Iranian Nomatic Style- The Beautiful Iranian Traditional Clothing..
Iran, a Middle Eastern/Central Asian country south of the Caspian Sea and north of the Persian Gulf, is three times the size of Arizona. It shares borders with Iraq, Turkey, Azerbaijan, Turkmenistan, Armenia, Afghanistan, and Pakistan.

Approximately 75-80% of Iran's peoples speak Iranian languages.The major groups in this category include Persians, Kurds, Gilakis, Mazandaranis, Pashtuns, Lurs, and Baluchis. Turkic speakers, such as the Azeri, Turkmen, and the Qashqai peoples, comprise a substantial minority. The remainder are primarily Semitics such as Arabs and Assyrians or other Indo-Europeans such as Armenians. There are also small communities of Brahui in southeastern Iran. The Georgian language is spoken only by those Iranian Georgians that live in Fereydan and Fereydunshahr. All other communities of Iranian Georgians in Iran have already lost their language. It is thought that Chechen people also live as an ethnic group in Iran (a.k.a. Iranian Chechens).

  • Georgians were of Iranic peoples before their migration via the Saga (Scythians) and their branch the ossetians. i believe that it is Georgia which speaks Ossetian, and Ossetian is an Iranic language. They are also known to call themselves "Ironi" variation on the term Irani refering to Iranian Airiyan.

  • @yashil17 yes also the word "Irooni" also makes sense in Persian we say dokhtar Irooni :D

  • It's so hard and so pleasant for me, as a Georgian. I'm proud of these Georgians who were resettled centuries ago but did not lose their identity.

  • @justiceoverpeace and i love goergians of Iran although i have not seen any yet in real life but i like the diversity and i love different ethnics and algnauges in my country and i would never ever want these people to lose their langauge or culture :-) I think Iran is beautiful with having georgians practicing their own culture armenians persians kurds azeris etc etc but at the same time be Irani too :)

  • @RahmaaDk No, the clothes from 0:19 to 0:29 also the ones in 3:09 and 3:41 are all Turkmen traditional clothes. There are many ethnic groups living in Iran such as Farsis, Kurds who are Iranic and Azeris, Qashqais, Turkmens who are Turkic. The theme song is in Farsi.

  • love you
