   بزرگترین شهر ایران ― bozorgtarin šahr-e irân ― largest city in Iran

2. (obsolete) land, country, realm
   • c. 1011, Abu'l-Qāsim Firdawsī, “The Tale of Rustam and Isfandiyār”, in شاهنامه [Book of Kings]‎^[6]:

     چو او شهر ایران به گشتاسپ داد
     نیامد ترا هیچ زان تخت یاد
     سوی او یکی نامه ننوشته‌ای
     از آرایش بندگی گشته‌ای

     When he gave the realm of Iran to Gushtāsp,
     You did not remember that throne at all;
     You did not write a single letter to him,
     You turned away from the adornment of vassalage.
