Zoroastrianism is believed to have commenced in southern Russia almost four thousand years ago. The people migrated south into eastern Iran. Then around the eighth century BCE, the Persians and Medes of western Iran also adopted the religion. When the Persians conquered Babylon, they took the religion with them into southern Mesopotamia.
After the arrival of Islam, some Zoroastrians fled to the western coastal regions of what is now Pakistan and India, but Iran remained strongly Zoroastrian. Around the seventeenth century, Zoroastrianism began to decline rapidly in Iran and is now only a very small comminity. There remains another small Zoroastrian community in Pakistan, but the largest Zoroastrian community is the Parsi community of western India. A Parsi diaspora also exists in some western countries around the world.
