They are Aryans ("True
Aryan Race")
Iran was originally called "Iranshahr", meaning "Land of the Aryans"
They are semites as well.
They are not white people, but in the US they are classified as 'white', which is extremely offending to their heritage.
They speak
Farsi, not Arabic. (Farsi is mainly a mixture of pure Persian, Arabic, and Turkish) Arabic words are in Farsi due to the
Arabs conquering Iran hundreds of years ago. Turkish words are in Farsi because, the Safavid
Empire's (one of the three Persian Empires) official language was Turkish.
A stereotypical Iranian is fairly skinned,
big nosed, dark haired,
brown eyed, EXTREMELY hairy (yes, for BOTH genders),
pretty rich yet cheap. They love bargains and free stuff. They have odd accents.
