The Persian Empire and Iran 2000 years

History is told by the victors. In this case, the Greeks and the Romans.

There’s a feud between Iran and the West that’s spanned coups, sanctions, and standoffs. But it didn’t start in 1979, or with Mossadegh, or even with modern Iran. It goes back over 2000 years - to the Persian Empire. That’s where we find one of the oldest stories ever told - the battle of good vs. evil, of freedom vs tyranny. This origin story helps us understand what has been unfolding for the past century, continuing into today.
