I lived there for three years as a young boy. The country is rich with history, about 6,000 years of it. Iran, and a portion of Iraq, are largely Shia follows of the Islamic religion. The story of the Shia is extremely interesting and understanding this history is key to current events in the region. Many think of the Iranian people as backwards or uneducated but that is simply not true. I highly recommend those interested in the topic to study the early history of Islam. I just wish Hollywood would do an unbias major documentary on the topic....properly done it would be one of the greatest movies of all time. A good book on the subject is The Shia Revival. The Shia Revival is a penetrating historical account of sectarian conflicts in the Muslim world, showing that the future rests in finding a peaceful solution to the ancient rivalries between the Shias and the Sunnis.

I know a lot especially Shiraz and Kish Island it has a beautiful senery and allows you to experience the four seasons in a one season. nvertheless. not to mention some people have a major shortcoming i mean some of them are uncivilized moreover untrustworthy air is pollution it's hard to go across the streets as the streets are always overflow by cars. even so the north of the country is quite beautiful once you get there is like being in paradise. it's my country and i still haven't seen many parts of it since i'ts a big country.

They have a total fruit-loop for a president.
I also think that Hitler hid out there after the war. Iranians LOVE Hitler.
