    That doesn't make sense. Any normie will tell you about Iranian kings but struggle to name a single Turkic one. On the other hand historians note that the biggest empires centered in Iran were native ones, not Turkic.

            >Turkmens are the fathers of Turks and they are further from Iranians than modern "Turkish" mutts.
            moronic argument, they share only Ancient Turkic ancestry which is not the majority of the Turks DNA, It's not even 25%. Turks are closer to Iranians to Turkmen because the Neolithic Anatolians raped the Iranians, that's why Iranians are 25-35% EEF. Turks inherit Neolithic Iranian ancestry from the chalcholithic Anatolians, not Turkics. They also carry it in far less amounts than Iranians.

            They're not. but whatever makes you happy

            To be fair, I think the Buyids did a lot of their conquering in the mesopotamia region, but their rule there was incredibly short lived (I'm talking like a quarter of a century if that) and left nearly zero impact outside of maybe persian script being more popular, but that was already happening. Needless to say, It was a very short lived "empire" and declined almost immediately after its peak and does not hold a candle to the old Sassanids, its not even close

            They lasted a little over a century. That's a pretty long time.
            >left nearly zero impact
            Seljuk institutions were all copies of buyid ones. They ended the relevance of the caliphate. There's was one of the last few dynasties to support massive amounts scholarship. Their biggest legacy is twelver shi'ism which was largely their creation. Those are all pretty significant

            Gokturks were Iranian Sakas and Iranian Sogdians ruling over conquered Turkic slaves. The royalty and government were non-Turkic.

            >The Ashina (Chinese: 阿史那; pinyin: Āshǐnà; Wade–Giles: A-shih-na; Middle Chinese: (Guangyun) [ʔɑʃi̯ə˥nɑ˩]), were a tribe and the ruling dynasty of the Göktürks.

            >American historian Peter Golden has reported that genetic testing of the proposed descendants of the Ashina tribe does seem to confirm a link to the Indo-Iranians, emphasizing that "the Turks as a whole ‘were made up of heterogeneous and somatically dissimilar populations'".[68]

            >Although the Göktürks spoke Old Turkic, the Khaganate's early official texts and coins were written in Sogdian.[5][13]

            >Muqan Qaghan, the third Qaghan of the First Turkic Khaganate, was described by Chinese authors as having an unusual appearance. His eyes were blue,[60] he had a red complexion, and his face was wide.[61][62]

            >According to Chinese scientist Xue Zongzheng, the early members of the Ashina tribe had physical features that were quite different from those of East Asian people. These would include deep eye sockets, prominent noses, and light eye or hair color. However, over time, members of the Ashina tribe intermarried with Chinese nobility, which shifted their physical appearance to a more East Asian one.[63]

            >He also adds that Turk system of beliefs linking at least some sections of the Turk ruling class to the Sogdians and, beyond them, to the Wusun.[38]

            To be fair, I think the Buyids did a lot of their conquering in the mesopotamia region, but their rule there was incredibly short lived (I'm talking like a quarter of a century if that) and left nearly zero impact outside of maybe persian script being more popular, but that was already happening. Needless to say, It was a very short lived "empire" and declined almost immediately after its peak and does not hold a candle to the old Sassanids, its not even close

    Because Islam turned Persians into Arabs without an identity. Pre-Islamic Persia was great. Post-Islamic Iran was essentially an Arab country.
    When the Turks came to Iran, they had their unique culture and identity which was different to Arabs and Persians. This made them stronger and allowed them to rule over them. You see that once they also mixed with their subjected Arabs and Persians do they also lose their strength and become weak.
