Persia (Iran), along with China, India, and Rome (today Europe) were considered the later shinning civilizations of the ancient worlds before the middle ages. Majority of the world lived under Sassanid Persia Empire, Gupta India Empire, Han China Empire, and the Caesar Roman Empire. Even before the later centuries dynasties of the ancient world these civilizations were the center of the sciences, arts, military, culture ect. While nearly all of them fell they have time and time again in history made a comeback.
Today we can see that China and India are nations headed for prosperity in the near future, similar to ancient times. Their economies and standards of living are rising much faster than many parts of the world. The European Union (where the old Roman Empire stood) is doing very well right now having the largest economies and if considered a single unit, a superpower.
But Persia (Iran) has fallen behind quite a bit. They have actually been in decline for quite a while and it seems nothing is improving there. From Islamic nutters to their drive to challenge the world has lead them no where.
Why do you think Persia, one of the great ancient civilizations as well as a medieval civilization has declined so much over the years?
