Bahram VII

Bahram VII (Middle Persian: 𐭥𐭦𐭤𐭦𐭭, Wahrām, Persian: بهرام هفتم‎‎, Bahrām) was the son of Yazdegerd III, the last Shahanshah of the Sasanian Empire. After the death of his father at Merv in 651, Bahram fled to China along with many other Sasanian nobles, where he and his brother Peroz III asked the Chinese Emperor Gaozong to support them in their fight against the Arabs. Bahram repeatedly tried to recapture the occupied Iranian territories from the Arabs, which he did not succeed in.

Bahram died in 710, his son, Prince Khosrau (Chinese: Juluo), continued his father's military efforts. However, Khosrau's campaigns and his first successful invasion into Persia were eventually unsuccessful.
