After "The Macedonian" conquered Persia, he combined his army with the largely intact Persian forces, but unsurprisingly there was friction between the comands, and Alexander admonished his own generals, pointing out that the so called greek and persian languages, were mutualy comprehensable. The most ancient history of greek/persian origins is that they were the same tribe long long ago, but there was a dispute, exactly what is lost, but even to this day greeks carry a grudge and persians give them the piss. There is more, much more to the combined history of the greek and persian tribes, but what with the present fantasy landscaping of the past, its an unpleasant slog to try and comunicate.
