This article examines the historical depth of Iran's civilization, presenting evidence that supports its recognition as one of the oldest continuous statehoods on Earth. Based on analysis of archaeological findings, historical records, and recent rankings by international organizations, the article reconstructs Iran's remarkable trajectory from the Proto-Elamite period through the rise of successive empires to the present day. Particular attention is devoted to the Elamite civilization, the Achaemenid Empire's innovations, and the concept of "continuous sovereignty" that distinguishes Iran in global rankings of national longevity.

С позиций фундаментальной онтологии Мартина Хайдеггера и определяемых посредством неё первого и второго (другого) начал философии дается понимание нынешнего состояния цивилизации и места человека в ней. В такой оптике происходящие сейчас преобразования мира обретают новый для преобладающей части социума смысл – в значительной степени далекий от безудержного оптимизма. From the positions of Martin Heidegger's fundamental ontology and the first and second (other) principles of philosophy defined by it, an understanding of the current state of civilization and the place of man in it is given. In such optics, the current transformations of the world are acquiring a new meaning for the predominant part of society - largely far from unbridled optimism.
