Cultural Life
Few countries enjoy such a long cultural heritage as does Iran, and few people are so aware of and articulate about their deep cultural tradition as are the Iranian. Iran, or Persia, as a historical entity, dates to the time of the Achaemenids (about 2500 years ago), and, despite political, religious, and historic changes, Iranians maintain a deep connection to their past. Although daily life in modern Iran id closely interwoven with Shiite Islam, the country’s art, literature, and architecture are an ever-present reminder of its deep national tradition and of a broader literary culture that during the early modern period spread throughout the Middle East and South Asia. Despite the predominance of Persian culture, Iran remains a multiethnic state, and the country’s Armenian, Azerbaijan, Kurdish, and smaller ethnic minorities each have their own literary and historical traditions dating back many centuries, even in the case of the Armenians to the pre-Christian era. These groups frequently maintain close connections with larger cultural life of their kindred outside Iran.
