They tend to be wealthy and live in large homes with very little furniture. Flashy watches and cars are requirements for all persian men. As a general rule, they are very loyal to other persians and equally sneaky when dealing with non-persians.

The California Persians have a very similar attitude and political orientation to the Florida Cubans.

Persian refers to an ethnicity which is apart of the much larger Iranian group that inhabited present day Iran, Anatolia (now Turkey), The Caucaus, and Central Asia. The ancient Persians usurped the Median Empire and declared themselves the Achaemenid Pars(Achaemenid persians). Present day Iran now contains many ethnic groups: Kurds, Lurs, Lakis, Arabs, Armenians, and Persians. Most Iranians are mixed because years of conquest, imperialism, and being conquered themselves. They will however often most of the time identify with Persian -- as Persian is infact the dominant culture and language (Farsi/Parsi) within the country of Iran and also heavily influenced the Islamic Caliphates and Ottoman Empire that followed them.
"To say your are Iranian is to say refer to your Nationality. To say you are Persian is to refer to your culture and roots."
