  • I have known many dynasties and empires, they are famous because of the killings and slavery( i will not name them) but Cyrus who had created an empire, a conqueror, a liberator, a just law giver, i was surprised his tomb was very simple without decorations, a humble king with humble beginnings. I guess the prophet Ezra knew about this. No, the Achaemenids are not forgotten, they are always remembered as stories in the Bible even in the Koran.....

  • Now this is stupid, any reason to think they didnt rule over what we call saudi arabia? Of course not.

  • @ERIK000000000 The reason they didn't rule over "Saudi Arabia" is simply because it is inhabitable and has no life in it neither so it was pretty much worthless,however they did rule the coasts and outlines of the dirty Arab country because that has only some life and only a few resources inside it

  • Thumbs up for this wonderfully narrated visual narrative of a lost history and nation. Bravo!

  • Cool , I was not aware of such history with the Persians, Awesome!.

  • This has inspired me to make a video for Achaemenid Persia, thank you.

  • i hope we can one day introduce real iran to the whole world.... Zendeh bad iran

  • @GreenPersion Persians were Aryans, Yes iran is modern days persia but iranians are not persians! iranians are people from muslims invasions. Real persians are modern days eropeans and russians as we are Aryans

  • @KevDxB Europeans are not Aryans. Hitler hijacked the term. Arya In Sanskrit means noble. The real Aryans still are Iranians though mixed with Arabs and Turkic people. Also Afghanistan is majority Aryan and some parts of Pakistan and India. Go read some history Aryans were never Europeans and will never be.

  • همه نفرینهای آفرینش به روح و روان سلمان فارسی خائن و شاگرد ننگینش محمد تازی

  • Nice video.

    But forgotten?

    I think not ...

  • just wow ..nice commented

  • The content of the video isn't bad, but the voiceover is amateurish. 

  • who said they are forgotten you stupid fuck? not as popular as the roman empire because you live in the west, and romans are cosidered "west" and persians are "east" i guess. If they were forgotten, we wouldn't know anything about them know

  • the hidden history ..

  • Comment removed

  • I like to eat sandwiches to the music at the beginning.

  • We Persians are NOT from some camel desert; we are from the area between the Black and Caspian Seas known as Caucasia(I think that is how you spell it...). The group of these people are called "Aryans" and they split into 3 groups: 1 went to Germany and spread all around Europe; 1 went to Iran and spread to become Persians; the final group went into Northern India where a few of them are left today.

  • We Iranian love the civilized and great greeks.

  • Very nicely done! Usually the only story about ancient Persia that is told in the West, whether in film or books, is Alexander defeating Darius. So it's an eyeopener to hear about the rest of Persian history.

  • Persia is DEAD !!!

    Iran is just a small shadow of Persia and a third world country

  • @qwertdfsf7 your mom is dead. iran is a 2nd world country btw

  • @ThePersianGangsta Iran is a 2nd world country, just like the US. 1 out of 6 US citizens live in 3rd world conditions and 2 out of 6 in 2nd world. Only half live in 1st world. Do the math with averaging. 3+2+2+1+1+1=10 10/6 = 1.66666... Or something like that. 1.6666666... is rounded to 2. The US is a 2nd world country as well.

  • @qwertdfsf7 Persia is very much alive, man. Iran is an awesome place but their GOVERNMENT stinks. What you hear on the news is not always true, Mister. P.S. Iran is a 2nd world country, just like the US. 1 out of 6 US citizens live in 3rd world conditions and 2 out of 6 in 2nd world. Only half live in 1st world. Do the math with averaging. 3+2+2+1+1+1=10 10/6 = 1.66666... Or something like that. 1.6666666... is rounded to 2. The US is a 2nd world country as well.

  • Beautiful video. I'm Scottish and very interested in Persia. Long live Iran and Iranians!

  • Why does Iranian history always begin with saying Achaemenid were the first dynasty? What about the Medes? It was they who built what is known as greater Iran and were the first dynasty of Greater Iran. Also I love Persians and all, but the Parthians were not Persians.  Parthians came from NE and spoke a NW dialect.

