Persia
The name Persia was in general use in the West until 1935, although the Iranians themselves had long called their country Iran.
The Iranian plateau was settled about 1500 BC by Aryan tribes, notably the Medes, and later the Persians, who emigrated from Parsua into the southern region of the plateau, which they named Parsamash or Parsumash. The Persians were dominated by the Medes until Cyrus the Great overthrew the Median rulers around 550 BC, then conquered Lydia and Babylonia and established the Persian Empire.
