The islamic golden age is starting to repeat it self in Iran, my wife (she is Iranian) talks my head off with all the Iranian contributions and so on, Is it not true that most of the scientific and mathes and so on contribution were made by the persians? i am not very knowledgeable about the contribution of saudi arabia to that, but you need to know that you will only repeat the islamic golden age if your people have the desire to do so.
