    Alot of Parsis, whose name means “Persians,” are descended from Persian Zoroastrians who emigrated to India to avoid religious persecution by Muslims....
    Parsi community today is flourishing in India.... they are now the backbone of Indian big businesses!! highly creative and excellent businessmen!

      @@تاجیکپنجشیری don't use the word Persian ; use the word Iranian . Persians are only people in the center , south of Iran . from Persian tribes . going back 3000 years . the other tribes of the nation are Iranian . proudly Iranian . Afghanistan is an Iranian continent . only two dynasty of Iranian history and Iranian empires are from Persian dynasties . sustained and Achaemenid Empire . the others dynasties and empire are other Iranian tribes. Afghanistan is in Khorasan part of Iran. the Persian language that we speak actually coming directly from partisans that are Iranian Khorasan tribes which they created from Persian language and older avestayi languages .

      @user-ni5eg8iq4u what do you want to say?!!
      Majority of iran is persian about60%, and official language is persian and most dominant ethnic group is persian. So iran is persia and persia is the land of persians.
      Actually iran is a fake and racist name put in 1935 by puppet shakh pahlavi. Aaaryan! eeq!

    Persia and Persian are names that other countries used to refer to Iran. Iranian called themselves “Iranians” for hundreds of years. Iranians are diverse groups of people with different ethnicity and languages but shared culture and history.

    Iran and Persia are the same thing.
    Persia was a Greek name. Iran was the internal name used throughout the country's history.

    • @HAcreator-1976
      @HAcreator-1976 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      Actually Greeks pronounce it Persus. Persia is actually the English pronounciation of "Parsian" meaning "from Pars" (Pars was the name of the Cyrus The Great's main clan); either way, the term Persian is quite Persian (Iranian)

    Western bias. The journalist says she was "granted access" so that we're supposed to think it's forbidden and shrewed in secrecy and buy an overpriced documentary subscription. Also Iran and Persia are the same, just the historical names. I've visited Iran two times, Isfahan, Teheran and Persepolis were stunning. Great train connection, friendy and proud people, remember sunblock & avoid travelling in the summer because the temperatures can reach upto 50 c. Enjoy!
