Iraq used to be Babylon..and Iran used to be Persia. Or atleast..Im guessing it used to be Persia. Because I KNOW that Iraq used to be Babylon..and since the only other option you have there is Iran then I'll say Iran was Persia lol.
um. i just asked my mom and she said yes. so..Iran was Persia. Yay! :)

Iran mainly. The Persian Empire used to include Iraq, but whenever people think about Persia now they usually think of Iran.

OMG. I can't believe that you think that!!
I am only going to give you links and sites to your second part of your question.
The Persian Empire was a series of historical empires that ruled over the Iranian plateau, the old Persian homeland, and beyond in Western Asia, Central Asia and the Caucasus. The Persian empire has become what we know today as Persia or more commonly, Iran.
