most Arabs didn't give a shit about the Crusades until the early 20th century when it was brought back into their popular consciousness as a metaphor for British and French imperialism in the Middle East, the rise of Zionism, and the creation of Israel.

>>1721237

Turks will say Saladin, Rumi, Beybars, Timur, Ferdowsi, Al-Biruni, Ibn Taymiyya, Khalid ibn Walid, even the Prophet Mohammed himself were all Turks

Iranians will say they were all Iranians

Not sure if he was Persian but definitely ethnically Iranian. Again, historical revisionism and appropriation is something Kurds and Turks are very guilty of for varying different reasons in themselves.

To instantiate the Ottoman scientific contributions, two significant examples from astronomy and geography in the 16th century: the foundation of Istanbul Observatory and Taqi Al-Din's achievements therein, map making and mapmakers such as the famous sailors Piri Reis, Saydi Ali Reis and Macar Ali Reis. Another example is mathematician Ali Qushji from Samarkand, who wrote twelve volumes on mathematics.

>>1721278
Iranian posters were blocked from posting on /int/ after a few years because there was supposedly cyber attacks on 4chan (what I heard hearsay wise) and also because of death threats to people. Not that it really matters because since their so used to circumventing and going around the Islamic Republic's firewalls and filters in the first place that it makes it just a slight tedium for them from what I understand.

And then you have that one meme poster guy who became a huge laughing stock on /int/ from Iran.

To be fair they were too busy constantly trying to expand into Europe and hold Southern Europe or fight the Persians and Russians in the East and North to probably bother with academic endeavors but it is kind of unjustifiable to say in their peace times that stuff is the furthest extent of their pre-modern achievements in science.

Iranian Azeris refer to their language as "Tork", but only Azerbaijani Azeris get called "Torki", which is an insult and slang term for equating them with Turks as being "brutish" or "dim-witted". Outside of retaining their language in Iranian Azeribaijan and it being taught along side Persian, they don't believe in separatism at all and still view themselves as ethnically Iranian; which they are anyway.

Azeris make up over 1/4th of Iran's current population and are on otherwise completely equal footing with Persians in terms of prominence in the government, military, and cultural aspects of Iranian society.

Which is strange, given he refused Selim's terms and was able to recover most of the lost territory before the battle save eastern Anatolia lost to the Ottomans. Honestly, if Ismail hadn't died so young and the Qizilbash lack of discipline had been reined in, he could've permanently checked the eastern expansion of the Ottoman Empire.

Not really, Nader would have just ended up hamstrung and his abilities limited by an incompetent king. Worst case scenario he would be killed by the king to avoid that exact potential scenario, just like what happened to Surena and Khalid ibn Walid.

Someone as strong as Nader willingly taking orders from rulers as weak as the 1700s-era Safavids is pretty absurd.

Whoo boy, he was the Deng Xioping of 1800s Iran, or at least he could have been.

Within the span of 5 years he:

>Carried out all the border negotiations with the Ottoman Empire by himself, because the King was too busy fucking his harem and smoking opium to bother making deals

>Brought the smallpox vaccination to Iran

>Eliminated the public deficit of one million toman (this is in 1848, btw)

>Founded the first modern university in Iran

>Curbed the power of the clergy enough that he was able to bring Austrians in to the country to teach modern math, chemistry, medicine, etc.

Just like any nation with big claims, you have guys like this who were once told by their more retarded nationalist fathers that they were the first ones to spread something like cultures and civilization. As a Kurd myself I am really cringing when people make just claims like "HURR DURR HE WAS KURD" without even backing up that claim. I've read a lot about our origins and it's not something very easy to understand. Our origins history and the evolution to how a Kurd came to be is very complex, but that could be just about any people in the Middle-East and somewhere else.

There is also the claim of us being descendants of Medes. Here's a thorough explanation what the such possibilities are of us descending from them. Check link below.

They're really different.

>>1721691

Nope he was 100% Kurdish like his father and brother. Just because his brothers names were turan and tugtekin doesn't mean that they're automatically Turkish, kek what kind of roachlogic is this? Saladin is an Arabic name and his father's name is Ayoub so does this mean that they were Arab?

Here's a quote I copied from a forum:

Saladin was a Kurd of a Kurdish dynasty. He did not really come from a distinguished background, but his uncle Shirkuh served as a general under the Turkic Nur ad-Din, son of the infamous Zengi and thus a member of what we term the Zengid dynasty, a dynasty that rose to prominence from their positions as atabegs of Mosul and Aleppo. Shirkuh and Saladin however, were from what we term the Ayyubid dynasty, a Kurdish dynasty that gained power through their role as commanders of Kurdish heavy cavalry under Turkic generals like the Zengids.

