In the late 1970s, the world witnessed an extraordinary event that would reshape the political landscape of the Middle East: the Iranian Revolution. From its inception in 1979, this revolution would prove to be a pivotal moment in Iranian history and have far-reaching consequences for both regional and international affairs. Fueled by deep-rooted societal discontent and led by the charismatic Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, the revolution unfolded against the backdrop of economic turmoil, political repression, and growing anti-Western sentiment in Iran. With the overthrow of the Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, the Iranian Revolution marked a critical turning point that established Iran as an Islamic Republic and set the stage for significant geopolitical transformations throughout the following decades.
