This is one of the more accurate documentaries that I have seen in recent years about the Persian empire.

Thank you Khan for creating your learning platform. I am grateful for your videos. My kids and I are learning so much. 🙏🏾🙌🏽

One of the great narrations of Persian history

Nice Video! I learned a lot!

Judging from how perfect and accurate information is i’m sure this guy probably has some Persian friends because I learned these details from my parents and you can’t find some of this online. Nice video 👍

He does a lot of research, and if you have a high iq and are driven to research many different primary sources then it's not difficult to reach the right conclusion.

Awesome!

You can read "I am , king of kings, king of Persia, of the achaemenids" on almost every writings of kings of kings. "Persia" is a word that works too, it is not less preferable, it is usable because it was used by locals in that time too. Sassanids were enthousiasts of being Persians and descendant of Persians and used it in their propaganda to claim back Arcacid Empire (Parthians). If you think Persia is not a good word, you think "Roman" is not a good word too. "Farsi" is an other matter though. It is used because of arab letters as you said. The problem with that is that it destroys the origins of the very identity of Iranians/Persians.

You are wrong. Its mentioned: KING of PARSIS. Which in Persian means people who speak Persian(parsi) greeks called it Persis or Perspolice which means the city of Parsi people not as a race or country

Grégory Fleury By The word Persia doesn't mean what you think in that sentence. He's calling himself the king of Persis province.

Grégory Fleury The name Farsi has actually become common recently. Probably because the Ottomans and Arabs reffered to Iran and its language as bilad fars(lands of Persia) and farirsee(Persian, taken from middle Persian Parsig) Poets of Islamic Iran always referred to the language as Parsi.

I am so glad I found this channel, you explain very clearly and answer all my questions. Thanks ❤

IT'S THE PERSIAN EMPIREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Not fun or good it's amazing!

Curiously funny to mishear Sal saying that "much of this region that we call modern day Iran was controlled by the media"!

its BC, not BCE. They opened the tomb of Jesus in the last month in case you missed it. You might also note the map you are using has BC on it, not BCE. How about you guys keep away from this political correctness rubbish. You do great videos.

AkubraHatman Before Common Era is just the worldwide colloquially accepted term for the period the modern world among historians and scientists. Also every headline I saw never claimed to have opened Jesus's tomb just where they thought the man was buried. It's an archaeologic impossibility to determine one man from that Era of human history. There is simply too little known about him to determine physically, however there may be evidence linking him there around the time of Constantine
