ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Iranian Azerbaijanis

Okay kiddo, so there are some people who live in a country called Iran and they are called Iranian Azerbaijanis. They come from a region in Iran that is close to another country called Azerbaijan. Even though they live in Iran, they have their own culture, language, and traditions that are different from other people in Iran.

Just like how you might speak a language different from your friend, Iranian Azerbaijanis speak a language called Azerbaijani instead of Farsi, which is the main language spoken in Iran. They also have different types of food, music, and dances that are unique to their culture.

Sometimes, there can be misunderstandings between Iranian Azerbaijanis and other people in Iran because of these differences. But it's important to remember that everyone should be respected for their own culture and traditions, no matter where they come from.
