Iranians feel most offended when they are treated as Arabs.
Iran is in the Middle East like the Arabs, has similar characters in writing, and above all, it's easy for us to think that Iran is also Arab because they share the same religion, Islam.
However, Iran is not Arab. Iran is Iran, and Arab is Arab.
Iran and the Arabs are very different in many ways. They are different in ethnicity, language, and even religion.
Moreover, the relationship between Iran and the Arabs has not been very good for a very long time. The relationship between Iran and the Arabs is similar to that of historical enemies. It’s understandable that they would be upset if referred to as Arabs, given that their relationship is not good to that extent.
This video discusses the differences between Iran and the Arabs and why they are like enemies.

Think of Iran like a Middle Eastern version of Yugoslavia. They're both made up of a bunch of colesely related ethinic groups that speak somewhat similar languages but with a single ethnicity that dominates all the other ones, with Serbs dominating Yugoslavia and Persians dominating Iran. Persians need the rest of Iran to work with them if they wanna maintain whats left of their historic empire, so they'd always go out of their way to make the other Iranians (Kurds, Azeris, Turkmen, Arabs, etc.) feel included.🤷🏾

As a Greek, Iran/Persia is a special country due to its unique history and culture, even in school we learn about Persian civilization and the Greco-Persian wars so we view Persia as a glorious country. So, I get annoyed when they confuse Iran or Turkey with Arabs cause they are not. But their cultures have been altered by the Arabs. The reason why people mistake Iran or Turkey for Arabs is because of the religion and fanaticism, deal with it, as long as you support !slam so desperately making it a part of your society, culture and politics you will be confused with Arabs. During Kemals rule in Turkey, where he abandoned religion and focus on western values, none dared to refer to them as Arabs, but now they are viewed differently. Same with Iran since the revolution.

yes, after Arabs invasion we become Muslim, but the Persian culture, language and identity is still there. The Arabs were only able to take control of Persia (Iran) for a while, which was not without problems for them. But never succeded destroy our PERSIAN identity!!!! Between all the places that the Arabs conquered, Iran was the only country that was able to survive. Now we have our own language (Persian) after 3000 years, also Iranian culture is still alive!!! All the annual festivals that Iranians celebrate, such as -Nowruz, -Sadeh Festival -Charshanbe Suri -Sizdeh Bedar -Mehrgan Festival -Yalda Night have Persian Zoroastrian roots, which are still popular and held in Iran. Also, things like architecture, dance, cooking, traditional music and other things are all of Iranian origin and still exist. The only thing that has completely changed are religion and Persian alphabet, which is written in Arabic script, but still the Arabs do not understand our writings. unfortunately these things do not include other places, Other places conquered by Arabs such as: Egypt, Mesopotamia (Iraq), Syria, Lebanon, became totally Arabized, and their cultures and langues were forgotten. They also embraced Arab Islam, while Iranians developed their own version of Islam (Shia) wich is an mix of Islam and iranian culture.

This was very enlightening for me. I’m embarrassed to say I’m over 60 and there’s some very basic things about people in the world and history. I never really understood well if at all. I remember spending the day in Mexico at our anthropological museum in Mexico City with a docent And he gave me the tour and then we went to the big plaza and at the end of our day I asked him how many times did I offend you today? You see in our ignorance we say things, and we don’t even realize how offensive they could actually be because we just don’t have the understanding or knowledge. Most people are very compassionate and generous about our ignorance, but really Americans can be lazy about the outside world. I grew up in Los Angeles and after the fall of the Shaw, there was a very large group of professional Iranians, who moved to the Los Angeles area mostly in Westwood near UCLA and they have a very successful community there. They’re fully integrated into California American life, and it would be very difficult to point one out really because they just look like Americans. I’ve always found them to be very interested in education, very well, mannered and often going into good professions.

