Revision as of 03:02, 25 September 2009
polling google books,
- "Persian Empire" 5,466 hits. Most of these relate to the Achaemenid period, but there are exceptions:
- (616 for explicit "Achaemenid Persian Empire")
- 28 for "Parthian Persian Empire" (includes hits for compounded Parthian-Persian Empire)
- 296+374+80+115 for "Sassanian Persian Empire" or "Sassanid Persian Empire" or "Sasanid Persian Empire" or "Sasanian Persian Empire"
- 36 for "Mongol Persian Empire
- 1 for "Timurid Persian Empire"
- 27+5 for "Turko-" or Turco-Persian Empire"
- 49 for "Safavid Persian Empire"
now of course this blind polling includes all sort of abysmal literature, but it can be taken to show that "post-Sassanid historic Iran more generally" is an existing, albeit marginal of the order of a few percent, application of the term "Persian Empire" in "literature" in the most general sense. Enough to link history of Iran on this disambiguation page, but hardly enough to argue that "Persian Empire" refers to historic Iran generally in any significant, let alone primary, sense. --dab (𒁳) 14:17, 5 September 2009 (UTC)