  • @Garudaa Um, Parthians are still part of Greater Persia. Plus, there was a dynasty that ruled from about 320 BCE to 220 BCE. One of Alexander's generals married a Persian girl and after Alex died, he took over like 80% of Alexander's empire and named it the Seleucid Empire. Greek was the language of professional businessman and the government, but it was run by Persians and some Greeks. Persian history begins in 3500 BCE with the Elamites. In SW Iran they built the old civilization ever.

  • Wow. this is cool! But you left out when the persians invaded greece several times... Under darius I and xerxes.

    But cool video, Thanks it helped me. I was just wondering about when persia invaded greece.

  • @mcfrandy They invaded but they always failed to conquer Greece

  • @qwertdfsf7

    which part of you is Greek?

    Greek lacking self-esteem? interesting.

    next time consult a historian and don't get excited with 300 and McDonalds.

  • @fasstteks019 One of my dreams is to visit your country.....in an attempt to see your great civilization,your great history.

    In history there were allways conflicts and wars between civilizations and especially between the great civilizations like the greek and the persian.

    Many greetings from Greece to the great civilization of Persia

  • @uboot1967 Hello Bro thanks for all your kind comments but don't go to Iran know, we have to clean it first!!! But if you know some peoples that's ok specially at the middel of spring, how ever we'er not like this before!!Regards Dariush

  • @uboot1967 Hello Bro thanks for all your kind comments but don't go to Iran now, we have to clean it first!!! But if you know some peoples that's ok specially at the middel of spring, how ever we'er not like this before!!Regards Dariush

  • @mcfrandy Oh, thanks for asking! I can answer that. We invaded Greece(sorry Greeks!) from about 520-480 BCE in long raids and battles. The Greeks kicked the Persian army out and slowly kicked them out of whatever territory the Empire had in SE Europe slowly.

  • I as well enjoyed it. The 'nomadic tribes' being united = wtf? True?

  • who said it was forgotten?

  • go fuck urself buddy

  • drown[CORRECTION]

  • Wow... the hated Greeks portray that hate towards the best of the best PERSIANS.... go to hell whomever that cant see that Persians rule and always ruled.... stop hating and start loving...

  • @Kittykattkute who is the best of the best?..THIS IS WHAT YOU THINK THAT THE BARBARIAN PERSIANS ARE THE BEST OF THE BEST?....You mast be dreaming!!!!!Behave!!!!

  • you cannot start a discussion if you have got your information secundarily or from mouth to mouth..so you automatically rely on western filosie and or media influence..sucker WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU KNOW YOU DONT"T KNOW SHIT

    THE TRUTH IS THAT THE PERSIANS CREATED AND EMPIRE IN THE MOST EFFICIENT AND HONORABLE ADMINISTRATION. THE TRUE MEANING OF LIBERAL AND LOOK AT THE NUMBERS MAN THOUSANDS OF YEARS AGO. SINCE YOU GUYS TOOK OVER EVERYTHING CHANGED AND YOU KNOW IT. DON'T TELL ME YOU DON'T KNOW.

  • Nixter, you need to see the doctor.

  • You are the one that needs a doctor!!

    The barbarian Persians had no right to burn the cradle of civilization!!...!Fools they thought they could put up with the Greeks!!!...Their asses were kicked out of Greece,and the world was saved from their barbarism!!!

    Alexandros did good to burn their city!!!The barbarians received a great lesson!

  • You have no clue and are not educated and aware of the facts, therefore taking you serious would be unwise. Allow me to say that you sir, are an idiot.

  • @CyrusReborn You are an idiot,and an ignorant!!!!wake up and see what you really are!!!!!Barbarian!!!!

  • Shut your mouth. The educated historian of the west worship the document Cyrus left behind. The first dcleration of human rights! It's in a museum in London. You are probably a pedophile arab, You know where your document, the word of allah belongs in the west? In the toilet, because it's a piece of shit. Burning it is also a good choise :) go kill yourself jelous disgusting barbarian arab.

