    Default Guess origin of Nowruz dancers

    These are Newroz dancers belonging to the Silk Road Dance Company. Guess their origin based on their clothing. Obviously I could identify the Kurdish one quite easily (It's the traditional clothing most common in Central_Southern regions). I think I also successfully identified the Persian, Turkmenistani, Tajik and Pashtun(Or Baloch?) ones. However wasn't so sure about the other.

    Some of them look North Indian
    The Talmud tells us that the only language the Torah could be translated into elegantly is Greek.

    That wasn't the main question though. Can you identify them?

    The music is persian (Iran) so guessing the ethnicities that make up iran. So probably mostly persians, with Azeris also, and since kurds with 12 million are one of the top two minorities in iran probabilistically there’s a couple of kurds. Because of the much lower baloch pop probabilstically no baloch, and I couldn’t spot any where i would say must be baloch only

    I’ve seen these types of nowroz celebrations in the west and sometimes persians and iranian kurds collaborate to celebrate in the same place. I went to one where the organizers were persians and after the persian dance they introduced the kurdish and azeri dancers.

    Actually since many of them looked European I did a search and it seems about 1/2 are Europeans, with only 1 kurd a couple of Persians and a few W and C Asians . Here’s a description of each dancer

    yep this is not "Iran" compilation. The dancers are of various backgrounds I knew it just from looking at the clothings. Some of them are simply now way from Iran. Like one of them is typically Turkmenistan. The Kurdish one is obvious to me. The dress is typically Central-Southern Kurdish.

    However with the exception of 1 or 2 the other dancers in this particular video are not of European descend.
    The point of the whole video was the guess by their dressing anyways.

    Try to guess them
