Iran or Persia's most powerful cultural warrior, wrote Kings. It is difficult for me to compare, a bit similar to our historical record. Fortunately, with him, the current Iranians can understand the lost civilization. Darius! Cyrus! Xerxes! Now Kings are still playing in various parts of Iran.

Iran or Persia's most powerful cultural warrior, wrote Kings. It is difficult for me to compare, a bit similar to our historical record. Fortunately, with him, the current Iranians can understand the lost civilization. Darius! Cyrus! Xerxes! Now Kings are still playing in various parts of Iran.
He wrote about the kings not in Arabic, but in Persian. He feared that the Persians would lose their way and lose their national spirit. It took more than three decades to write the story of the ancient Persian Empire.
There are many legends about him writing Kings, saying how much he would get paid. Every line gets a gold coin. But if that happens, the country will go bankrupt, and he ends up writing 60,000 lines!
It's a bit like our Li Bai and Sima Qian hybrid.