  • @CyrusReborn Solon's laws were inscribed on large wooden slabs or cylinders attached to a series of axles that stood upright in the Prytaneum. These axones appear to have operated on the same principle as a Lazy Susan, allowing both convenient storage and ease of access. Originally the axones recorded laws enacted by Draco in the late 7th Century (traditionally 621BC) WAY BEFORE CYRUS!!!

  • The burning of Persepolis was instigated by an Athenian whore in Alexander's entourage during a drunken orgy. She detested the Persians, as did all Athenians, for the burning of their city. It does not signify 'anti-Persian' hatred to any extend.

  • alexander the great respected persians except what they did in persepolis...

    it was a respond... revenge... of what they did to Athens ....

  • What does Hermes have to do with the Achaemenids man? You're ranting again.

  • He was the GOD messenger,thousands of years before the Persians even existed!

  • I apologize, 40,000 miles of fucking road not 400,000

  • If you hang with anyone other than the Devil, you'd know these basic historic facts.

  • And desist from your bitching about Persians. What's your beef anyway? You should be ashamed, ESPECIALLY if you're Greek.

  • Ashamed it should be your game!!!!..Since you are Greek and you distort history!!!..SHAME ON YOU!!!

  • The Persians were the inheritors of this great tradition after Sumerians, Akkadians, Babylonians, Assyrians, etc. While they drew of this preexisting knowledge, they adapted it to their own needs, as happens with most cultures thus creating a unique cultural blend that certainly has a place in history along with all other great civilizations (Chinese, Greek, Roman, Inca, etc)

  • Persepolis date from around 515 BC. knossos great palace was built gradually between 1700 and 1400 BC, with periodic rebuildings after destruction. Structures preceded it on Kephala hill. oldest the greatest than Persepolis!

  • And, since we should never ignore the greater picture, Persians did not exist in a vacuum. If we assume Parsa to be the heartland of Persians (Khorasan or a little northern the heartland of the Medes?) then the area had been subject to a number of great civilizations since the Sumerians in 4000 BCE, all of which exhibit centralized administration and monumental architecture.

  • The Medes derived their name from the notorious sorceress, Medea, after she fled Greece and settled in Asia Minor; the Assyrians ruled most of western and central Asia for approximately five hundred years (1229-709 BCE) and were finally deposed by the Medes.,,,Medes were of Greek descent!!!!

  • Architecturaly too, Persepolis represents one of the marvels of the ancient world, even AFTER Alexander burned it down. The Empire rich as it was had the resources to get the best in material and workers so quality of architecture and relief carving are superb.

  • Postal service ,,,,,700 b.c.Ancient Greece Silver Diobol Chalkis Euboia.

  • You insane lunatic, what does the diobol (ancient Euboean coin) have to do with the Achaemenid Royal postal service? See the doctor, NOW!!!

  • . Messengers (spondorophoroi) went from city to city announcing the date of the competitions. They called for all wars to be halted before, during and after the Games in order to enable the athletes, as well as the spectators....and that's way before your Persians!..You also forgot in marathon the greatest of all, Pheidippides .

  • Alexandros did good to burn it!!!!..Since the barbarians from Persia had burned the sacred city of Athens!!!

  • Well, apparently Alexander himself did not consider them 'barbarian' at all: he took the title of 'King of Kings' (Shahanshah), adopted Persian dress and court manners, MARRIED a Persian, and forced all of this officers to MARRY Persians. You probably have some of that blood in you, if, unfortunately for the rest of us, do come from you say you do.

  • The reason Alexander and his soldiers, marry Persian women,is just that!!!..To bring them out of BARBARISM!!!

  • And at a time when the Romans where herding pigs on their fortified hillock upon the Tiber, Achaemenid Persia had the first organized highway system that facilitated communications and movement of troops. Persians also invented the first "royal mail' service, something like the Pony Express in the American Wes. It took a Royal messenger only 6 days to go Miletus-Persepolis, regularly changing horses at the frequent outposts along the way.

  • Ancient Cretan stone road since 2500 b.c., The History of Roads (Sinfonie der Strasse), At about this time the Minoans on the island of Crete built a 30-mile (50-kilometre) road from Gortyna on the south coast over the mountains at an elevation of about 4,300 feet to Knossos on the north coast. Constructed of layers of stone, the roadway took account of the necessity of drainage by a crown throughout its length and even gutters along certain sections.

