The Franco-Persian War, which occurred from 1804 to 1813, was primarily provoked by geopolitical tensions between France and Russia over influence in Persia (modern-day Iran). France sought to expand its influence in the region and counter Russian expansionism, particularly after the Treaty of Tilsit in 1807, which had increased Russian authority in Central Asia. Additionally, internal Persian factors, such as the desire to assert independence from foreign powers, contributed to the conflict. The war ultimately reflected the broader struggle for dominance in the region involving European powers.
