Kind of funny how you've distorted history....
Never humiliated?
Six-Day War - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia , which is more of a humiliation than a war fought more than a thousand years ago.
Also there is
Battle of Tours - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia , and quite a few other losses.
Empires come and go, whether its a Persian empire,Arabic/Islamic Empire, British Empire, Mongol Empire, Roman Empire etc.
Never conquered?
Achaemenid Arabia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Seleucids
Parthian Arabia.
Sassanid Arabia,
Also, the Great Seljuk Empire ruled Arabia.
The Ottoman empire did.
And i could go on and on.
If you read up on history, you'll notice that the Persians ruled the Arabs a whole lot longer than the Arabs ruled the Persians.
Also, if you read up on history, you'll notice that there weren't anything of worth in most of the Arabian peninsula to conquer...Just as there wasn't in the Sahara..not until the discovery of oil and of course the rise of Islam . Yemen, Bahrain, Oman, South of the Arabian peninsula, also some parts of the north,some of the west and east coast....Those were the only places worth conquering. And they were ruled, By Turks, Romans, Persians, etc etc.
No doubt about what you said of Arabs going to Persia and bringing Islam there and all, and congratulations on defeating an empire more than 1000 years ago, that had been at war with the Byzantine and the Romans for more than 700 years, which left it weak and vulnerable. Also nice of you to take a lot of its culture, architecture, policies, administrative practices of that land and use it as your own. No need to say thanks, but nice when scholars read up on history and say that Arabic culture, or Islamic culture is actually HEAVILY influenced by Persian culture.And of course, the Persian culture was also influenced by the Arabs/Muslims(I'm writing Muslim because it was an Islamic empire/dynasty, not an Arab one. But Islam was of course founded in Arabia) But the Arabs were a lot more Persianized than the Persians were Arabized.
Most people don't even know that the Sassanids actually prevented the Christianization of Arabia.
This isn't about who is superior or whatever it is that you guys always fight about whenever there is a subject involving Arabs and Iranians...but i do like historical accuracy, Hence why i wanted to comment on what you said of Arabs or Saudi Arabia never being conquered, humiliated, ruled over etc, I don't even think there is a country in the world that hasn't been.
Couldn't make up my mind on which quote to use from Arabic scholars talking about how the Persians influenced the Arabs, and Islam, because there are so many.
Hmmm, I'll end it with that one quote from an Abbasid caliph,
Al-Ma'mun,
Sort of funny how nowadays, more than a thousand years after that caliph said that.....the Saudis still rely on others, but now its the westerners, not the Persians. And the Iranians still don't need them or anyone else.
