▶️ As several countries are celebrating Navruz we may ask ourselves where this celebration comes from. The origin of it is actually the ancient religion of Zoroastrianism, the first monotheistic religion (=a religion with only one god). There are only very few Zoroastrians left in the world today. Learn more about their small community in Iran.
