During the period of European Imperialism, the major European powers could not overthrow the Persian Regime, but neither was Persia truly able to resist the colonizers. As a result, Persia lost key northern territories to Russian advances, including areas now controlled by Azerbaijan, Armenia, and Turkmenistan. Persia also lost territories in historic Khorasan to the British and these territories have become part of Afghanistan and Pakistan.

Furthermore, the Russians and British created spheres of influence in Iran. The Russian sphere of influence was in the northern third of the country (including the capital of Tehran). The British sphere of influence was in the southeast quadrant of the country, close the colony of British India (now Pakistan).