Well, that's not something exclusive about _"Americans being lazy about the outside world";_ that actually occurs with people from other cultures as well. Say in my case, I am from Colombia, I am studying in Canada and my roommate is actually from Iran. We normally get along but I have found that he's very sensitive to everything related to his country and culture whereas he doesn't show any minimal interest or respect towards other cultures. For example, he gets upset even if someone simply asks him if Iranians are similar to Arabs, Kurds or Turks but he keeps confusing my nationality with Mexico, Spain or Brazil under the excuse that _"we are all the same the same 'shoot'"._ Also, if you ask him how to say something in Farsi, he will expect you to pronounce that in perfect Farsi as if you were a native speaker and he will still tell how much you s speaking his language with comments like *_"Seriously? Aren't you able to make that consonantal sound? What kind of sounds then you have in French?"_* even when he doesn't speak English that well and sometimes it's hard to understand him due to his thick accent and a lisp that he particularly has. Oh, and with respect to the *_"What kind of sounds then you have in French?"_* That is because he tends to confuse 'Spanish' and 'French' so if I correct him and tell him that I speak Spanish, not French, then he gets defensive and says something like *_"who cares, seriously? French, Spanish, whatever... You understood what I meant and French and Spanish are the same 'shoot' anyway..."_* I don't know, the more I have lived with him, the less interested I have become towards his culture. I would definitely be more understanding towards him if he showed at least a minimal interest to other cultures than his own. And just in case, I do not mind being confused with a Mexican, Brazilian or Spaniard since we share a lot of things. However, it really bothers me that he expects everyone to be super educated about his country when he does not do the minimal effort towards any other culture. Oh, and in case it's not clear, every time I wrote _'shoot',_ that's not the word he actually uses.

That is the suicide for the Persians, abandoning their official religion, Zoroastrianism, and submit to the sword of the Arabs, Islam's. Once they embraced Islam Persians are no longer Persians; they are lost people.

I always wish I could get in touch with her somehow. Anyway, since then I’ve always paid attention to the Iranians. They are far more liberal, well educated, intelligent, good solid people than many around them. Their powerful leaders seem to act the opposite to the people. I hope one day Europeans and Iranians can be somehow United in our aspersions of wanting a good life.

It is true that except they share the same religious belief, as society or ethnic groups, they don't have common background. One of the main reason people confuse to see Iran as an Arab nation is that because the country is located within the Middle East bordered and nearby the Arab nations and its dominant religion is Islam. Also, due to Islamic and Arabic culture influences, the country abandoned its own ancient alphabets and uses Arabic writing alphabets.

The word “Iran” literally translates to “Land of Aryans” which is derived from Aryanam (the plural form in Avestan) an early Iranian language. The term Aryan meaning ‘noble' in old Iranian languages was used as an ethnocultural self-designation by ancient Iranian peoples, in contrast to an an-Arya ('non-Arya'). The only recorded use of the term Arya is attested by the ancient Persian kings. The Behistun inscription in Western Iran lays a rock relief from Darius the great of the first Persian empire dating ~500BCE translated from old Persian: “I am Darius the great king, king of kings, king of countries containing all kinds of men, king in this great earth far and wide, son of Hystaspes, an Achaemenid, a Persian, son of a Persian, an Aryan, having Aryan lineage”.

Iran literally do not translate to Land of Aryan. Arya is a Sanskrit world which means nobleman who live in Aryavarta - the land of aryans. That is Jambudvīpa or Bharat. Aryans have got nothing to do with Iran and hence the Aryan invasion or migration nonsense has been debunked several times. The word ancient Indians or aryans used for Iran was barbaric outsiders and the Sanskrit world is mlecha, same goes for Greeks and Roman. (And no don’t google the world Mlecha coz there’s hardly proper definitions out there. Not even can wiki provide a proper definition.) u have to know Sanskrit for that. The boundaries of Aryavarta were from Kumbha River of Kabul to the Ganges River of India and from the valleys of Kashmir to the other side of Narmada. Aryavarta has been used in world 2 greatest epics Ramayana and Mahabharata which predates Iran or Persian civilisation. In fact the kings of Mahabharata were called Kings of Aryavarta Kindly broaden your horizon of knowledge.

