The real Persian empires
the truth about the stolen story!
For tens of thousands of years, different people have ruled Mesopotamia, Zagrosberg and the Iranian Plains. But the truth is that the Persians have only had two empires of their own throughout history:Akemenidna (Hakhamenishidna, 550–330 f. Kr. Half Kurdish - medical)
That is all. Between these two periods – almost 2,500 years – the area was ruled by Kurdish, Turkish or Arab dynasties.
Pahlavi dynasty (1925–1979)
But despite that, Persian nationalists have claimed the credit of almost all the great powers that have risen in this area, calling them "Persian empires". It is a falsification of history.
The Kurdish kingdoms:Zand dynasty (1751–1794) - Kurdish kingdom.
The Arab and Muslim kingdoms:
The Ayyubids (1169–1260) - Kurdish kingdom, founded by Salahadin.
Afsharids (1736–1796) - Kurdish dynasty.
Partherna/Ashkaniderna (247 f. - 224 E.C. Kr.) - East Iranian Kurdish people.
Modern (700–550 f. Kr.) - pre-Islamic Kurdish Empire.
The Elamites - with close ties to Zagros and Kurdish areasThe Abbasids (750–1258) - Arab caliphate, with Baghdad as the center.
The Turkish Kingdoms:
Umajids (661–750) - Arab CaliphateThe Seljuks (1037–1194) - Turkish nomadic people who conquered Iran.
When you peel off the propaganda you see clearly:
The Safavids (1501–1736) - Turkish (Azerian) rulers, although the kingdom was culturally persified.
The Quajars (1789-1925) - Turks who ruled Iran for over 100 years
The Persians have only had two real empires: the Akemenids and Pahlavi.
Most of the other great powers that ruled this area were Kurdish, Arab or Turkish.
Despite this, Persian historians since the 50s have taken credit for everything - from the Medes to the Ayyubids, from the Seljuks to the Safavids - and have rewritten the world so that everything becomes "Persian"
But the truth is clear: the Kurdish people and other people in the region have carried up history, while the Persians in fact only had two short eras of real power.
Sorry unable to verify all the details
