Lies or miss information?
Are you trying to pick which one you're going to use this time ?
Saying most Persian Empires were Islamic is a historical and cultural blasphemy.
Said someone who never read anything about the history of Iran.
Here is a list of non-Muslim imperial dynasties that Iran had:
1-Achaemenids
2-Parthians
3-Sasanians.
A list of Muslim Imperial Dynasties of Iran:
-Samanids
-Safarids
-Ghurids
-Buyids
-Ziyarids
-Seljuks
-Khwarezmids
-Timurids
-Safavids
-Afsharids
-Zands
-Qajars
-Pahlavis
There seems to be some difference in size between those two lists. What do you think ?
I think is time for you to go to a Islamic political forum were you will find other nut jobs willing to accept alternative facts as reality.
And its time for you to do a little research before you enter a discussion.
It is not "cultural blasphemy" to admit the fact that our first major rise to power was simply lucky timing right after the collapse of all rival powers in the world, filling the largest power vacuum in history of human civilization. Those are just facts, and we're not stupid (unlike some) to deny them.
Iranian cultural and identity today is a mixture between old Persian mysticism, Zoroastrianism and Islam. With many minor influences from various other cultures. If you don't like, well, fuck off. None of us gives a fuck whether you like our culture or not.
Persians stopped progressing when Islam arrived.
Amazing archtecture, engineering, art, gardens.
While we indeed have amazing architectural wonders spread all over the nation, anyone with minor information about it would know that those that can be visited today cover a wide range of historical periods, starting from over a thousand year before the first Persian empire, and all the way up to the last couple of dynasties of the 19th and 20th century.
With a larger number being of the latter periods rather than the earlier periods as the nation grew richer and richer with passing centuries and ruling dynasties built more and more monuments to show grandeur.
