When the days of testing were fulfilled and the true natures of his sons revealed, King Fereydun unveiled his grand design, dividing the broad domain of the Earth into three great realms. The first division comprised Rome and the western lands; the second encompassed Turan, the lands of the Turks, and China; while the third and central realm was the precious hearth of brave warriors—Iran-Zamin.
The monarch first looked upon his eldest son, Salm, bestowing upon him Rome and the West as suited his temperament. At the king's command, a glittering host was chosen, and Salm marched westwards in grandeur. Ascending the royal throne of that realm, the people hailed him as the Lord of the West, submitting to his sovereignty.
Next, Fereydun granted the lands of Turan to his middle son, Tur, appointing him lord over the Turks and the empire of China. Outfitted with a majestic army, Tur set forth to his appointed realm. As he seated himself upon the Kayanid throne, the grandees showered gems over his crown, hailing him as the pure King of Turan.
Finally, when the turn came for Iraj, the youngest and purest of his sons, Fereydun deemed none but him worthy of the sovereign crown of Iran. He bestowed upon Iraj the heartland of Iran, the Plain of the Spear-Wielders, the supreme throne, the royal seal, and the ivory seat of power. Thus, all three brothers entered into their inheritance in peace and rejoicing, established as fortunate rulers across the three corners of the world.
