Pakistan and ancient Persian empires

In all your post you insult Indians, saying how they were to smelly for Alexander the great to invade, and  Hindus worship cow Gods and Idols which is the reason people laugh at them.

Now you also boast about  the area known as Pakistan being part of the Persian empre at certain times, and this is a little known fact.

Well,  cough, "genius" Pakistan was only created 60 years ago,  before then it was part of India, and that is what Alexander the great refers to it as, while the Persians call it the land of the Hindus.

Put that in your pipe and smoke it.

Dont try to bate me because i will not bother replying to you again. Better things to do

 

 

Yes, that's true, though Pakistan does contain the greatest number of Afghans in the world.

 

The freedom fighters I agree on. In fact, I do admire them irrespective of nationality. But Pakistan was not a part of India before the 18th century. India(modern sense)  is not just Harayana or Gujerat. To say anything is a part of India it needs to be part of an entity spanning from Punjab in the West to Bengal/Orissa in the East and as far South as Bangalore. Else it has not been a part of India in history.

 

I suggest you do a search on Parthian and Medis.... just because they rule Persians does not mean they were Persian. Parthians originally were nomads from Bactria (Balkh Afghanistan). They were Scythian-Parni nomads (Assyrians called them Ashkuz) and had settled in Parthia and had built a small independent kingdom there! Cyrus Persian king conquer Parthia and for the next two centuries, Parthia was part of the Achaemenid empire.

 

In 522/521 BCE, Parthia revolted against the Persians, joining the Median rebel king Phraortes. But after the defeat of Medians by Persian---- Parthians were pacified again. Later on, Partia were part of Seleucid empire founded by Alexander the great.

In 245 , a Parthian satrap named Andragoras, revolted from the young Seleucid king Seleucus II Callinicus, who had just succeeded to the throne. In the confusion, Parthia was attacked by the Parni, a nomad tribe from the Central-Asian steppe. In 238, Parni occupied the district known as Astavene. Three years later, a Parnian leader named Tiridates ventured further south and seized the rest of Parthia. A counter-offensive by king Seleucus in 230-227 ended in disaster, and Hyrcania was also subdued by the Parni. Their capital was Hecatompylos.

 From now on, the Parni were known as Parthians. In the years that followed, their kings -Arsaces I, Arsaces II, Phriapathus, Phraates I- recognized the Seleucid king as their superiors, but under Mithradates I the Great (171-138 BCE) they conquered Media, Babylonia, and Elam, Persia and.. The end of Parthian long lasted empire came in 224 CE, when the empire was loosely organized and the last king was defeated by one of the empire's vassals, the Persians of the Sassanid dynasty.

 

You are right Lara, Pakistan should be a part of the Shia Iran no also. It is better that way, Now please take the initiative & start the movement to regularize your belief. Addition of the pakistani territory to Iran would also help the Shias in strengthening their leadership position as the future champions of the muslim world. 

 

IT will also help Afghanistan for both the parts of Afghanistan could unite & the Afghans could be officilly united, instead of playing poor cousins to the Punjabis, despite doing more fruitfull work than them.

 

It will also help the vanquished people of baloochistan who could also unite with their brethern in Iran.

 

It will also help the Indians in another way, the Shia population in India would be very happy with this move, & we could get theri votes by supporting Iran.

 

 

Punjabis and Sindhis arent really mixed with Indian at all. At least not central and southern generally. The cities do have a lot of Indians though in Punjab and Sindh. Some mixing of course occurs as everywhere. Punjabis generally are Punjabi and Sindhis generally are Sindhi.

 

As for Eastern Baloch and Eastern Pashtuns, you're right, they're not Indians, they're Pakistani.
