history of Iran before the Aryans, the civilization of the inhabitants of Silk hill (in Kashan), the Kasi civilization (in Kermanshah and Lorestan), the civilizations of Sokhte city (in Sistan), the Jiroft civilization (in Kerman), the Urartu civilization (in Azerbaijan), the Gyan hill (in Nahavand), the Tapurs in Tabaristan (Mazandaran) and the Ilam civilization (in the north of Khuzestan) existed in Iran.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Elam was the largest civilization in the history of Iran, whose land was in the southwest of Iran and roughly corresponds to Khuzestan.\u00a0Susa was its capital and there were also works related to this civilization.\u00a0Of course, it can be said that separate governments in the Elam civilization were ruled by different kings over different parts.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>These areas were called Shush, Anshan, Ivan and Simesh.\u00a0Elam was mainly at war with many developed Mesopotamian states such as Babylonia, Akkad, Sumer, and Assyria.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>At the time of the emergence of Iranian emperors (550 BC), Elam became one of the tributary lands of Iran.\u00a0At that time, the city of Susa was very magnificent and rich, and the Elamite language was one of the 3 languages \u200b\u200bin which the royal writings of Iran were written.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span>Migration of Aryans to Iran<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span>The Aryans include a large number of white races whose homeland probably extended from the north of the Black Sea and the Caspian to the Sihun and Jihun rivers.\u00a0Subsequently, a part of the Aryans migrated to Iran and India and another part to Europe, and that is why Asian people and their languages \u200b\u200bare called Indo-European.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\"

When Mahmud Afghan left Afghanistan, he occupied the cities of Bam and Kerman on his way and quickly went to Isfahan in It was movement.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>At the same time, Shah Sultan Hossein had ordered that there should be no men in shops and markets for one day every year, and instead of them, their daughters and wives should be present at the place of business of their fathers and husbands, so that according to the king&#8217;s fatwa, all women are mahram to him. They were and should not have been taken from him, they were seen by the king.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The king chooses beautiful girls and women from among them and takes them to his harem.\u00a0Unfortunately, many people of that time believed that the water with which the king washed his hands was healing and if only a drop was given to the patient, it would cure him.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span>The most popular kings of Iran:<\/span><\/h3>\n<h4><span>Koresh Kabir (Zulqarnain):<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span>Undoubtedly, the most popular king in the history of Iran is Cyrus the Great.\u00a0The only person whose name is proudly mentioned in the Quran as Dhul-Qarnain. In the Torah, he is also mentioned as a righteous servant of God.\u00a0The prophets of Bani Israel considered Cyrus the Achaemenid as the promised Messiah and the savior of the nations.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>This great king wrote the charter of freedom for the first time in the history of mankind.\u00a0Cyrus established the first government whose extent was from the Indus River to the Mediterranean Sea.\u00a0This king added to his empire by defeating three great empires in that era, but he did not show the slightest disrespect and cruelty to the defeated kings, and in the end, he treated the people of those nations with kindness and compassion.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Cyrus the Great brought about the moral revolution in ancient times.\u00a0For this reason, he is rightfully the best king in the history of Iran and even the world.\u00a0One of the most important moral characteristics of Koresh the Great was his interest and love for the family&#8217;s continuity and his loyalty to his wife Kasandan.\u00a0He married only one woman in his whole life and after her death, he never took another wife.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span>Darius the Great:<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span>Darius was a wise and strong-willed king who re-established the Achaemenid government and created very important organizations in it.\u00a0So that Alexander and the Seleucids and later the Sasanians ruled in the same way.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Some researchers consider Darius to be the most important king of Iran and consider only Cyrus and Anushirvan to be comparable to him.\u00a0During his rule, Darius expanded his territory from the Indian Peninsula in Asia to Macedonia and the Danube River in Europe, and on the other hand Egypt and Libya and a part of Sudan in Africa.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span>Anoushirvan Adel:<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span>Khosrow Anushirvan was the beloved king of the Sasanians, who some historians consider him to be the greatest king of Iran. There is no doubt that he was the greatest king of the Sasanian dynasty because he was a just and strict king, a warrior and resourceful, a general and brave.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>It was during his time that the Sassanid government reached the peak of its greatness by defeating the Roman army several times.\u00a0This king wiped out the Hayatele government from the face of time, put the Turks on the other side of the Jihun River in their place, tamed the wild Khazars, expelled the Abyssinians from Yemen and took possession of this country.\u00a0On the other hand, his reforms in internal affairs breathed a new spirit into the body of Iran.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span>Shapur I:<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span>Shapur I defeated three Roman emperors and captured the Roman emperor Valerianus.\u00a0He was one of the kings of Shakil, with determination and in the name of Sassanid, whom the people of Iran loved very much.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span>Shapur II (Zol-Aktaf):<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span>This famous king had the longest reign in the history of Iran with 70 years of rule.\u00a0With his authority and power, Shapur II was able to prevent the brutal Arabs, Huns, and Georgians from invading Iran.\u00a0He defeated the Roman emperors on several occasions and received compensation from them.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span>Mehrdad Kabir:<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span>Mehrdad Kabir is one of the great Parthian kings.\u00a0This king was able to dominate the Scythians and the desert people who were pressing the country from the north and add Armenia to the area of \u200b\u200bIran.\u00a0In addition, he reached the borders of Iran to the Himalayas in Tibet.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span>First order:<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span>Among the famous Parthian kings of his time, the memory of the defeat of the Romans led by Crassus against the Persians led by Sorena was a source of pride for all Iranians.\u00a0Because the Iranian army had 10,000 men and the Roman army had 50,000 men in this battle, and the Iranians destroyed the entire Roman army with their skilled shooters.\u00a0This war is considered one of the most incredible battles of ancient times.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span>Shah Abbas Kabir:<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span>This famous Safavid king brought Iran to the peak of greatness during his reign and won several times over the Ottoman and Uzbek armies on two different fronts.\u00a0Shah Abbas removed the port of Gambrun from the Portuguese and later this port was named Bandar Abbas.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>This king made reforms in Iran and Iran was considered the cradle of world civilization in his time.\u00a0As far as Isfahan was called the capital of their territory, that is half of the world.\u00a0But this famous Iranian king oppressed the people at the end of his life and blinded and killed his children.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span>Nadir Shah Afshar:<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span>A king who has one of the sweetest lessons in the history of elementary school books that every Iranian child would like to read, Nadir Shah Afshar cut short the hands of Afghan, Russian and Ottoman thugs from Iran and the conqueror of India.\u00a0This Shah was a powerful and very brave general, but he was not successful in government affairs.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span>Karim Khan Zand:<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span>This king was popular among the people due to his simplicity, kindness and innate purity, so that he called himself the lawyer of his subjects.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Iran, a land full of courage and history-making saga, a vast country that is always present in the heart of world history, cannot be included in a few lines and writings, because as we move forward in its history, we discover a wider world.
