The Brits made tea a craze in Pakistan and India too I believe I may be mistaken. @ Indian people do you guys still drink tea??

Tea plants are native to East and South Asia, and probably originated around the meeting points of the lands of northeast India, north Burma and southwest China.

Although there are tales of tea's first use as a beverage, no one is sure of its exact origins. The first recorded drinking of tea is in China, with the earliest records of tea consumption dating to the 10th century BC. It was already a common drink during the Qin Dynasty (third century BC) and became widely popular during the Tang Dynasty, when it was spread to Korea, Japan and possibly Vietnam, although when the Vietnamese began to drink tea is not recorded.

Yemanite got coffee from Ethiopians.

Chinese discovered the use of Tea. Brits also found wild tea plants in North-East India and tea became a major cash crop in India.

what???

so the most scientists at that so called Islamic golden age werent persian do you mean?

No, you guys had scientists but not all were Persian like I said (look up al andalus, it was the moorish/spanish scientists here who influenced most of Europe). Besides back then nobody referred to themselves by their ethnicity anyway. Example Muhammad al Bukhari was ethnically Uzbek but most of his works were compiled while he was in Persia so now by your logic that must mean his works only belong to the Persians?? I gave you examples of a scholar but you will probably find the same thing for scientists.

Yes, - the closest one i have had recently is called "Lebanese Dark Coffee" which was quite bitter. Do you know any recipe ?

The history of coffee goes at least as far back as the thirteenth century. The story of Kaldi, the 9th-century Ethiopian goat herder who discovered coffee while searching for his goats, did not appear in writing until 1671 and is probably apocryphal. From Ethiopia, coffee was said to have spread to Egypt and Yemen.

never heard of that so i decided to take a look.

Central Asia was Persian land which was later replaced by Turkic tribes.

Than I will make the argument that Persia was Islamic Abbasid land and his argument still does not apply. See we can go tit for tat all day, it will not make a difference.

By having this narrow mindedness n its mine n thats yours like small child fighting over toys with other kids.
Grow up to be a true representative of yr great nation.
When u come in a international forum like this where there r nationals of many countries u become an ambassator of yr nation here.Then whatever u will say or will believe negatively will give a bad name in front others abt yr people n nation.
Look at this guy KingMamba33 he is an american n knows very well that we Pakistanis hate them same way they do, but c how he approches to the different scenarious, how he handels the hostile situations here so well that he has earned respect from others here.
We may not agree at everything nor he does with us nor we but there is always a way to handle situtations not like start behaving like its mine not yrs or whatever............Just read my post plz then try to understand what is my point!!!!!