  • Remains of food and burnt offerings dating back to the 10th century BC give evidence of a long history of religious activity at the site. high ways, No buildings have survived from this earliest period of use.Also, the chared remains of a Homo Heidelbergensis body were found at Olympia.

  • Panilithio kai anistorito vlima nixter, we are not talking about roadways for drainage. READ before you open your abysmal cesspool of ignorance that happens to resemble a human mouth. We are talking about approx. 400,000 miles of fucking road, a HUGE investment of resources in its production and upkeep. The Minoans are the Minoans, panilithie, and the Persians are the Persians.

  • the Minoans on the island of Crete built a 30-mile (50-kilometre) road from Gortyna on the south coast over the mountains at an elevation of about 4,300 feet (1,300 metres) to Knossos on the north coast. Constructed of layers of stone, the roadway took account of the necessity of drainage by a crown throughout its length and even gutters along certain sections.

  • ...That's more than 1000 years before the Persians ...idiot!!!...This is what counts!!!...They taught the Persians!!!

  • In my opinion, one of the biggest contributions of ancient Persia is the philosophy of Zoroastrianism which laid the basis for the FIRST monotheistic religion. You think Jews invented it? Look again. It is ancient ancient Persia and her religion that influenced Hebrews, Platonic and Gnostic thought, and, ultimately, Christianity and Islam.

  • As far as the achievements of Achaemenid Persia, like I've said, read any scholarly unbiased book and you'll find out. Too big of a topic for youtube.

  • Wonderful video! I'm writing a novel about Achaemenid Persia, and I'm constantly struck by how modern their attitudes towards women and religion were.

  • morde an ast ke namash be nekooi nabarand cyrus lives in our hearts and will live for ever

  • We greeks,we love the iranian people and the great iranian civilization!!!!!!!

  • we love you too :-)

  • @uboot1967 you must not have seen 300

  • @chitownzfinesthustla 300 is a piece of garbage, man. Please stop insulting my Greek brothers. It was all in the past and those were wild days when our ancestors wanted to have some rough fun.

  • @EinsteinxtremeRoblox um yes the movie but the true story 300 spartans with tenthousand greeks destroyed nearly 25thousand persians in demoralized nearly 1million 950thousand persians so yeah

  • @chitownzfinesthustla Actually, it was about 6,000 Greeks vs. 10,000 Persians. And the Persians crushed the Greeks. Please read more and learn about this interesting piece of history.

  • @EinsteinxtremeRoblox nope modern historians no for a fact it was sumwhere between 1million and 2million persians in yep they won the battle not because of millitary might but because of betrayal so your dumb idiot it wouldnt be a historic batle if persian forces were so small idiot just quit it persia got owned by greece twice

  • @chitownzfinesthustla Look, you can barely even spell, so why should I trust you? Anyway, the Persians had nowhere NEAR 2-3 million troops. Those 10,000 Persians were hired Greeks that were paid by the King of Persia. The war was actually Greeks vs. Greeks. Please just shut the hell up and don't talk to me.

  • @EinsteinxtremeRoblox so your saying every fucking historian in the world sum how forgot to mention that or even acknowledge it yet sum random idiot on the internet knows all about it right?1 lol your dumb

  • @chitownzfinesthustla

    Shut up stupid gayreek

  • @persianiranforever towel head

  • @chitownzfinesthustla dude that is a hollywood movie! we're talking about history, there's a difference. you should learn to read and not watch!

  • @gorgealaki um battle of thermopylae idiot look it yp the movie 300hundreds wasnt completely accurate but it was close 300 spartans and 7thousand greeks held the thermopylae pass untill the last men historians believe that itwas 2million persians in the persian army at the time of the battle in it is belive that the spartans and fellow greek forces killed 25thousand persian troops before they were finally killed

  • @chitownzfinesthustla Herodotus, who is actually a poet rather than a historian says the Persian army consisted of 800,000 troops, which is according to modern historians still impossible because Thermopilae can hardly bare within itself 80,000 troops! plus, it is logestically impossible even for today's American army to transmit 800,000 troops from Persepolis to Thermopilae on the ground, and who did you say counted the number of the casualties?

