Iran

Historically, the Shah (King) of Iran was the most important figure. However, after the Shah was deposed in 1979 and the Islamic Republic installed, the Supreme Ayatollah became the most powerful person in Iran. The first Supreme Ayatollah was Ruhollah Khomeini and he was succeeded (upon death) by Ali Khamanei.

The USA, the UK, Canada, Australia. Afghanistan is not enemies with its neighbours.

"Center" referring to the capital of the Safavid empire: Tabriz, Qazvin, and Isfahan were all the capital of the Safavid empire at different points in its existence. Tabriz is located in the current East Azerbaijan Province. Qazvin is the current capital of the Province of Qazvin. Ishafan is the current capital of Isfahan Province. All are within the modern country of Iran.

Definitely yes. Even tapped water is drinkable in Tehran & most cities!

About half of Iranians live in the northwest of Iran in the area between the cities of Tabriz and Tehran. The remainder live in isolated areas or secondary cities, like Mashhad.

Yes. Iran is the only country that borders both the Caspian Sea and the Persian Gulf.

A lot! all of Iran is literally floating on a giant ocean of oil.

Yes, you can. You just have to take your green card along with your Iranian passport.

Natural gas. It has the second largest natural gas reserves in the world. Next to that is oil, which Iran has the third largest reserves in the world. ~ Tristen Bailey[chooseeither one that is on your answer choice]-auset

Iran is mostly Shiites who are deviated from the mainstream straight path of Islam; they visit the graves to perform some practice that invalidates the genuine creed of Islam such as asking the dead people to benefit them, help them or protect them etc. With regard to your question, it was the Khomeini who made the new regime on Iran in 1979. Thx.

In Iran there were lots of civilization and they found oldest civilization of the world in Iran and it called <jiroft> you can look it up but nobody is sure yet., maybe some where in the world we will find an older civilization.

I just have seen one thing that there was written "made in USA" and it is the tobacco captain black ( beause it is a great thing to kill people).

They met them in battle a number of times such as Thermopylae and Marathon, but they also gave money, weapons, and men to some Greek states that were opposing the Persians on the other side of the Aegean.

It is the capital of Turkmenistan. (transliterated from Russian, the spelling is Ashkhabad).

Iran is east off the eastern coast of Saudi Arabia, but between Saudi Arabia and Iran lies the island-nation of Bahrain.

The Imperial State of Iran (1935-1979) and the Islamic Republic of Iran (1979-Present) have not themselves started any international conflicts. They have, however, been responsible for internal military action both against armed belligerents and unarmed protesters, funded proxy organizations which have themselves started wars, and supported regimes in other countries which have started wars. (The Iran-Iraq War, which was the largest Iranian war in recent history, was caused by Iraq's invasion of Iranian Khuzestan.)

The largest war that Iran caused directly is the Iranian-Baloch insurgency. Repression of Baloch rights in the southeast of the country has led the Baloch to take up arms against the Republican Guard which had previously been harassing them. Similar confrontations occurred nearly 70 years ago in northwestern Iran as concerns the Kurds.

Hezbollah and, more recently, Hamas have direct funding from Iran along with objectives attached to those funds (with which these organizations are all too willing to apply). They have manifested belligerent behavior against Israel such as rocket/missile attacks on civilians and kidnapping of soldiers. Additionally these organizations have also started wars against fellow Lebanese (Hezbollah) and fellow Palestinians and Egyptians (Hamas) in pursuit of increased political power in those places.

Iran directly supports the Assad Regime in Syria which is fighting a relentless war against those Syrians who would wish to see more democratic reforms in the country. Iran urges the Syrians to "fight strongly against those terrorists".

In 592 BCE the Kushites, under attack from a Greek-Carian mercenary force, moved to Meroe, 240 km southeast of Napata on the other side of the Nile.

After the Persian invasion was repelled, Sparta left the ongoing wars and turned its attention to controlling revolts by its large serf population. It headed the Peloponnesian League which came into conflict with Athens after the Persian war was over and Athens turned the Delian League it had led into the war into an empire of its own. This conflict led to the Peloponnesian War in which Athens was defeated and Sparta became the dominant power in the Greek world for the next 30 years, when the constant wars amongst the Greek city-states so weakened Sparta that it was displaced by Thebes, and faded out of power.

It really depends on the route you take. If you fly to KL with Iran air and then take a flight to Singapore, It would be around 9-10 hours total but flying to one of the Arab countries from tehran and then going to Singapore might take longer. However it all depends on the weather conditions etc. I have travelled the route quiet a few times never got there in less than 8:40 and the longest took me about 11 coming from s'pore to tehran.

When the Shah was deposed in 1979, the country was turned into an Islamic theocracy led by the Ayatollah Khomenei. Under the Shah, other religions were tolerated and free to worship as they pleased. Under theocratic rule, certain religions are actively persecuted, most notably the Baha'i Faith which (among other atrocities) has had its cemeteries bulldozed.

Of particular importance to Americans, Iranians stormed the American embassy in Teheran and abducted its staff for 444 days. This is called the Iranian Hostage Crisis.
