Hey guys! I am writing an essay about Iran and need help. I don't quite understand how the history goes. I tried my best to write it by myself but it is just so confusing for me and there are not enough sites that even include history from the very beginning. If anyone could explain it in a more simpler way, it would be amazing. I wrote the most I could but I am not sure if it is historically correct and I am sure I missed several key events. To make things worse, I have to perform an oral presentation presenting this and I know for sure I will get nervous and mess up without your help. Thanks guys!
Also, here is the link to what I have written so far. I know it isn't the best but it is more of a rough draft for now. Again, thanks and hope I can ace this as my grade heavily relies on this.
You've picked a bad part of the world for a generic question like this.
If you use the reddit search function, I can give some keywords that directly relate to Iranian history and have been discussed in /r/Askhistorians before:
I've basically listed some religions, dynasties, and leaders that were very important to influencing Iranian history. There's a huge wiki file on Iranian history as well, which will give you the general overview you're looking for. You'll probably need it open while reading stuff in /r/Askhistorians. This subreddit is geared towards more specific questions, as you'll see when you search the keywords.
