How do the people in Iran differ from other southwest Asian peoples?
Iranians are primarily of the Persian ethnic group as opposed to the majority of Southwest Asians, who are Arabs. (This means that they speak Farsi, not Arabic, and have a very different cultural tradition and value towards education and economic development.) Also Iran is a majority-Shiite Muslim country as opposed to most of the rest of the Middle East, which is majority Sunni Muslim. Iranians, also, as a result of secularism in the 1950s-70s and hatred of the current fundamentalist religious regime, are very secular-minded people and there is a large underground Atheist movement in Iran. This runs contrary to most Middle Eastern countries where the average person is very religious.
