Tabarestan (English spelling)

Japanese: タバレスターン(英語表記)Tabarestān
Tabarestan (English spelling)
A region of Iran on the southeastern coast of the Caspian Sea. It borders Gorgan to the east, Gilan to the west, and the Elburz Mountains to the south. It is the old name of Māzanderān, and its name comes from the fact that it was the home of the Tapur tribe in ancient times. It was called this name until the 13th century. Because it was not politically important, it was the last of the former Sassanid territories to be Islamized, and it maintained its independence until the mid-8th century, more than a century after the other regions were conquered by the Arabs. During the late Abbasid period, Āmol was its capital, and under the Tahirid dynasty, Sāri was its capital.

Japanese:
カスピ海南東岸のイランの一地方。東はゴルガーン,西はギーラーン,南はエルブルズ山脈に接する。マーザンデラーンMāzanderānの古名で,この名称は古代にタプルTapūr族の住地であったことに由来する。13世紀までこの呼称が用いられた。政治的に重要でなかったため,イスラム化は旧ササン朝領で最も遅く,他地方がアラブに征服されてから1世紀以上もたった8世紀半ばまで独立を保っていた。アッバース朝後期にはアーモルĀmol,ターヒル朝下ではサーリーSārīが主都であった。
