The Hendis are coming

Why not Afghanistan? your origin is in there.
Balkh

That's just one theory. Just like the Kurd Zagros mountains one. And that too about Zarathushtra alone. His birth and early years.

Plus it's a bit more excitement than genteel old Parsis could handle methinks

Uncultured junglis make the worst tourists.

Especially when they stay on and don't go back.

Well said. Iran is a wonderful country, I have always felt at home there, great people, great country.

it's only 5 cities

9 cities to be exact
or even more (if taken smaller cities as towns..)

Would love to visit Iran for natural landscape beauty. I'm sure the cities are nice, but I personally love nature. I would also like to visit Shiraz for their gardens. In my family, keeping a well maintained garden is very important. Also in Pakistan, this concept exists in my city for parks.

Out of the places listed, I recognised 9. How does that rate for an overall noob?

I recognized seven cities/places : Tehran, Shiraz, Persepolis, Yazd, Isfahan, Hamadan, Mashad.

Never been to Iran. But I do wish to.

Parsis should make peace with the idea that their time is soon to come to a close. The people won't allow a.return to Zoroastrianism.

Doesn't matter. We are and have never been about numbers.

There are 60 million Persians.

There are 40 million Kurds.

Its not really a choice. Nor are we waiting, sitting around, to die out.

Do you have a transcript of the Indo Iranian part of the Raisinia forum? I would love to read.

You can watch on the website links if you have issues with videos then i will try to provide one in free time.

Raisina Forum seems inspired by the Valdai Club.

And what is Tony B'liar doing there ??

There are 4 star Generals, Previous presidents , ministers , UN delegates , USA Indo-pacific command general and many more. What they are doing there is a question to emphasize upon.

Maybe looking for 3rd wheel or trying to revive the ancient one.
