The Roman historian Procopius writes in the book "History of Wars" in the Iran-Roman Wars section:
"Although what I want to say is not for the benefit of us Romans and it weakens the morale of our soldiers, the truth must be told. Justinian (Roman Emperor) believes that there is a substance in the blood of Iranian soldiers that makes them fearless and fearless and proud...
Iranian soldiers, even if they are captured, unlike other nations, do not kneel before the conqueror and do not express helplessness and beg.
It is not possible to force an Iranian captive into exile or break his pride and character through torture. I don't know what soil and water Iran has that cultivates the seeds of patriotism in the lives of its people..."
