Best Answer

The country to which you may be referencing, is the Islamic republic of Iran. The aforementioned was known as Iran, or Persia, during the reign of Shah Reza Pahlavi, until he was overthrown, during what has come to be known as the Islamic Revolution, or Iranian Revolution, during the year 1979. I should be mentioned that Iran is the largest majority Shi'ite country in the world.
