Persianism

A cultural and civilizational identity centered on Iran’s pre-Islamic Persian heritage, advocating for a return to indigenous Persian values, language, symbols, and secular self-rule. Persianism emphasizes cultural continuity, national sovereignty, and freedom from religious governance imposed after the 7th century. It rejects being forced into modern geopolitical labels and asserts the right of Iranians to define themselves on their own historical and cultural terms.

“Calling Iranian secularists ‘Zionist’ makes no sense—what they stand for is Persianism.”
"She’s not aligned with any religious ideology—she’s a Persianist who wants a secular Iran rooted in its own history and values."

Persianian

(pronounced PERJZH - AYN - EE - EN)

A compromise between the words "Persian" and "Iraynian."

Adjective used to describe people living in the US or Europe whose parents or ancestors hail from Iran and who speak Farsi (the Persianian language).

The term was coined in order to bring unity between different schools of thought in the Persianian community on how to identify themselves.

White co-worker/classmate John: "Dude Mehrdad where are you from?"

Mehrdad: "I was born in Laguna Niguel, California but I am Persian."

John: "Like in the movie 300? But Persia doesn't exist anymore!"

Mehrdad: "My parents are from Iran. People from Iran are Persian."

John: "If you're from Iran wouldn't that make you Iranian?"

Mehrdad: "No I am Persian."

Sohrab: "You are both wrong. Mehrdad is Persianian."

John: "Ohhh. Now it all makes sense."

Mehrdad: "Okay if you guys don't mind I have to go study for my Loyola Law School finals now."

Persians 

Persians are an ethnic group from the country of Iran, they are the direct descendents of ancient Indo-Iranians (Aryans), who arrived in parts of Greater Iran circa 2000-1500 BCE and constitute the largest ethnic group in Iran and one the oldest.

Persians have played a crucial part in the history of Iran and their cultural achievement and language (Farsi) constitutes the basis of Iranian society. Persians and ancient Medes(modern Kurds)established the first Iranian state.

Persians lend their name to the Persian Empire (Achamenid Empire) which at the height of its power encompassed approximately 7.5 million square kilometres and became the largest empire of the ancient world.

The Persian Gulf in the Southwest Asian region located between Iran and the Arabian Peninsula is also named after the Persian people.

Real Persians hail from Iran only, other ethnic group native to other countries sometimes wrongfully claim to be Persian because they speak various dialects of the Persian language.

Excuse me miss, what is your nationality?

I'm Persian and we are called Persians!

Persians 

One of the most successful and awesome races on the planet.

Although some Persian people love plastic surgery and showing off their tacky Chanel bags, a large majority of Persian people have naturally beautiful features and bodies and are very modest, hardworking people.

Persian people are obsessed with cleanliness. Their homes are so clean you can eat off their floors, usually accented by Persian rugs and expensive European paintings. They place a huge emphasis on looking and smelling good, which is why so many of them buy expensive perfumes and(authentic) designer clothes.

Their spending habits can be somewhat ridiculous. A lot of Persians buy their children expensive German cars without much thought and live in expensive houses.

Persian people raise their children to work hard and get good grades. They are such perfectionists that a large majority of them become sucessful doctors, businessmen, and entrepeneurs.

Persian men can be extremely hot-tempered, so watch who you mess with. A Persian father is the epitome of masculinity. They may be strict, have a short fuse, and throw one too many vases at the wall, but they live for their children.

Persian women are extremely beautiful and have huge hearts. A Persian mother will always welcome a stranger into her house, and encourage them to eat until they can't walk anymore. They are very kind and giving people.

Persian people love soccer, tea ("chayee"), having huge parties at their houses, and getting into a good argument. They can be extremely dramatic and love making life into a soap opera, but it's part of their charm.

Although they are frequently categorized as a "brown" race, they have Aryan blood and are considered "white".

Their race has been tainted by the media, the tragedy of 9/11, and their country's horrible government, which ALL Persian people hate for ruining their beautiful country. Ever wonder why Persians don't call themselves "Iranians"? It's because they don't like to be affiliated with the Iranian government that ruined their country (and their reputations all over the world).

Persians are intelligent, beautiful, and successful people. Stop judging them so harshly and get to know them. You just might find find a friend for life if you do.

Joe: Duuude! I can't believe your dad just bought Bahar a BMW Z4 for her birthday! You Persians are CRAZY!
Afshin: Well, she got straight A's, man.
Joe: Ha, you Persians are such overachievers.
