[Mawathagama]

Persia was roughly Iran and Syria. Persians got reputation for bravery especially after Cyrus invaded Lydia when Croesus foolishly sought to subdue Persia. Read the story. Beautiful. A very beautiful story filled with lessons for life.

The word "Iran" means Aryan land.
Traditional name of Afghanistan is "Ariana", has the same meaning.

I think Afghanistan evolved from the Sanskrit word 'ashva' because that place was famous for horse trade.
