like how the Persians respected other cultures and beliefs.

    Persia seems to be massively underrated in historical terms. Thanks for the videos these are amazing

    I have always been fascinated by Cyrus the Great since childhood when I read a book about him and Astiagis, his grandfather. And now, when I have lots of Iranian friends I see how nice and most of all smart people they are. This comes from the great ancient history of the country. One of my students was from Iran, and she was the most hard-working student I've ever known.

    I'm from Rome and in all the Roman empire's maps of our books in school, you can see that we have never conquered the Parti's kingdom (Parthia) . They could resist and win against Romans themselves. As a Roman i have Persia in high regards.

    Most everything civilized about the modern world, appeared first in Persia, even furniture styles and design. There are classic styles of furniture attributed to Europe and Great Britain that are copies of classic Persian furniture design, refined and distinctive. The culture, style and art of Persia/Iran today still reflects the deep roots of modern culture. We owe a debt.

    This was the best non biased documentary about Persian history that I've ever seen. Well done.

    I remember feeling the obligation to watch documentaries like this back in school but now this is all I watch now that I'm outta school.

    Whenever we had history class and talking about Greece and Rome etc there was always this mention of "The mighty Persians" and one day I just asked my teacher "Hey why don't we learn anything about this?" Didn't really get an answer. If you don't know Persia you would think it's just a savage warrior civilization, but instead much of the Greek wisdom has its origins in the Persian courts, Heraclitus was not Greek as often believed but a Persian man. We westerners cannot continue to think that civilization started with Greece and Rome, Persia established freedom of religion, laws etc thousands of years before that, this is the world history we should all know!

    As a Persian, I am proud of myself and my ancestors. I love my language and our history. I want to say that we say Koorosh intead of Cyrus, Daryosh instead of Draius and much more different pronunciation for the names that you have used , but it was totally fascinating 😊❤

    Fun fact: The Japanese car manufacturer "MAZDA" has its name after Ahura Mazda the God of ancient Iranic religion Zoroasterianism.

    Thank you for covering parts of Persian history. Unfortunately both Persian history, literatures and ancient science is very underrated today. Hopefully by discussing more on this topic, we would be able to show the world, the great sides of Iran. Not political conflicts and wars. Love from Iran, somewhere on earth...
