Iranians or Persians.

Note: Iranian is a national term, that is to say what passport a person holds would be Iranian. Persian is an ethnic term and refers to the dominant ethnicity in Iran. (The equivalent in the United States would be American and White respectively.) There are numerous Iranians who are not Persians such as the Azeri, the Awaji Arabs, the Turcomans, the Qashqai and others. (The United States equivalent would be African-Americans, Hispanic-Americans, Asian-Americans, etc.)
