The
Great Persian Empire (IRAN)
|
|
PERSIA:
"The earliest
evidence of humans in what is now Iran dates back about 100,000
years, when small hunter-gatherer groups formed a sparse population.
From about 38,000 to about 12,000 years ago, there were various
flint-working cultures in the area. By about 6000 BC, agricultural
villages were located over much of the Iranian Plateau. However,
most of the area did not progress into literate urban cultures,
such as those of the Indus Valley or Mesopotamia. The exception
was Elam, which-from about 2700 BC-had a federal government
with checks and balances and a complicated system by which
official power was inherited. The system lasted for more than
1,500 years before Elam was conquered by Babylon."
The
people inhabiting the region between Mesopotamia and the Indus
are a proud and dynamic folk with a strong sense of their
common heritage, even given that they derive from diverse
sources. An Indo-European people (their name for themselves,
"Irani", is simply the local pronunciation of "Aryan"),
they have been a major civilization for very long time, and
they have had a strong influence on the world at large, given
their position as a vital link between East and West.

An era of disunity
follows, as competing local dynasts established spheres of
influence from the 10th century onwards. From 900 to 999 the
dominant power in the region was Bokhara, under the Samanids.
From 1029 to 1194 the Seljuqs were supreme.

Another period of disunity, as remnants of the Hordes competed
with local dynasts for authority. This era ends with the sweep
of conquests by Timur Khan (known in Western Europe as Tamburlane).
