aryan race

The term "Aryan race" historically refers to a hypothetical racial group that was believed to be superior by certain theorists in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. It originated from Indo-Iranian and Indo-European linguistics, but was later distorted by racial ideologies, particularly by Nazi Germany, to promote ideas of white supremacy. However, it is important to acknowledge that the concept of an "Aryan race" is now widely discredited by the scientific community and is considered a social construct with no basis in reality.
