Azerbaycan   When you think about its pretty funny and sad at the same time Azerbaycan is such a small country these days and yet its influences go all arround the middle east Everyone debates who Azeri really are and were did they come from The truth is Azerbaycan are the descendants of the Medes The Medes was a independant Empire that was as large as Iran of today They made a huge impact on the world they changed the perspective of the world as it is today  I know Persians say Azeri are Iranians and Turks say Azeri are Turkish But the truth is Azeri are a independant people with a combination of the two nations Medes merged into Persia the first Persian King was Cyprus and he was half Azeri After the Persians the Turks took over We learned they culture and language and still use it today Today Azeri are more closer to Turks then to Persian in fact we Azeri pretty much hate Persians They changed our great history they say Azeri dont even excist what kinda nonsense is this Ill tell you why becayse of the  million people living in Iran today  million of them are Azeri But the Iran goverment dont like to call them Azeri instead they are called Turkic Anyways whole north of Iran belong to Azerbaycan in reality thats why Iran and Azerbaycan arent friends but more enemies Iran fears the Azeri people because if Azeri unite then Iran will lose half its territory half it population half its economie pretty much half its everything Really remarkeable how these Persians fear the Azeri people they know it aswell
