Persians and Armenians

[artavazd]

So, basicly, Armenians are Armenians and Persians are Persians, different peoples, but very similar aye?

Yes. one can say the same thing about Greeks and Armenians as well. Now if we are talking about EB's timeframe, than Yes Armenians and Iranians are more similar than Greeks and Armenians. However there have been changes since that time frame. Most notibly starting from the 7th century ad with the arab invasion of Iran. The Muslims considered Christians "people of the book" so therefore were more harsh to pagan cultures. Well the Iranians were Zoroastrian, therefore "not a people of the book" for the invading Arabs. Alot of Iranian culture was destroyed during that time not to mention wholescale slaughter of Iranians who refused Islam.

Now in modern times there are Iranians who even in appearance look very similar to Armenians and there are Iranians who have more Arabic features. In my opinion and maybe I am wrong, I think invading arabs, and later on turks settled in Iran and became "Iranianized"
