Your king lost his "kingdom". We romans destroyed your capital Ctesiphon.
I have a question, why is it that my ancestors again and again marched into persia, Destroyed your big cities and took thousands of slaves. And you never managed to come even close to Rome?
Whats the reason for that?
Persia was based on many ways on slavery. It had no free people. All were slaves of a god king.
I dont denie you had some great art and culture but lacked science. Persia was build on mysticism. While our ancestors depended on science and engineering.
The ersult was, that the persian army was bad equipped. No armor and bad metal swords.
In the end it was our ancestors who won a fair fight. I respect persia for being the first great empire that spanned many people. The transportation system was very good.
Your troops depended on mass and had no metal shields.
Also greece was only our predecessors. I´m roman.
The fight between our empire and the persian empire was bad for both sides. But for your side it ended worse than for us.
Both got weakened. But we were able to survive and protect us. You were weakened to a state where you got conquered from desert nomads. I see this as tragic.
I believe we should have helped you back then.
Your king Yazdgerd send letters to Rome / Constantinopolis, asking for help. But was ignored.
I see that as mistake. If our empires would have cooperated we could have saved you.
He said americans. Mayans are americans.
Persia was an empire and no civilisation. It did not push an idea on its subjects. It wasnt a civilisation like rome with civilian rights and a nation identity.
When Persia was an Empire, Rome was a little Hilltop Town.
Persia had over 100 Capitals Cities, Many got Raided, Invaded and Retaken.
Our Iranic/Aryan Region of ELAM/MEDIS/Messipotomia is Considered the CRADLE of Civilization in Human History.
We Wrote the First Bill of Human Rights when your ancestors lived in Caves.
What do you know about Civilization You Denialist? Bible, Torah and HISTORY All Speaks Volumes of our Glory and when we ABOLISHED Slavery in Babylon, Greeks Inherited their Women and Sold them, While Arabs Burred them Alive.
At its Height 1st Persian Empire was still Larger(9000SKM) then Rome(8000SKM) some 500 years later
Persia had more then 5 Empires.. Last one was in the 1700's under King Nader Shah.
Rome? Greece? Nothing after Islamic Empires got them a thousand years ago. You Ceased to Exist.
Sassanian Kings as Shahpur I would regularly Humiliate Arab and Roman Kings,
Romes Lord, Velerian was used as a SLAVE, Crasus and His Son had Gold Poured down their throats, Phillipe the Arab and your Ancestors were made to BOW to our Feet.
Rome? Rome was Much Weaker then Greece, and Greeks were Srrapy of Persia for 300 Years (including Sparta, whom helped Persia Invade Athens and Burn it down)
Rome got Crushed Many Times By Persia, Then Arabs and Finally Killed off by Turks(Ottoman Empire Conqured the Byzentines),
Macedonian Greek, Alexander was Killed off by Parthian Shorts (Parting Shots in English Terms) and
had written to his mother a letter even present in the British Musium today that states
"You my mother have brought one alexzander into this world, but in this land every man is equal to an Alexander" - Alexander the Great before his death on his Failed Conquest of Persia,Thats how superior we are to you kind.
After that Greeks were taken as Slaves by Both Persian and Roman Empires.
The Battle of Carrhae was fought in 53 BC, Roman's Crassus Tried to Invade Persia with 60,000 Solders, Got Killed with His son and had MOLTEN GOLD Poured down his throat, All by just 10,000 Persian Solders led by GENERAL SURENA, You Eneded up Losing 25% of Roman Terrotory after that Truce Pack was broken.
3rd Persian Empire would often CAPTURE ROMAN KINGS or GENERALS and Used them as Personal Servents and ONE Such Roman King as a Servents and Footstool for our king,
Among the most notable events of his reign was the decisive defeat of the Romans at the infamous Battle of Edessa,
where the Roman army was defeated and captured in its entirety, including the Roman Emperor, Valerian.
Our Contributions are unmatched, Father of Modern Medicine(Ibn Sinna), to the Father of Computing (Al Gorithimi)to Even the pants you ware to the beer you drink to the ice cream kept in the friedge in your house.
Rome on the other hand, a Mediterranean civilization, Fell on its own many more, Went to Conqure Barbarians in Europe (Yes, Treetop Monkeys is how ROman Generals Diaries Describe the English Ilses)...Because you couldnt fight a Real Empire or Army, You Took in the Greeks by Suprise and destroyed their intelectual's.
@MarkusS
Now, I dont know whats wrong with you but there are a few things I want you to get through your head, I hate islamic Immigration as much as you do, I dont like mass migration, but this is Man made mass migration if to uproot both sides of people, its not normal... its may not be from your wars but is it from WARS of the west WHOM you are defending, and for a refugee to seek refuge (not impose his ways but seek shelter while preserving what is his) does not have to do things he finds amoral.
Now..I have a very good Italian friend from the north of Italy, who knows his history, and I have had quite a number of German "GF's" to put it in a mellow tone... if that changes anything as well as a good friend who's still around. So as someone whos with a few of your typical German Backpacking Girls a year & having been with a few Italian ones. Your women speak of your men as weak and pathetic, All thanks to this equality, acceptance and feminist nonsense propaganda, and to your own credit, your women are whores, Who jump every random C*^%^ in every exotic destination, get pumped and dumped and later some Beta male garbage propaganda as your self will go pick them to be their provider for something more after me and ten other guys are done with them. I mean your women cant even name their baby dadies, and you wanted some muslim girls to go swim in the pool? Wasn't it? Get it through your head..See this is your NORM, and We dont want to make this OUR NORM. You dont give up superior culture for a Jewish Zionist imposed one that europeans think is their own. Most dont, your type of Hasbara Free Agents and Tools do, And if you dont watch that mouth of yours making it a mouth piece of NATO, tomorrow Berlin may be repeated by us in all your nations.

here. archaeologists say cyrus was a despot. he pushed the middle east into 30 years war. demanded that his slaves kiss his feet. he pushed heavy taxes on evryone. those who did not agree got their noses and ears cut off. he buried people alive. ect
The German Feminist and Jewish Zionist PRopaganda and Paid for Anti Islamic Propaganda Spegel...?? My German friend laughs at this site, last time it was promoting some westernized muslim girls sluttery under pretex of freedom more like beta male run whoredom thanks to israel...
that cylinder is considered a propaganda hoax. Cyrus was a slave holder like evry other persisn king as well. Why you think the egyptians praised the greeks as they kicked the persians out of egypt? persians behaved horrible in egypt. Even killed the holy apis bulls. And yes, a gaul or german could get roman citizn rights. The guard of the roman emperor was moszly made up from germans later on.
As I said... Its too bad, Historians with Disagree, You are in DENIAL
We'll listen to historians, intellectuals with degrees and recorded facts, rather then some scmuck two bit garbage as you in the internet who thinks the moon is made out of cheese.
