Persians are an Indo-European people who developed a civilization in what is now Iran, Afghanistan, and Pakistan. The Persian Empire is known for a vast expansion, characterized by a tolerant attitude towards minorities and gifts of autonomy to local regions, governed by an absolutist king. Their historic religion is Zoroastrianism, but after the conquest of Persia by the Islamic Caliphate, the majority religion of the Persians (as well as the ethnic minorities of Iran) has become Shiite Islam.
