Iran from above - In the mountains | DW Documentary

Iran’s mountainous terrain has always been an important part of people’s lives. Years ago, these mountains were populated by legendary horsemen. Today, they are the subject of scientific investigation.
This film provides the viewer with stunning arial views of these mountains. It unfurls the rich tapestry of Iran’s history, from the legendary Order of the Assassins to the Mongol invasions.
We also get to know Iran by meeting some of the fascinating people who live there. Take Ali, a world champion of mounted archery. Despite its waning popularity, the sport has endured in Iran due the importance of horses throughout Iranian history. We get to explore the historic Tabiz bazaar, which is still a bustling market and kaleidoscope of cultures today. There, we meet Dschebrael, a stall owner who speaks Azeri, the official language of Azerbaijan. In fact, Azeri can be heard throughout the market, which serves as a meeting place for Iran’s many ethnic groups, and thus as a microcosm of the country’s cultural diversity.
The film introduces us to beekeepers and violinmakers, as well as young people living in Iran who want to travel and express themselves freely on social media -- even though it is forbidden.

    Iranians are among the nicest people I have met. You have to understand, politics are complicated. The people are not the rulers. Persians were always successful throughout the history. There would be no Islamic Golden Age without them. So, despite many obstacles, they will find ways to rise up. Who knows, someday their Safavid and Qajar flags will fly again.

    Too bad Aryans weren't Muslims and didn't speak Arabic. All organized religions are false. Persians have more in common with Slavs, Celtic, Greek, Roman, and German people than they do with Arabs. Everyone knows Indo Europeans (Yamnaya people) migrated from north of the Black Sea (Pontic Steppe) between 4000-3000 BCE. The oldest swastikas in the world are found in Ukraine. And the first horse riders are the Yamnaya people.

    Aryans and Indo Europeans are cool. I despise the Abrahamic religions. Vedic Aryans are great too. The Rigveda is amazing. Can't say the same for the Quran or the Bible. Plus, we all know Jesus was really a Zoroastrian. It's why the "Magi" (magic) (magicians) Three Wise Men came from northern Iran to search for the Son of God. So Jesus is cool but organized religions are horrible.

    Plus, Scythians migrated all the way into western Europe in 800 BCE, so Europeans are both Yamnaya and Iranian Aryans. The Scythians integrated with the Celts. And Aryans call themselves Aryans after their mythical homeland of 'Arya', which is the Pontic Steppe. The oldest domesticated horses don't come from Iran like this documentary tries to proclaim. They come from the Pontic Steppe, which is modern day Ukraine and western Russia. This has already been determined by archeology and genetics.

    There is a strange and ancient love between Iranians and Armenians. I have not seen almost any Iranian who does not praise the Armenian people whenever they talk about them. I know that a large number of Armenians came to my country because of the Ottoman wars and World War II, and then they became part of us because of the great cultural respect and love. And no one considered them foreigners or Armenians anymore, but they were part of Iran and in the war between Iran and Saddam, a large number of Armenians were martyred to protect the soil of Iran. It is a strange love in history.

    India and Iran have a lot of history. Iran had the Avesta, India had the Vedas. Parsis took asylum in India and flourished there, and are loved by Indians, and Parsis love their Indian nationality. Iranians, and Indians were one people and migrated then split off, one went to Indus valley, and one went to present day Iran. Persian was one of the official languages of India before the British came. Some Punjab people have "Iranian neolithic farmer" genetics.Punjab in Persian means "five rivers" Some of the Gurus like Guru Nanak wrote poetry in Persian. The Persian Ahmad Ustad helped with the Taj-Mahal. There are so many more connections.

    One correction the language that people of Tabriz speak is not Turkish. It is Azerbaijani Turkic language which is not the same as Turkish.

    One other correction. Ancient Azeri people used to speak Old Azeri (now extinct) which is linked to other Iranian languages, particular the Talysh dialect, it had no Turkic roots. The only reason their language became Turkified was due to Oghuz Turkic Invasion/migration. The fact that he claims it's his native tongue is historically and culturally incorrect.

    @@outlawfly664 There's no such thing as Turkified, nor anything called "old Azari". Azerbaijan is the name of a region and anyone who lives here regardless of ethnic background is an "Azeri". Today most Azeris are Azerbaijani Turks (Also known as Caucasian Turks). People of Azerbaijan before the Seljuk migrations spoke a variety of different languages from Caucasian languages such as Lezgin and Albanian to Talysh, Tat and Gilaki, but after Seljuk migrations this region's language became predominantly Azerbaijani Turkish. So like our ancestors (The Seljuks) we have an Iranian-Turkic-Caucasian/Caspian root and we are proud of it, but ethnically we are TURKS and there's no changing this reality.
