What is the reason why Central Asian countries are called "Stan" and what is its meaning?

On today's earth, there are 196 recognized countries in the world, which have their own unique names and dazzling cultures, making the world full of diversity. But when we set our eyes on Central Asia, it will be very strange to find that the names of the countries here are all "Stan", and even in our country's records, they used to be called "Stan". So why are all Central Asian countries "Stan"? What the hell does this mean? It turns out that China also has an alias "Stan".

The word "Stan" is used as a place name suffix in the names of these countries in Central Asia and written as "Stan" or "Stan". This is a word derived from ancient Persian. During the period around 600 BC, the ancient Persian language prevailed during the Achaemenid Empire, which is also one of the proofs of the ancient Iranian language. The inscription of Bethesda in 535 BC discovered by British scholar Luo Yu 1835 is the best evidence.

In the 7th century, Islam was established in Arabia. With this religion, ancient Persia began to sweep through the nearby areas until it spread throughout Central Asia. Holo, the ancient land of Central Asia, was once called "Tuholostan", which means where the Tuholo people are, and this also means the word "Stan".

China was called "Chinnastan" in ancient times because of the translation of the Armenian name "Chinnastan". The name Armenia comes from Indian Sanskrit words "c and c and Cīnasthāna", namely "Sinian".

There is such a record in the Buddhist scriptures that "the east is an earthquake and the east is a sunrise, so it is an aurora cloud." In ancient times, the west first called us "Aurora" from Indian Buddhism. In Greek geography in the second century, there were records of China's "Qin Stan" and "Qin Ni", and ancient Chang 'an was even called "Kendan".

1903 On February 27th, Father Ma founded the first private university in the history of China-Aurora College. 1905, Ma, who was controlled by the Christian church, re-established Fudan University, and the name of the school came from "The Sun and the Moon shine on people, Dan Fudan" in Shangshu Yuxia Biography. Aurora college is the predecessor of Fudan University, a top college in China.

But in Central Asia, there is a country with a special name "Stan", and that is Palestine. The word "Stan" here comes from ancient Semitic language. In the 20th century BC, Sumerian Canaanites settled in the Palestinian plain and were eventually demolished after numerous explorations.

The present Palestine was founded in BC 1988, and was composed of immigrants from the Mediterranean and Egypt in BC 12 and BC 13. At that time, there was a word "PALASTIM" in the address of foreigners, which also showed that the name of ancient Palestine was used to refer to the gathering place of a group of foreigners, not the meaning in ancient Persian.

After the Romans occupied the Mediterranean in the 2nd century A.D., they adopted the Greek name "Felix" for Palestine at that time, because there were many Philistines living in Palestine. With the demise of this nation, the word "Palestine" from Greek Latin began to be recognized by people, and finally formed today's Palestine.

"Stan" is still used to mean "land" in ancient Persia. These country names reflect their respective historical and cultural heritages and are of great significance. China's title of "Chinnastan" has long been replaced by "China", but Armenia still regards "Stan" as a tradition and refuses to change its name. We also respect this culture very gracefully and recognize their titles.
