Abstract

Gold treasures and magnificent cities, jewels and masterpieces of classical poetry, the world's first national post, underground aqueducts, colorful carpets, fine silk fabrics, great scientific discoveries - all this is about Persia, a powerful ancient state whose army intimidated even the mighty Rome. This was the land of the wise men who stored and multiplied the achievements of ancient scientists, and the land of brilliant poets who conveyed deep meanings in a beautiful and graceful way.

This country played one of the key roles in the contemporary history, since the future of humanity during the World War II was determined not only on the battlefields in Europe but also during the negotiations in Tehran.

This book contains a fascinating description of major events and prominent people of Iran from ancient times to the present day.
