Dear friends:
Apparently, The National Geographic’s latest World Atlas has
misrepresented (mistake or by purpose?) “The Persian Gulf”.
In its latest (Eighth) Edition the forever Persian Gulf has been
introduced as Arabian Gulf!!!!.
1 – Please read the details and review the United Nations documents.

Dear Sir/Madam:
I find it highly offensive for your organization to Change the
historical name of Persian Gulf to Arabian Gulf.
World historical records abundantly make it clear that this body of
water for many thousands of years has been called “The Persian Gulf “
that belongs to Iran (Persia). I strongly condemn this offensive and
colossal mistake (or politically motivated action?) in your part to
compromise a well known historical fact and Iran’s territorial
integrity.
Your actions, if not corrected, will be considered a total disregard
to the History of the World, as well as International Laws and
Regulations. This unjustified mistake can also be considered an act of
hostility toward 70 million Persians.
Sincerely,
……….
