Ahh - thanks for the clarification. Lots of bad history came out of that part of the world, so I don't blame you for not wanting to go there - but also alot of good came out of that part of the world to all our benefit (Persia was the cradle of science and technology before it all went sideways, and as an Engineer I admire that).
The one thing I did learn on Wiki is that all the myriad calendars everywhere are based on all sorts of different events and have differing cycles so none of them actually match up unless you get educated on the why's and wherefores.
