Apparently you are all lacking a history lesson on how Persians viewed other cultures. No surprise there though, it is very rare that modders on this forum are actual historians of any kind.

Of course not; that's what the historians are for. Only Rez is a historian on Persian history around here, and a darn good one at that.
Anyway, I was saying that calling any other culture "infidel" was strange, as infidel always implies unbeliever, while Persians were pretty tolerant in religion. If they weren't, give me sources, instead of (unsuccessfully) trying to insult me

I think you're looking for "barbarian" here, which would be more logical, though I'd have no idea whether it'd be accurate (again, sources?)

These aren't the Sassanids, and even those were only periodically tying to convert their subjects. If you have no

ing idea what you are talking about, shut it, OK?

I speak urdu, so if anyone just writes out what I have to say, I can do it pretty well.

**Blatta Optima Maxima** · July 29, 2011, 04:27 AM

And Urdu is similar to which language? Magada (sp?)?

**DarthLazy** · July 29, 2011, 04:55 AM

Persian. Very similiar.easy for me to pronounce things rightly.

**Blatta Optima Maxima** · July 29, 2011, 06:20 AM

But urdu is an Indian language not Iranian.

**DarthLazy** · July 29, 2011, 06:42 AM

It is an everything language, Arabic,Hindi,Sanskrit,Persin,Turkish, you name it

**Blatta Optima Maxima** · July 29, 2011, 06:44 AM

So, judging by the list, it's heavily influenced by Persian...?

**DarthLazy** · July 29, 2011, 07:02 AM

Yea pretty much. Even though I wont understand a word of Persian, without knowing it, I might speak many persian words in a sentence. Ive not studied language, so I dont know exactly which word belongs to which language.