  • Comment removed

  • @gorgealaki the historians havr estimated that numbr of casualties and dude whats your problem 80thousand or 2million the fact is 3hundred plus 7thousand greeks held off and demoralized the greatest emppire of that time and singlehandley turned the tide against persia to the point were they brought persia to its knees

  • @chitownzfinesthustla I'm afraid I have to let you down on that too. the fact of the matter is, the Persian king did not really take greeks that seriously and the whole Persian army was in celebration throughout defating the greeks; only when the king really decided to defeat them he called upon the Immortals and they did it i less than a day. it is called reality. get over it

  • @gorgealaki thats y they had to flank right? using a secret pass bitch stfu have yu forgetton in the end persia still got there asses whooped by the greeks and who cares if they didnt take them seriously alexander conquered them for good bitch hahahaaaaa

  • women rights r good but women now have less rights now

  • Why is the Achaemenid Empire "forgotten"? It is not forgotten to anyone who cares to look. Long live the achievements of the ancient Persian civilization! Greetings from ATHENS and from a GREEK to my long-lost genetic and linguistic brothers!

  • WHAT ARE THE ACHIEVEMENTS of the Persian "civilization?"

  • Fan va söt du är...

  • PERSEYS,was a king!!!!He built also MYCENAE in GREECE!!!,,,MYCENAE IS THERE!!!

    Do YOU have a story to tell us how the Persian came to be?I DARE YOU TO TELL ME!!!

  • This message is message is for Naraku11 and the person that created the video.

    Naraku, the persian empire was ALWAYS controlled by IRANIANS. Parthians (which are also iranian, just from the north)were the furthest from iranian that the empires control consisted of. Everyone within the empire was considered persian, even greeks and africans.

    To the maker of the video, u should talk about his charter of human rights (amongst a million other great feats), not gardens.

    Ahura Mazda be with you.

  • persians had their own religion also.. they werent muslim..

  • thanks, it was really good, would like to see more, good work

  • Perseus and Andromeda had seven sons: Perses, Perseides, Alcaeus, Heleus, Mestor, Sthenelus, Electryon and Cynurus, and two daughters, Gorgophone ("Gorgon Killer") and Autochthoe ("Born in the Land"). Perses was left in Aethiopia and became an ancestor of the emperors of Persia.

  • JUST TO LEARN THE TRUTH!

  • You mean you are stupid enough to think that Greek gods are for real in this day and age ?!

    This is 21 st centrury - wake up and smell the coffee buddy ...

    Alexander died at age 35 after 4 months of shear pain and depression from his wounds that his own army inflicted on him and he thought he was son of Zeus: some sun of the king of Greek gods he was, dying so fast and painfully.

  • First of all ...ignorant Alexander died 33 years old!!! June 11, 323 BC, Alexander died in the palace of Nebuchadnezzar II of Babylon. He was just one month short of attaining 33 years of age. Various theories have been proposed for the cause of his death which include poisoning by the sons of Antipater .

  • after alaxander destroyed them all how inhumane and selfish mofo

  • A great work ! Well done & thank You!

  • I believe Cyrus is mentioned in the Holy Quran on Sura 18.83 as Dhul-Qarnayn. The Quranic description of Dhul-Qarnayn's east and west empire matches Cyrus. And in the Quran, Dhul-Qarnayn was a God-fearing man.

  • The greatest destruction didn't come through Greeks over Persia but through Arabs hundreds years later.

  • lol? in the ancient times there were 4 empires that are actualy known as the 4 great empires- Assyrian- Babylonian- Egyptian and the Hittite empire

    you cant forget to mention those empires even median empire

  • those empires was there before the persian empire then the persians came and took over everything

  • before the persians came

    the hittite were already gone

    the assyrians were beating by the medians

    then the medians united with the persians and took over egyptians and babylonians

    therefore

    persians only qonquared 2 of those main 4 empires(with the help of medians)
