Dear viewers! I spent 2 full weeks making this documentary and tried my best to compress 5000 years of Iran’s history into the most valuable and engaging format possible. Also, around 95% of the images used are from real historical sites, so you’re seeing actual history, not just random visuals. If you think anything can be improved or if you want me to cover any specific empire or country next, let me know in the comments. Thank you all for your support
Also one thing to note , every empire tried to conquer persia , ended after that..
Hopefully we Iranians will be free soon ❤️🦁❤️
If Iran were not in Islamic Dictatorships regime it will be the best place to live in the middle east.
What could have been had Islam been stopped in the 600s. Cyrus had it right. He's one of my favorite historical figures.
Cyrus was a role model for Alexander too. He read a lot about Cyrus and idolized him. It's said he knelt down and cried at the tomb of Cyrus
Most Iranians would find your segment on the Islamic Republic’s rise and brutality incomplete. The Pahlavi era was defined by nation-building, and the 1953 events were more complex than a "US coup." Today, the Khamenei regime is widely hated a referendum would likely result in its collapse. Interestingly, the regime often finds more support among foreign anti-imperialists than among the Iranian people themselves.
Also, there’s no mention of their building of Hasballah Hamas and the other terrorist organisations that they wasted their peoples money on and bloodshed
Forever battles and being invaded. It is no wonder, to me, why Iran is as it exists presently. Incredible and resilient people, I believe. Thank You for creating and sharing. So difficult to fit so much into eighteen minutes, and there is definitely more. Well-Done, You. ☮️ From USA/A Lover Of History And Civilizations.
It's a historical mistake that democracy started from Greeks, actually Cyrus laid the foundation of democracy in his kingdom.
You should have mentioned the role of president Carter (USA) in bringing back Khomeini and toppling the Shah!!
A history shaped by constant conflict and repeated invasions—it’s no surprise, to me, that Iran stands as it does today. Through centuries of hardship, it has endured, preserved its identity, and continued to rise again and again. Truly, an incredible and resilient people.
Long live Iran ❤️💘. May God continue protecting you.
كيف اقتنع من جاء عبر البحار والمحيطات أن يهزم بلاد عمرها آلاف السنين إلا أن يكون مصاب في عقله
Goodness, what a brilliant narration and what an excellent way of condensing such a complex and diverse history. Iran remains an absolute story of strength, resilience and resistance. May it continue
Iran is a force to be reckoned with. God is with Iran.
Thank you so much for this documentary on the Iranian Plateau / Greater Iranian World, because as a Pakistani, this is also our history, and i learnt a lot today about Pakistan too - as we can see from all the maps you showed, Pakistan was a part of this 4500 year history of the Greater Iranian World. 😊
As an Sunni Iranian, the farsi writting is directly related to arabic after arabs conquest, that why some people sometime can't tell the difference
Italia qui: onore a Voi 🌹🇮🇷🇮🇹
Great quality of content would love to see more of it !!
