Persis (griechisch; von altpersisch Pars-a/Parš-e; akkadisch Pars-u-aš/Pars-um-aš/Pars-ua, aramäisch Paras) war ursprünglich eine Bezeichnung einer Region unweit des Zagrosgebirges am Urmiasee. Die Landesbezeichnung Persien leitete sich direkt vom altpersischen Parsa ab. Im Laufe der Zeit verlagerte sich das Siedlungsgebiet in den Südwesten des heutigen Iran (das heutige Fars).
