Zoroastrianism was once the state religion of Sassanid empire, and played an important role in the preceding Parthian and Achaemenid empires as well. The religion, which is also known as Mazdaism, began in what is today Central Asia and was once predominant in the areas stretching from eastern shores of the Mediterranean Sea to the Indus river. Although its followers once numbered in the millions, its adherents today number far fewer, with clusters remaining in India and Iran. Nonetheless, the religion remains very much alive and dynamic.