>>1721737

You cannot really tell what a Turk is because they vary from region to region, of course if you go to East-Turkey (Northern Kurdistan region), you'll encounter Kurds. But try West to Central, North to South. You'll see that Turks really differ from skin tone to facial features.

You aren't related to Medes. Media-Atropatene was occupied when Kurds started showing up as an individual ethnic group in the late Parthian period. On top of that, we know next to NOTHING about the Median language outside of it and Old Persian sharing some loan words with one another.

In theory, yes he has some Arab genes but how long when did they recognize Rawadid as a Kurdish tribe? In the 10th century. Take note that they prolly were also mixed with other people during that time. Also Saladin was born in the 11th century, by that time the tribe was fully adopted as Kurdish. So that makes him Kurdish, but despite his roots, he still ruled as a muslim leader and not as a Kurdish one. No national tendencies on that guy for sure.

Aren't what's left of the Medes basically modern Iranian-Azeri's?

Since ancient Azeri was an iranian language that was similar to Persian but got gradually replaced with Turkic during the Ottoman/Safavid conflict period.
And the fact that 'Azerbaijan' is a turkic corruption of Atropatene.

>>1723427
Iranian Azerbaijan is the historical Azerbaijan aka Atropatene, the Republic of Azerbaijan is basically the Azeris who like you said had their language Turkified and erroneously believe that are Turkic themselves. But the geopgraphic location of their country does not confirm to the historical Atropatene at all.

Azeris may in fact have some relation to the Medes.

Some quotes I copied from wiki

Despite the Crusaders' slaughter when they originally conquered Jerusalem in 1099, Saladin granted amnesty and free passage to all common Catholics and even to the defeated Christian army, as long as they were able to pay the aforementioned ransom (the Greek Orthodox Christians were treated even better, because they often opposed the western Crusaders). An interesting view of Saladin and the world in which he lived is provided by Tariq Ali's novel The Book of Saladin.[113]

Notwithstanding the differences in beliefs, the Muslim Saladin was respected by Christian lords, Richard especially. Richard once praised Saladin as a great prince, saying that he was without doubt the greatest and most powerful leader in the Islamic world.[114] Saladin in turn stated that there was not a more honorable Christian lord than Richard. After the treaty, Saladin and Richard sent each other many gifts as tokens of respect but never met face to face. In April 1191, a Frankish woman's three-month-old baby had been stolen from her camp and sold on the market. The Franks urged her to approach Saladin herself with her grievance. According to Bahā' al-Dīn, Saladin used his own money to buy the child back:

He gave it to the mother and she took it; with tears streaming down her face, and hugged the baby to her chest. The people were watching her and weeping and I (Ibn Shaddad) was standing amongst them. She suckled it for some time and then Saladin ordered a horse to be fetched for her and she went back to camp.[115]

An example nowadays is how PKK captured Turkish soldier and treated the captives well despite the cause the Turkish soldiers were fighting for. Or another example is how YPG fighters treat ISIS-captives, very well treated and respected.

Aren't literally all those events to be (at least partially blamed) to alcohol? All the kings you mentioned (most iranian kings actually) were total drunkards.

>>1721362
The information panels in the Fin Gardens of Kashan (where he was murdered) told me that Amir Kabir's enemies got the king drunk and then made him sign the order of execution. When the king woke up sober the next morning he regreted his decision but it was too late.

I miss when wikipedia used to include a collage of headshots at the top of every ethnicity article.

>the Prophet Mohammed was Kurdish
>modern Muslims oppress and treat Kurds like shit

I see parallels with Christianity's treatment of Jews (or East Asian Buddhists' treatment of Indians)

>Iranians
What? Iranians were sheltering and protecting Christians like the Armenians and Assyrians from Turkic and Kurdish employed pogroms before and during World War I.

>>1727291

lol

Iranians killed a ton of Christians and Sunni Muslims throughout numerous dynasties.

The Safavid were notorious for religious persecution of both Sunni and Christians, as were the Ghorid of Christians, Jews, Buddhists, and Hindus.

You could go on and on.

Absolutely untrue.

Religious persecutation against Christians was encouraged by Jews in the Sassanid Empire as well as countermeasures against Christian persecution of Zurvanites, Zoroastrianism, and Mazdakites.

Also Abbas and Ismail were both very tolerant of Christians and actively used them in their government and military, so bullshit. Compared to the shit Arabs and Turks did, Persians are saints.

Hossein was however definitely the worst and most religious intolerant Safavid Shah though.
