A beautiful mountainous country of the Mideast world-renowned for its innumerable contributions to world culture, refined classical music, high standard of education, and delicious cuisine. Also has an interesting mix of ethnicities and religions including Jewish, Kurdish, Azerbaijani, and Georgian. Unfortunately for many years it was ruled by the dictatorial Shah Pahlavi; the mullah Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini; and the anti-Israel, anti-Semitic, Hezbollah-supporting Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. However, now with the much more moderate Hassan Rouhani in power, we and many other countries around the world now have a chance at peace with Iran. Iran is bordered by Armenia, Turkey, Iraq, Azerbaijan, Turkmenistan, Afghanistan, and Pakistan.
President Obama has a chance at better diplomatic relations with Iran now that Hassan Rouhani is in power.

A Middle Eastern Muslim nation, formerly known as Persia, that used to be progressive before a bunch of religious lunatics gained power. Now, 67% of its people live in poverty and its current president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, has instituted fundamentalist Islamic "reforms" that mirror the Taliban, even going so far as to have separate sidewalks built for men and women, and banning Western music and pop culture. They claim to want a nuclear program for "peaceful purposes" and energy, despite mountains of evidence indicating that they really want to build nuclear weapons with which to wipe out Israel and America to pave the way for the return of the Mahdi--a Muslim ruler who is believed to have fallen down a well in 941 A.D. and will return when times are at their worst (yes, you read that right: he fell down a well). Iran rakes in hundreds of billions of dollars worth of oil revenue a year, but instead of using that money to help their people and improve their refineries and natural energy sources, the money is used to fund terrorist organizations such as Hamas and Hezbollah, as well as their unnecessary "peaceful" nuke program; the rest of it goes into the pockets of the corrupt old Mullahs. It is estimated that around 2/3 of the Iranian population is under 30 years of age, and that the vast majority of these people hate the Mullahs; but instead of rising up and overthrowing them, they spend their time whining about how evil America is and burning Israeli and American flags, and denying that the Holocaust ever happened even though the Shah was a supporter of Hitler during World War II--Pahlavi even changed the name of the country from "Persia" to "Iran", a Farsi derivation of "Aryan", in reference to the idea of a proto-Indo-European lineage supported by both Nazis and Persian ethnologists.
Iran: 7500 years of history, and only about 500 were any good.

The beautiful mysterious safe country of hospitable Persians with a wide variety of cultures and climates and organic food located in middle east (southwest of asia).

This country is ultimatly against tyranny of the U.S around the world. because of this the U.S massmedia and the U.S politicans and the big idiot of the century (Trump) are spreading negative theories about Iran making tourists worried to go there and making Iran a very misterious country. Also the sanctions have made difficulties for living in Iran but also they has made Iran a very cheap country for tourists to travel because dollar has become expensive in Iran's currency.
I traveled to Iran and it was better than I expected

A beautiful country in the Middle-East and is not nothing like Iraq, though a lot of people think it is a desert.
Not a good place to drink beer or get laid by hott bitches, but definitely a nice place to own a salon and cut peoples unibrows off.
People from Iran are often called towelheads, but they are not arab.
The Iranian boy was called a towelhead and told that he should go back to Iraq. He replied to this racist comment by saying "Shut up you stupid piece of poop, before I attack you with my super unibrow!

Next stop on the Bush/Cheney war bus.
Want to see the future? Take any speech about foreign policy Bush made in late 2002/early 2003 and replace "Iraq" with "Iran".
