The Persian race of people live in Iran and the Arab race of people live in Iraq.That alone makes quite a difference.Secondly Iranians speak Farsi,and have their own alphabet system.In Iraq they speak Arabic and have a different alphabet system.Iraq and Iran were a war for very many years with many being killed on each side. Iran is fascinated with the west and the culture,they listen to the same rock and roll and pop music,and know all the groups(U-2,Rolling Stones,etc),and they like to dress like westerners.When the Shah was in power the country was very westernized like any US city,and only some customs and language was,and is,different.
