Evaz

Evaz receives minimal rainfall, estimated to be approximately 7.5 cm (3 inches) on average per year.

Summers are hot and dry with temperatures reaching as high as 46 °C during the day.

Winters are usually cold and similarly dry. Spring and autumn provide a more moderate and pleasant climate.

Temperatures usually drop at night time throughout the year due to being geographically situated in a valley.

Due to a history of mass migration, the precise number of Evazis in the world is difficult to determine at this stage. Many have migrated to other countries, majority of whom to the Arab states of the Persian Gulf (due to the close proximity and cultural ties), some have moved to Europe in countries such as Sweden and more recently to the US and Canada have also hosted significant migration. It has been estimated that approximately 7,000 are outside Evaz but in Iran. It is estimated that at least half a million of Larestanis people of which about 50,000 are of Evazi origin are estimated to live in Arab States of the Persian Gulf.

The spoken language of Evaz is a dialect form of Achomi vernacular to Evazi, which is distinct from a language with the influence of other languages making up the mix of Achomee or Larestani ethnic. It is also maintained by some that it is sister to New Persian though it is difficult to verify this claim since the grammatical structure of Evazi Achomi language is different from its Persian counterpart, though many common vocabularies exist in both. The word "Achomi" is used by Persian Gulf Arab citizens of Larestani ethnicity.

Evazi language is a form of the ancient Persian language. Compared to the other present day Iranian languages, it has the fewest Arabic or other foreign languages.

Today, Evazi as a mother tongue is being increasingly abandoned by the younger generation in favour of Persian, Arabic or English. Among the Evazis who have migrated to other countries, many still speak the Evazi dialect at home. However, the large majority of migrants from previous generations have adopted their new domicile's language as either a first or second language. In many cases, the cultural roots of those whose families have migrated several decades ago have been eroded and replaced by the new language of necessity. The most prominent example of this is a large number of Arab nationals of the Cooperation Council for the Arab States of the Gulf (especially in Bahrain, U.A.E. and Qatar) with Evazi (Larestani) roots that have for the most part replaced Evazi with Arabic over the years. Even the word Evaz is now predominantly replaced with "Awadh"

Except for 1% or 2% of Evazis of African ethnicity whose ancestors were brought to Evaz for domestic work (To editors: This phrase was part of my sentence and has been incorrectly edited by the previous member), like the rest of the fellow Larestani Ethnic, they are a mix of Arab, Afghan, Baluch, Lur, Persian due to the consecutive migratory interactions as well as invasions which have occurred within the region of Larestan.

Except for 1% or 2% of the Evazis of African ethnicity whose ancestors were brought to Evaz for domestic work, the rest of Evazis are of Persian ethnicity.

Evaz is one of the few towns in Fars to aggressively develop its academic infrastructure. In 2011, there were four kindergartens, ten elementary schools, eight secondary schools and six high schools in Evaz. It is well known that the people of Evaz have the highest rate of education per capita amongst their fellow Larestani counterparts.

As opposed to most other parts of Iran, Sunni Islam is the dominant religion in Evaz.[5]

Evazi people like most of the Larestanis celebrate the customary holidays and events observed by the GCC as well as the traditional Persian such as Mehrgan, Yalda, Tirgan except Nowruz as it is the traditional Persian new year calendar.
