Aryan Myth

The Aryan Myth refers to a historical and ideological concept that claims a "superior" original race called the Aryans, who supposedly migrated from a homeland into Europe and India, spreading civilization and culture. This idea gained prominence in the 19th and early 20th centuries and was later misused by Nazi Germany to promote racial superiority and justify discrimination. Modern scholarship rejects the notion of a singular "Aryan race," viewing it as a pseudoscientific concept with no basis in genetic or historical evidence. The myth is now recognized as an example of how racial ideas can be weaponized for political agendas.
