Hello portlandpolyglot, It's my pleasure that you have such an idea about Iranian and our history. Hakhamaneshi and Safavieh were the bigest kingdoms of Iran in past. I live in Isfahan, the capital city in Safavieh period; if one day you decide to come to Iran, I hope you trip to Isfahan, since you can find lots of historical buildings and bridges that have built in Safavieh which their especial architecture can engrossing you. If you are interested I can also share some images fro you from these building on Skype.

Thanks Laurent, I hope this relationship between Iranians and European continues forever.
It is really the fault of politicians. I loved your sentence a lot: I wish the media would let the politicians work in silence and not pollute Societies.
I hope that people around the world check our history, and especially the history and relations of Iran with their country. For example, Iranians need no visa to go to US.

Every thing changes after revolution of Iran for an Islamic country which is not accepted from many Iranians!

Hi Mimi,
I hope most of people think like you. It is really true that a large percentage of people in Iran are not agree with their government.
Unfortunately, I should say that you read right! There are awful laws for women for their wearing. For example, if you travel to Iran you should cover your hair!

To answer you, I should say that Iran is a really high cultural country, you'll find people very friendly and polite, and most of them have high educations. But the problem is with laws and governors, which are make it a little hard to leave in Iran. If the government changes in future, absolutely, I will stay in Iran for my whole life.

Hi Steve, I should say that there are many rappers in Iran, and also you can by beer if you want even if they are illigal.;) But notice these are laws of governoment,and not Iranian people; many of Iranian have opposing ideas about the governoment.

Aslo, I have B.Sc. in Electrical Engineering, and this fall, Iwill come to US for pursuing my Phd studies. So, I think it's clear why this topic should be important for me.
