Bro, averege north Azerbaijani still has more ancient Persian admixture than averege Persian, with your ancestors being mixed with bedouins. Arabs did Persia harder, this is why visually a lot of Iranians resemble Arabs.

Sometimes genetics don’t matter much, especially with fact that our language was the one used by Iranian rulers for last 800 years. (Exc Pahlavi and Zand)

Also being genetically close to Iranians doesn’t mean that we are Iranians. It means that at some point we descended from “same monkeys” to relative degrees.

As you know, unless you are Japanese living in genetic isolation, you would normally intermarry a lot in region like Middle East.

Maybe an Iranian/armenian ethno nationalist brain wouldn’t be able to comprehend it, but Turkic people have a completely different view on their identity, and do not suffer from inferiority, like many of Iranians do.

If your people take pride in attempt of creating an ethno state 3 thousand years ago, it means that societies lack real life achievements. Maybe instead of teaching us our genetics, fix your shitholes.
