Shah Reza Khan Pahlavi, later known as Reza Shah, was the founder of the Pahlavi dynasty in Iran and served as the Shah from 1925 until his abdication in 1941. He implemented a series of modernization and secularization reforms aimed at transforming Iran into a modern nation-state, while also centralizing power and reducing the influence of traditional institutions, particularly the clergy. His reign was marked by significant infrastructure improvements and economic development but also by authoritarian rule and repression of dissent. Reza Shah was forced to abdicate during World War II due to Allied pressure, and he was succeeded by his son, Mohammad Reza Pahlavi.
