  • , Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan. Greater Khorasan contained mostly Nishapur, Tus (now in Iran), Herat, Balkh, Kabul and Ghazni, Merv, Samarqand, Bukhara and Khiva, Khujand and Panjakent . These days, the adjective greater is partly used to distinguish it from Khorasan province, in modern-day Iran, that forms western parts of these territories, roughly half in area . It is also used to indicate that Greater Khorasan encompasses territories that were perhaps called by some other popular name when they were individually referred to. For example Transoxiana, Bactria, Kabulistan, Khwarezm . Until the devastating Mongol invasion of the thirteenth century, Khorasan was considered the cultural capital of Persia. (Lorentz 1995) (en)
