Iran, from Cyrus to Khomeini and even beyond.

Sassanids were pretty cool, gotta agree with you on that one.

OP here

They're my favourite but really there's no period of iranian history I dislike. Even the periods of turkish dominion I find interesting, although in general a bit less.

>implying that they were the rulers of THE Empire
>>1722880
they weren't even the best rulers of the greek medieval kingdom
>>1722926
They were the most militarily and financially competent and they worked within their limits and didn't overextend themselves, unlike most of the other dynasties of the empire.

The Eastern Romans are one history's more boring, uninteresting civilizations imho
I'm personally more of a Angloboo myself
