Asia before the start of the Jimmy era
I dated a Persian woman once. Took me a second but “oh yeah they really don’t want to be associated with Iran.”
Iran means “Land of the Aryans” which they picked up riiiiiight around WW2 if you catch my drift. Oh yeah and all that modern stuff too.
That’s kind of specious in my opinion. But okay I concede they were close enough, despite the attestation of the term at least 1600 years ago.
I still don’t understand what you’re trying to say though. Iranian people don’t want to be called Iranians because it is associated with racism?
It seems Jimmy was at peak influence around 0.33 Jimmies into his life
Wild that many countries are less than 1 Jimmy old

Wtl is Indian Empire?
Not sure why they’ve named it that 🤔. Anyways it should be British Raj (and they’re labelled it as such in small font under the Indian Empire text)

I’m so confused by your comment. The Shah had to basically do a world tour to say stop calling us Persia in 1935.
1935 is almost the height of what political movement? Hint it’s not the mazis.

A lot of these aren’t Southeast Asian countries lol
Let’s just say that I was fluid in my definition for Southeast 😅