My family and i are Christian apostates from Goa, who has recently converted to Hinduism like 5 years ago( my ancestral faith). I say this, because Iran is talked mostly positively in the Bible, despite being Zorastrian/Magi at the time of their domination on Jews. Now, i have truly become an Aryan( not the Nazi one, but the real deal). Even in Hindu literature, the northern Indians are called Aryans and North India is called Aryavrat( composed some 5k years ago). But, it was hard for me to count Iranians into Aryan, because of their Arabic culture and Northern Hindus are the purest Aryans( i mean, they follow true Aryan culture aka Hinduism, i have always believed). And, Hinduism does share many parallels with Zorastrianism and other European pre-Christian faiths. We are very very different tho, most Northern Hindu aka Aryan women dont cover their head( men and women are supposed to be equal) like men, but wear flowers, ribbons and gold ornaments on the hair. In contrast, most Iranians, irrespective of religion cover their head in black abayas( not that it is a bad thing but ok, its Arab/Muslim culture). But, language is what connect us, if not culture and i am proud as an Aryan/Hindu( only Hindus are Aryans in India, rest other have questionable genealogies) that Persian can stand the onslaught of Arabic and be alive to this day( where most Muslim languages are worthless or rootless ones, except Arabic). Be proud of your culture, O Iranians, history cant be reversed but you are our own kin in a distant way😊.

Okay, What is basis of tales of Hindu Goddess and Gods. Is a temple, proof for the tales being true. Why was Brahma lusted after its own creation, Saraswati? It that a God. And , What about Vishnu taking Mohini avtara to satisfy Siva, who has Wife Parvati? Your God's revolves around lust , eg. Krishna 💩💩💩

​@@ribamariyam321are you studying right now? If so I'd suggest you to work hard in whatever field you are pursuing your education. Once you get a high paying job and become independent, just convert to Sanathan Dharma. Plus there is no conversion criteria in Sanathan. You may simply start visiting temples and listen to the speeches of various hindu saints. You might have to change your personal details though.

Even before the Iranian Revolution, the Shah was someone who knocked heads over who would be the main power dominating the Persian Gulf. (The Saudis do not even like to call it by that name.) Sometimes it is simply a matter of powerful nations projecting their influence into areas of strategic concern, which causes them to come into conflict. Religious ties and political alliances might grant some influence to Iran in places like Iraq or Syria or Lebanon, but ethnic differences limit them. The public in the West does not really understand these complexities; if they did, they would take a very different view on what happens in that part of the world - hopefully a more realistic and less paranoid one.

I find Iranians to be highly cultured and well educated people. My best friend is Persian and she is not religious at all, she totally blames it on the oppressive Muslim government. Widely enough she is attracted to western christian people. She is open minded and she is ADAMANTly against islam creeping into Western culture. We had our children together. Now there are certain ethnic groups she cannot stand, like Arabs and some south Asian cultures. I am Caribbean so my family is literally the United Nations so I have Arab, White, South Asian and Asian family. She is one of my best buddies and if anything happened to me I would trust my children with her. She knows my secrets and I know hers. We share a Turkish friend who does not like Arabs either. Weirdly I am the one that is constantly challenging their beliefs both of them tell me look Arabs are racists as are most Muslims. They tell it to me like Fact, not up for discussion. Both of them tag team on their dislike for muslim practices and constantly tell me if Muslims were running this country the whole place would sink into their cultural muslim abyss. I tell them Christian are restrictive too. They respond to me, you have no idea what a restrictive faith is like to live in. They are the biggest protectors of Western culture!

They are not Arabs, but they were culturally colonised by Arabs - which is precisely why they use a modified version of the Arabic script (instead of their original Avestan script) and follow a modified version of the Arab’s religion (instead of their indigenous Zoroastrian faith).

And Arabs have their whole civilization thanks to Iranians. Their food, their music, their architecture and even Iranians wrote their first grammar books and dictionaries for them. Additionally, the so-called "Islamic Golden Age" was mostly the results of Iranian contributions. Before the Arab conquest of Persia Arabs were some desert dwelling people with no recorded material civilization. Arabs should be thankful to Iranians considering that Arabs have done nothing for Iranians except they tried to wipe out their culture and to this day still they seem to be very ignorant about how Iranians have shaped their world. Iranians are not Arabs and in the very near future we won't be Muslims as well thanks to the Islamic regime making everyone in Iran hate Islam.

Musically, culturally, linguistically and literary, Persia does not resemble the Semitic Arab world.

Iran's civilization is very old and, unfortunately, it has had various conquerors throughout history, such as Alexander the Great - Genghis Khan the Mongol - the Muslim Arabs of Saudi Arabia, etc., for this reason, it has influenced the religion, language, and customs of Iranians to some extent changed, with However, after all these years, Persian culture, language, religion and customs still exist and are always admired by many historians and researchers.
