So Tajiks are just Sunni Persians?
tajiks have little to do with persians
>>18500623They speak Persian
>>18500624bolivians speak spanish
>>18500623Tajiks are Persians
Destiny makes sure there is always a civilized Persia and a barbarian Persia, consisting of steppe-herding horse nomads, who are something like distant cousins to them.I don't know why that is, but this has always been true as long as Persia existed.
>>18500973Like Medes and Cyrus's tribe
>>18500973The Tajiks are rather an urban or agricultural people. The Tajik minority in Uzbekistan is almost entirely condensed to the cities of Samarkand or Bukhara, as far as I know. It seems rather that destiny has it that idiots will always blabber on about topics they know absolutely nothing about in the most arrogant tone, much to my misery.
>>18500705they are not. but they're all iranic, along with afghans
already by 1404, a Castilian envoy wrote that past Andkhoy, Media ended and people were called Tajiks. so nothing to do with religion since iranis weren't shia by that time
Tajik originally was an slur by Turkic speaking people against Urbanized Iranian speakers in central asia
bump
>>18500468Tajiks are a meme.They gave away a shit ton of land to Chinks for some cash.They built a parliament that is mostly empty and rarely used. They think they're Nordic.They use up a huge chunk of their budget to import expensive European trees.They sell off their daughters to rich Russians, Chinks and anyone else.I watched an Indian vlogger who visited Tajikistan. He told them they speak Persian and they told him "NOOOO IT'S TAJIK". Even when he told them a language can have different names and writing systems, they kept denying it. In their school curriculum, they've swapped out all mentions of Iran with Tajikistan and pretend the rewrite is authentic. They're actually doing this because they were brainwashed by Russians.>>18501338I've heard this but doubt it. Tajik is likely a portmanteau of the Iranian word for crown and something else. Mughal sources use the term Tajik but rarely disparagingly.
>>18503675>They think they're Nordic.what?
