Armenia. Even though it is a Christian state, Armenia has one of the closest relationship with Iran.
Likely Afghanistan given the linguistic similarities and common iranic racial origins of many of the various ethnic groups in both nations.
Depends on the region I guess. Overall I would say Azerbaijan and Afghanistan.
Azerbaijan = Northern Iran
It looks to me like none of the country selections really can match Iran well enough to call them an ideal match. People here promote Azerbaijan as the ideal choice, but I really don't agree, unless we're talking about the Azerbaijani Region South of the Araxes River.
Politically speaking, Baku, Azerbaijan has little in common with Iran's Politics. Azerbaijan's political climate casts a shadow over its social environment, so much so that it looks alien to what we see in Iran. Even the religious environment is different. I could elaborate upon it, but for now I've said enough.
What I see on the videos from travel vlogs about Iran it looks like a well developed Afghanistan.
Afghanistan. With the exception of the differing dialects their culture/religion is identical. Tajikistan at a close second.
Iran is closest to Afghanistan, same race, look similar, have same holidays. After that is Tajikistan. After that is Azerbaijan who are basically Turkized Iranians, with some Caucasian base. After that it is Armenia which had significant Iranian influence, and then Georgia. This how it is currently. Before it would be Uzbekistan and Turkmenistan. Merv was one of the capitals of the Persian empire, as well Bukhara was a Persian city. Now they are Mongolized and Turkized. Pre-Islamic Iran also had similarity to Northern India as well.
