I chose the Pahlavi period. Partly because of the political changes and events and because my life probably would be relatively good (certainly in comparison with ancient or medieval times).

It would be nice to 'go to vacation' back in time, but actually live there? Yeah I agree with you. In ancient Bactria, and probably in most of Persia, the old and feeble were sent to the Dakhmas "Towers of Silence" where dogs would rip them apart, no thanks.

I'd make a new one called the Arpadian dynasty, which is in my dreams , basically iran is strongest nation, we have hot chicks (we already do! anyway), our soccer team is the strongest, there is world peace (so no need to use te army), no taxes, free chelo kebap on fridays, and we sit around all day long and play satranj with our turkic, and iranic brothers, while drinking chai and eating bakhlavas and lokum....,,,, and also we all sit around in the evening and eat everysingle kebap ever, and hear wonderful stories from our arabic brothers yay thats my dream kingdom and the one i would like to live in...

From this list only I'd say Achaemenid, since Persians were most
powerful and prosperous in that period of 200 years. But I'd also
consider living in one of the Iranian dynasties that broke away from
the Abbasids, such as the Buyids.

Not exactly wrong but neither true. Shapur II quarreled with the Christian Roman Empire over domiance over the Christians in the Sassanian Empire. It went both ways.

Hard choice,
Achamanid sounds interesting but high ranking officals can put you to death for any reason they chose basicly. Infact that is also possible for the Pahlavi reygime as well. Sassanids were to religous and forced there religon on non Zorastrians. This is defenetly a hard choice for me.
I would have to pick either Pahlavi or one of the (Achamanid,Parthian,or Sassanid).

Ah yes, the Sassanids, those great humanitarians .
Id choose the Pahlavi dynasty, it seems the least extreme out of the group.
