Iran is one of the rare countries and culture which could stand all conquerors. Everytime Phoenix rises from ashes. Its fantastic culture and literature influences/influenced the world. Its poets spread all around Iranian pleatuo from Molana Romi in nowadays Turkey to Nezami Ganjavi in nowadays Azerbaijan, to its historic monuments in nowadays Russia, Oman, Pakistan, Turkmenistan, Tajikistan, Ghazaghistan, Iraq, India (Taj Mahal), Turkey, Ukraine, west of China, Uzbekistan, Afghanistan, etc.

So many books were destroyed, so many scientists, researchers and poets were killed or fled such as Molana Rome who escaped to Western borders of Iran which now is part of Turkey.

After collapse of soviet union, the aggressive colonial powers, and Saddam regime, it is the first time in some hundred years that Iran surrounded by weaker states, except Turkey and US navy in Persian Gulf . Establishing a security agreement with US and reaching an understanding with Turkey would be the next steps in securing the borders. Greater middle east would matter less for Iran if a balance of power within divided Arab states is realized. Considering long history of cultural and trade hub in west Asia, Iran have to restore its soft power superiority in the next door regions in order to secure its internal dynamics as well, maybe the most critical security problem in long run. Water supply management and Economic growth are the most immediate internal security issues which shall need to be addressed quickly.
Iran did not defeated or conquered by Turks, but only the Macedonians, the Arabs and the Mongols recorded three failures in the 10,000 years of Iranian civilization ...The beginning of the Turks presence in Iran is that...The Turks were the slaves who fought for Iran(Persia) in wars, but later they came to power with something like a coup...

Persia reached its territorial height a millennia before any of the conquerers you mentioned. After the Arabs, the Buyids were the only Persian dynasty to go beyond modern day Iran before the Seljuq turks. Between the turks and the Mongols there were no ruling Persian dynasties. After the Mongols, the minor Persian kingdoms never expanded in to non Persian lands. And only after a Timurid invasion was an independent united Shahdom of Persia established under the Azeri and over time more and more Persian Safavid dynasty. The only lands beyond Persia that they ruled over were Mesopotamia and lands in the Caucasus. So no, Persian expansion definitely wasn’t initiated by outside conquerors.

Iran's strength has always been its ability to absorb invaders, Persianize them, and then use them as fresh soldiers to conquer neighboring lands. The Seljuks, for example, were originally Turkic, but adopted Persian culture, language, and customs. They even based their empire in Isfahan. Turkic tribes, from that point on, became one of the backbones of Iran's military. Iranian civilization is the only major civilization in the region that survived the rise of Islam. It took all the best parts of old Elamite civilization and fused them with the warlike spirit of the Iranian tribes that arrived to the region from Central Asia 3000 years ago. In that sense, it's a hybrid culture focused on survival, commerce, science, and military power. Iran's terrain has helped stave off invasions more often than not. It's river valley's although not as bountiful as those of Mesopotamia, Egypt, India, and China, have helped it maintain a relatively large population. Its overall place in the world as a crossroads between Asia, Africa, and Europe, have made it critical for trade throughout history. It was the center of the Silk Road. That is why, despite its less-than ideal terrain it has remained the seat of empires time and time again.

PERSIA IS PERSIA...one of the most ancient, civilised and cultural Nation in the World. IRAN is a geographicalName, Not a nation. as a Greek, Persia connects.

The name Iran was actually chosen by the Persians to keep from discrimination and labeling the nation as one ethnicity. As only half of Iran is actually Persian, the Shah chose the name "Iran" as its future name in order to represent all of those in Iran. The meaning of Iran is similar or same to Aryan. Iran in Persia means "Land of the Aryans"

Iran is always called Iran. It was Romans and Greeks who called it Persia! Same applies to Greek as they never called themselves Greek but something like Yena and it is West which called them Greek.

@@maryb6074 sorry but IRAN IS a geographical term derived from the Iranian Plateau which in turn is derived from ARYAN the original name of the White Race, also known as Indo-European. the Greeks called it PERSIA deriving from PARS and their language PARSI or FARSI. Cyrus the Great, Darius, Xerxes and others were Persians NOT Iranians. from India to Greece and Egypt the Great power and civilisations were Persian. the modern name IRAN was adopted for politics to be more inclusive of the various ethnic groups inhabiting the Iranian Plateau. but their language, culture and customs are still Persian. The name GREEK is a mystery coined by some crazy Roman in former Greek southern Italy. there has never been a name called Greek for Greeks. HELLAS and HELLENES is the correct name and always has been. the Name YUNAN and YUNANISTAN which since Persian times has become the name for Hellas and Hellenes comes from the region Of IONIA (now Turkey) which was conquered by the Persians around 500BC and and applied to all Greeks.

The Greeks conquered them, then the Parthian. Then they freed themselves, fought the Byzantines, lost, and were pushed over by the Arabs after losing against Heraclius (the Byzantine Emperor). Then came the Turks and Mongols, and some other factions until the year 1501, when Iran finally assumed its more or less modern form.

IR IRAN.
Who decided to change the name of Persia to Iran, the name Iran sounds Hostile, Persia is a more pleasant peaceful place.

+Fender Blues thanks for your input. Iran means Land of Aryans. It's not a hostile name at all in fact. We've had Iranian Plato and the word Iran has been around for at least 4,000 years. Persia is the name of the core Persian Empire, today only a province of Iran. Imagine if the United States was called "Texas". How would others feel? So King of the Kings, Shahanshah Reza Pahlavi changed the country name to Iran to reflect the greater Iranian ethnicity.

Fender Blues With all due respect, the reason one think Iraq Iran is hostile names is purely because of media influence on us. This is really unhealthy way of thinking and deep down comes from anxiety over differences... I know you've mentioned UK and Israel among those hostile names... but because of the power they have in media (and are truly capitalizing on it by 'mildly' 'cleverly' influencing people's minds), they'lll get a way out of it, hence your feelings and thoughts and mine etc simply do not matter when they're concerned! Yes, it does not matter! All I am saying, with much respect, is please let's go in a more logical peaceful game. Let's play together. Today X Y Z have power and 'fudge' weaker one (cleverly), tomorrow the weaker oppressed ones may rise up for retaliation. This is not a good game, and unfortunately it's being played quite often! Thanks for your understanding and polite reply. For us, the word "Iran" rhymes so beautifully and we love it. Let's have more mutual respect between every two people from country X and Y.
