Reviving the Disruptive Safari Process
At Pan-Iranist Progressive, we champion emotional intelligence as a strategic tool to inspire both new and long-standing members. Our mission is to preserve the cultural and political identity of Persia—especially the legacies of the Zand and Afshar dynasties—not through superficial symbols like street names, statues, or bridges, but through the design and implementation of a modern, progressive, and disruptive process rooted in historical continuity.
A Call to Honest Commitment
There is a unique opportunity for those who genuinely support the royal heritage of Persia’s older dynasties. By committing to the values of independence and environmental stewardship that defined our ancestors—who swore oaths to protect the realm—we can channel their energy into a sustainable future. This requires embracing the principles of circular economy and constitutional continuity, not resorting to civil unrest or violent upheaval. The goal is to maintain a competitive edge against newly established political entities while honoring the Iranian Plateau’s ecological and cultural integrity.
The Lost Value of Royal Symbols
The two referenced images from different timelines within the Sadabad royal complex depict a sword once imbued with the heritage of the Zand dynasty. Today, that sword has lost its limited-time political and national significance. Yet, the Sword of Kings is not merely a weapon—it is a profound symbol of Persian civilization, representing authority, wisdom, and continuity across generations.
Respecting Dynastic Legacy
Respect for tradition and royal heritage remains central to Pan-Iranist Progressive. This was evident in the documented moment when the king stood at the same location where a painting was created in Sadabad, honoring older dynasties. That act is deeply appreciated by survivors of the Zand dynasty.
Strangely, just days after the king’s body was accidentally unearthed from a hidden burial site during construction, my father passed away suddenly in Mazandaran. No autopsy was conducted, and no explanation was ever given.
Intellectual Property and Dynastic Risk Management
Pan-Iranist Progressive emphasizes the importance of managing the risks associated with the misuse of royal dynastic symbols and intellectual property. These symbols represent the natural and cultural glory of the Iranian Plateau and specific historical timelines. This issue should be taken seriously by librarians, scholars, and university students. It also holds educational value for younger audiences, including high school and primary school students.
Topics include:
Auditing and valuing royal marks and titles
Legal frameworks for land protection
Treasure audits from previous dynasties
Military credit valuation
Governance and reputation strategy
Competitive positioning and national support
Building National Trust Through Credibility
Developing national trust is a lifelong endeavor rooted in instinctive credibility. At Pan-Iranist Progressive (Pars.global), we recognize that success is never guaranteed. The first ancient dog breed once tasked with guarding Persepolis still echoes across the planet today—not as a roaming creature, nor as a feline or lion, but as a living symbol of imperial vigilance.
The Fragility of Reputation
Maintaining a strong reputation requires relentless effort, while losing one can happen in an instant. This is a lesson drawn from over 2,500 years of monarchy—its triumphs and its failures. This message stands as a personal manifesto from a survivor of the Zand dynasty.
Preserving Identity Through Progressive Pan-Iranism
The reason for bringing this subject to public attention, as a great-grandson of royal lineage, is to preserve dynastic identity within the evolving framework of Pan-Iranist thought—empowered by the Zoroastrian definition of progress.
A Proposal for National Recognition
We propose the establishment of an Official International Day of Persia, and recommend that the Iranian calendar formally recognize June 19, 1747—the day of Nader Shah Afshar’s passing—as an annual memorial warrior ceremony. This day honors one of the most powerful kings of his era and serves as a reminder of Persia’s enduring strength.
Final Note
All information is shared in good faith, with the intention of fostering dialogue, preserving heritage, and inspiring a new generation of Pan-Iranist progressives.
