Description
Summary:The main goal of Shah Reza Pahlavi's effort was to lead Iran from a medieval society to a super modern standard of living within a very short period of time. His attempts failed because huge demonstrations led by Ayatollahs and Mullahs made him leave the country in 19791 and they have established since, the Islamic Republic of Iran. The change itself is known as the Islamic Revolution, which in the eyes of many Iranians is claimed to be the first real revolution of thethird world because it is neither western nor communist.
