Abstract
Khuzestan was a part of the IRAN from the beginning of history. Historical and geographical documents, affirm this fact since the ancient periods of history until now. Moreover Khuzestan is the primordial origin of the Iranian civilization and culture. From the middle of the 19th century, so many efforts have been done for parting this part of the land of IRAN, but these efforts haven’t reached any results until now and the main reason was Iranian identity of Khuzestan. Therefore the antagonist powers have concentrated their efforts to distortion of the identity of this part of IRAN. They try to signalize the linguistic and ethnical distinctive lines in Khuzestan in the case of cultural proceedings and sometimes political proceedings. Also they try to prepare the situations for the proceedings which are out of Iranian identity in the name of historiography or consciousness. Hence they have started to think about "culture making", "history making" and "nation-making".
