Portrait of Ancient Persia from the Hetalia manga series with his family (Persia belongs to Hidekaz Himaruya). His wives Bactria (far left), Parthia (second from left), and Media (far right), and his young daughter Iran. Persia did have additional territories he kept as concubines, but Media, Bactria, and Parthia were his main consorts. Media was Persia's first and primary wife. Media had once been a major power in the east and she never forgot that despite her short reign, often acting as though she was not a captured territory but an equal partner with her husband. During her time as an empire, she went toe-to-toe with the kingdoms of Lydia and Babylonia. When Persia rose to power after Cyrus the Great rebelled against and overthrew the Median monarchy, Media and her people were still treated with respect and given high positions at court. Her power and importance were retained no matter who ruled her; in fact, Greece considered Persian sympathizers to be "Medianized" rather than "Persianized." She was a scholar and scientist, fascinated with uncovering the mysteries of the world, and Persia relied heavily on her wisdom. Persian kings also were referred to as kings of "Persia and Media." Both Parthia and Bactria had been Media's handmaids before Persia took them as his wives. Bactria was deemed an exceptional beauty and was considered one of sixteen perfect Iranian lands created by Ahura Mazda, the chief god of Zoroastrianism. As her lands were always governed by the crown prince of the empire, Bactria was often tasked with guarding the king's heir-apparent. She was devoted to Persia and, when Alexander the Great and Macedonia showed up and caused trouble, Bactria was the first to begin rebellions against the invaders. When she, herself, was captured and forced to adopt Greek customs, she spied on her Hellenistic rulers and reported back to Persia until she was able to dismantle the Indo-Greek kingdom. She also sometimes encountered China (who called her "Daxia") and became an important business partner of his in the Silk Road. Parthia was always an ambitious woman. Despite having spent a long time as an underling for Media, and, later, a secondary wife for Persia, she schemed for many years to be the dominant nation in the region. When Persia began to experience trouble after Alexander's generals carved up the empire, Parthia saw her opportunity to establish her own empire. She was relentless and vicious in her expansion, even threatening Rome on multiple occasions. Her aims were not entirely selfish, though, as she used her empire-building as a chance to keep Persia alive; though she had him locked in his quarters until he managed to sneak away and rise to power once more as the Sasanian Persian Empire. Little Iran (whose human name was "Parysatis," though she later changed it to "Parisa") would one day take on her father's legacy as a great empire. When Persia was killed during the Muslim conquest, little Iran was taken in by the Umayyad Caliphate, who treated her as inferior because she wasn't an Arab and refused to abandon her Persian culture. Iran never forgave her father's murderer and eventually overthrew him in support of the new Abbasid Caliphate. She eventually grew frustrated with the Abbasids, too, and began rebelling at any opportunity. Throughout the constant changing of power and the invasions, Iran clung to memories of her father and did everything she could to preserve his culture. It was during the Mongol invasion and rule that the last shreds of Iran's innocence ended, leaving her a very hard and angry young woman. The death and destruction she witnessed scarred her for the rest of her life. She eventually managed to rise above the conquests to become the Safavid Empire (and, later, the Afsharid Empire), so strong and powerful that she terrified both the Ottoman and Mughal Empires. Dynastic changes, civil wars, the slaughter of rebellious khanates, WWII, interference from foreign countries, and an outright revolution led her to become what she is today. Despite being quick to anger, she is deeply intelligent and loves learning, dedicating much of her free time to studying anything she can - even things her current bosses might not approve of.

Putting together some new years goals...er...to do

It is going to be another big change year so I am going to be organizing what I need to do, what I wanna do and stuff. Is there anything you all would be looking forward to? I was looking back at old au stuff/events and wondered how I would create things now vs then, It makes me eager but lets see what life thinks. 

I was also counting all the ask I have and pondered if I can pull a miracle and get them all done before year of the rabbit. Might even turn my Hogwarts Persia blog into something different, Give it to my 2p Persia or play with a alternative muse/s I have. Could be a plot/muse dump site for all I know!

If you got anything let me know, I would love to hear you~~

Do u have any headcanons about Rome or the other ancients

i do! here are some of them:

Rome is the Italybros' father, not their grandfather. Children are sometimes bittersweet omens for nations; your beginning is a harbinger of someone else's end.

When he was still a republic, the Battle of Cannae during the Punic Wars against Carthage was the moment Rome most feared dying for real. As the Carthaginian general Hannibal proclaimed; "I swear to arrest the destiny of Rome with fire and steel"—that put some real fear into young Rome's heart.

Persia (aka the Achaemenid Empire) is at least 3,000 years old—they and modern Iran are the same person. Another ye olde helltalia, like China.

Germania's real name is not Germania: he is one of the many Germanic nations that existed; as historically, Tacitus' concept of "Germania" is more of a Roman construction—they didn't see themselves as a single unified "Germanic" cultural or political entity. So, Tacitus' Germania? Much like Herodotus: father of history, father of lies, perhaps...

Yao's earliest memory is of walking along the Yellow River. It's one thing he has in common with many other ancient nations; rivers feature heavily in their earliest sense of being: Rome (the Tiber), Sumer (the Tigris and the Euphrates), Ancient Egypt (the Nile) and Olmec (the Coatzacoalcos, in modern Mexico) being some examples. Yao thinks of the Yellow River as being both life and death; the fertile silt on the banks that would be the lifeblood of his civilisation, but also the source of devastating floods throughout his history.

Yao rather respected Rome, Persia/Iran and India a lot more than his other neighbours; Rome being called da qin（大秦）or "great qin". Almost a sort of "oh, there's another empire at the opposite end of the (then) known world just like me." Bit of a difference from how at various points, Yong-soo and Kiku got much less flattering names. Today, many things have crumbled under the sword of time, but there's still Roman glassware he has from that long-gone time of the Silk Road that linked Rome and China—as well as all the other cultures in between—together.
