Interesting question.
Statistically, the two races that score highest are East Asians and Whites. East Asians have the higher average, but most Asians are at or near that average. Whites have the second highest average, but have a broader range. (ie. Some may have an average that is significantly higher then the White average, while others may have an average that is statistically lower.) As far as Persians go, however, I've never really seen statistics for them. (I think that they may be included in the White percentage.)

In Ancient history, The Persians rivaled the Egyptians in commerce, industry, math, science and engineering as did the Asians of China...but, What is a Nimrod? In fighting and tribalism broke out that eventually caused the downfall of Babylon, similar to modern times....In my opinion, intelligent life is beginning not to exist on Terra firma.

Each race was responsible for some pretty remarkable historical advancements of human knowledge. I don't know that there is a genetic explanation. Probably just cultural. Right now I would say Asians are positioned better culturally to produce innovation and human advancement. There is a fundamentalist islamic regime in Persia (now Iran) that doesn't place a high value on secular pursuits.

Well you ain't in either group, I can tell ya that - Persians are an ethnic group, not a race. An in every race and ethnic group you have very, very few smart people and LOTS of dimwits, pretty much equally across all groups.

Society perceives Asian people as the geeks so I'm going to go with that. I've never heard of Persian people being geeks.
However, I am not a geek by far so I don't really listen too closely to the stereotypes.

Intelligence depends on every individual. But some races are good at certain aspects (advantages) or bad in some fields (disadvantages).

yes those people are smart. but most were pressured by their parents to do good on their academics. which i feel is not right. i know they do this because they only want their kids to be secure with their finances. they believe higher intelligence can bring better finances which is true but what they need to understand is that they are only burdening themselves into their childs life. if the child loves education and learing than great but if your child is so so then dont pressure him to do great u must encourage him and support his decision. id rather have a child with a good personality than a child with intelligence just my opinion.
