Persian

An ethnicity making up around 60% of Iranians, and majority of Afghanistan and Tajikistan. Unlike how most Iranian Americans say, they claim that Iran is a persian nation, which is partially true, but using the terms persian and Iranian interchangeably is very ignorant. Persians are an Iranic race, so are Kurds, Gilaks, etc. Iran refers to a nation, so if you use iranian and persian interchangeably, you completely exclude all other Persians. Persian is a very different language then Azeri, Gilaki, Kurdish, etc. One thing to note is how people say Iran is not an arab nation, which is mostly true, however 1-4% of Iranians are arab.

Iranian American: “Yeah Iran isn’t arab, we’re persian. The words persian and Iranian are interchangeable”

Me: “only 60% of Iranians are persian! I’m not persian I’m Gilaki and Azari, and you completely forget the Persians of Afghanistan, Tajikistan and the ones in Uzbekistan, you are confusing nationality and ethnicity”
