It was conquered by ], but soon after Persia regained its independence in the form of the ]n and ] Empires. The latter was defeated by ]ic Arab forces in the ] AD, who were followed by ], the ], and ]. | |||
| The ] saw renewed independence with the ] and then other lines of kings or '']s''. During the ] Persia came under pressure from both ] and the ] and a process of modernisation began that continued into the ]. In ], prime minister ], who had been elected to parliament in ] and again in ], and who had been ] since ], was removed from power in a complex plot orchestrated by British and US intelligence agencies, leading to the ] of the shah (Iran's ]), ]. With strong support from the ] and the ], the Shah further modernised Iranian industry but crushed ]. His ] rule, including systematic ] and other human rights violations, led to ] and overthrow of his regime in ]. After over a year of struggle between a variety of different political groups, an ] was established under the ]. | |||
| The new ] regime instituted many conservative and often repressive Islamic reforms, as well as engaging in an anti-Western course, in particular against the ]. Strict ] was implemented, and women lost many of their rights. ]s, such as torture and violent executions continue. In ] Iran was attacked by neighbouring ] and the destructive ] continued until ]. However, in more recent years, the ] political structure has led to the election of many reformist politicians, including the president, ]. During the first decade of the ], the struggle for power between reformists and conservatives over the future of the country continues through a mix of electoral politics and restrictions on ]. | |||
| == Politics == | |||
| ''Main article: ]'' | |||
| Since the revolution of ] the Iranian ] is the Leader of the Revolution or ''faqih'', or in absence of a single leader a council of religious leaders. They are elected from the clerical establishment on the basis of their qualifications and the high popular esteem in which they are held. The faqih appoints the six religious members of the 12-member ], as well as the highest judicial authorities and is commander-in-chief of the armed forces. | |||
| The ] is elected by universal suffrage to a 4-year term by an absolute majority of votes and supervises the affairs of the ]. All presidential candidates must be approved by the Council prior to running. After his election, the president appoints and supervises the Council of Ministers (the ]), coordinates government decisions, and selects government policies to be placed before the parliament. The Council of Guardians certifies the competence of candidates for the presidency and the parliament. | |||
| The ] Iranian ], the Islamic Consultative Assembly or ''Majles-e-Shura-ye-Eslami'', consists of 290 members elected to a 4-year term. The members are elected by direct and ]. All legislation from the assembly must be reviewed by the Council of Guardians. The Council's six lay-members, all lawyers appointed by parliament, vote only on limited questions of the ]ality of legislation; the six religious members consider all bills for conformity to Islamic principles. | |||
| Political parties are technically illegal, though many informal organisations of politically like-minded people exist. | |||

| == Geography == | |||
| ''Main article: ]'' | |||
| The Iranian landscape is dominated by rugged mountain ranges that separate various basins or plateaus from one another. The populous western part is the most mountainous, with ranges such as the ] and ], the latter of which also contains Iran's highst point, the ] at 5,607 m. The eastern half consists mostly of uninhabited ] basins with the occasional ]. | |||
| The only large plains are found along the coast of the ] and at the northern end of the ], where Iran borders on the mouth of the ]. Smaller, discontinuous plains are found along the remaining coast of the Persian Gulf, the ] and the ]. The Iranian ] is mostly arid or semiarid, though subtropical along the Caspian coast. | |||
| == Economy == | |||
| ''Main article: ]'' | |||
| Iran's economy is a mixture of central planning, state ownership of ] and other large enterprises, village ], and small-scale private trading and service ventures. The current administration has continued to follow the market reform plans of the previous one and has indicated that it will pursue diversification of Iran's oil-reliant economy. | |||
| The strong oil market in ] helped ease financial pressures on Iran and allowed for Tehran's timely debt service payments. Iran's financial situation tightened in ] and deteriorated further in ] because of lower oil prices. The subsequent rise in oil prices in ]-] afforded Iran fiscal breathing room but does not solve Iran's structural economic problems, including the encouragement of foreign investment. | |||
| == Demographics == | |||
| ''Main article: ]'' | |||
| Almost two-thirds of Iran's people are of ] origin and speak one of the ], though only ] (''Farsi''), which is written in the ], is an official language. The major groups in this category include Persians (51%), ] (8%), ] (7%), ] (2%), and ] (2%). The remainder are primarily ] people such as the ] (24%) and ] (2%), but also include ] (3%), ]ns, ], and ]ns and others. ], being the language of the ], is taught in schools as well. | |||
| Most Iranians are Muslims; 89% belong to the ] branch of ], the official state religion, and about 10% belong to the ] branch, which predominates in most Muslim countries. Non-Muslim religious minorities include ]s and ], both being religions that originated in Iran, as well as ] and ]. Only the latter three are officially recognised minority religions.
