The historical region of Larestan & Lamerd consists of several counties in Fars province (Lar, Khonj, Gerash County, Lamerd) and Bastak County in Hormozgan.
Larestani people speak the Larestani language.[3] Larestani people are of Persian descent,[4] the majority of Larestani people are Sunni Muslims.[4][5][6][7] Larestani people call themselves "Khodmooni".
Under medieval age, Laristan was ruled by the local dynasty of Miladi, until it was removed by a Safavid invasion in 1610. In the thirteenth century, Larestan briefly became a center of trade and commerce in southern Persia.[4] Larestan was nearly always an obscure region, never becoming involved in the politics and conflicts of mainstream Persia.[4]
At the 2011 census, Larestan county's population was 677,416 people.[1] including zarownees
