Question: The people that Xenophon said Armenian language sounded like make up what percentage of the country where Through the Olive Trees was set?

As with the spoken languages, the ethnic group composition also remains a point of debate, mainly regarding the largest and second largest ethnic groups, the Persians and Azerbaijanis, due to the lack of Iranian state censuses based on ethnicity. Peoples of the other ethnicities in Iran make up the remaining 22%, with Azerbaijanis constituting 16%, Arabs 2%, Turkmens and Turkic tribes 2%, and others 2% (such as Armenians, Talysh, Georgians, Circassians, Assyrians). The CIA's World Factbook has estimated that around 79% of the population of Iran are a diverse Indo-European ethno-linguistic group that comprise the speakers of Iranian languages, with Persians constituting 53% of the population, Gilaks and Mazanderanis 7%, Kurds 10%, Lurs 6%, and Balochs 2%. <SEP> these events are described in detail within the behistun inscription. after the administrative reorganization of the persian empire, armenia was converted into several satrapies. armenian satraps regularly intermarried with the family of the king of kings. these satraps provided contingents to xerxes' invasion of greece in 480 bc. herodotus says that the armenians in the army of xerxes "were armed like the phrygians." in 401 bc xenophon marched through armenia with a large army of greek mercenaries as part of the march of the ten thousand. xenophon mentions two individuals by the name orontes, apparently both persian. one was a nobleman and military officer of high rank, belonging to the royal family; as the commander of the citadel of sardis, he waged war against cyrus the younger and he tried to betray him to artaxerxes ii memnon shortly before the battle of cunaxa, but was taken prisoner and sentenced to death by a court martial. xenophon's anabasis has a detailed description of the country, where it is also written that the region near the river centrites was defended by the satrap of armenia for artaxerxes ii, named orontes, son of artasyras, who had armenian contingents as well as alarodians. tiribaz is mentioned as hipparchos (vice-governor) of armenia under orontes, who later became satrap of lydia. <SEP> olives are not native to the americas. spanish colonists brought the olive to the new world, where its cultivation prospered in present - day peru and chile. the first seedlings from spain were planted in lima by antonio de rivera in 1560. olive tree cultivation quickly spread along the valleys of south america's dry pacific coast where the climate was similar to the mediterranean. spanish missionaries established the tree in the 18th century in california. it was first cultivated at mission san diego de alcalá in 1769 or later around 1795. orchards were started at other missions, but in 1838, an inspection found only two olive orchards in california. cultivation for oil gradually became a highly successful commercial venture from the 1860s onward. in japan, the first successful planting of olive trees happened in 1908 on shodo island, which became the cradle of olive cultivation. an estimated 865 million olive trees are in the world today (as of 2005), and the vast majority of these are found in mediterranean countries, with traditionally marginal areas accounting for no more than 25% of olive - planted area and 10% of oil production. <SEP> The film was selected as the Iranian entry for the Best Foreign Language Film at the 67th Academy Awards, but was not accepted as a nominee. Through the Olive Trees ( "Zīr-e Derakhtān-e Zeytūn", actually meaning "Under the Olive Trees") is a 1994 film directed and written by Iranian director Abbas Kiarostami, set in earthquake-ravaged Northern Iran. <SEP> Historically, the name Armenian has come to internationally designate this group of people. It was first used by neighbouring countries of ancient Armenia. The earliest attestations of the exonym Armenia date around the 6th century BC. In his trilingual Behistun Inscription dated to 517 BC, Darius I the Great of Persia refers to Urashtu (in Babylonian) as Armina (in Old Persian; Armina (    ) and Harminuya (in Elamite). In Greek, Αρμένιοι "Armenians" is attested from about the same time, perhaps the earliest reference being a fragment attributed to Hecataeus of Miletus (476 BC). He relates that the people spoke a language that to his ear sounded like the language of the Persians. Xenophon, a Greek general serving in some of the Persian expeditions, describes many aspects of Armenian village life and hospitality in around 401 BC.
