[QUOTE="Admin, post: 207533, member: 1"] Iran was a secure country so, they started to do business in Iran. Iran is a predominantly a Muslim populated country. The majority of the population that lives here are Muslims. In fact, Islam is the official religion of Islam. But there’s a lot more that Iran has to offer in terms of its cultural diversity.
