The vast majority of Iranians are descended from the Aryans, Asian peoples who settled in what became known as Persia. Iran the people follows the history of this ancient land, from the height of the Persian Empire, through the Muslim conquest in the mid-600s, and the Revolution of 1979. Interesting photographs detail how today's Islamic Republic influences the daily lives of Iranians, especially in education and the role of women.
