American perceptions in one image. Persians in the palace, Arabs in the slums.
I’m an Arab and this is my conception too lol
Iranians aren’t Arabs and don’t speak Arabic
Yeah we know that but does the average American whose only use of the word Persian comes from rugs, coffee, and mahbe some sweets.
Excuse me I’ll have you know I played Prince of Persia and its reboot.
Iranians have been fighting arabs since Elam and Sumaria were around.
Then what about the Arab Iranians in Khuzestan?
Use the Arabic script though.
Uh… Maybe?
Honestly so do I but more like culturally rich rather than literally. Islam would be Hella dim if it wasn’t for Persian influences, and I say this as a non Persian.
I’ve always pictured it more as “Tacky luxury, maybe with Mediterranean flair.”
ie: gilt everything, over-decorated, looks expensive for the sake of looking expensive.White BMW
