For over 2,500 years, the land of Iran has been the heart of empires, revolutions, and spiritual awakenings — a cradle of civilization and power in the ancient world.

From the rise of the mighty Achaemenid Empire under Cyrus the Great, to the conquests of Alexander the Great, and the golden age of Persian science, poetry, and philosophy — Iran has shaped the world in profound ways.

It has withstood Mongol invasions, dynastic shifts, and centuries of foreign influence — from the Safavids’ transformation of Iran into a Shia stronghold, to the Qajar and Pahlavi eras of modernization and turmoil.

Then came the 20th century.

Oil, war, and revolution would thrust Iran onto the global stage. The 1979 Islamic Revolution changed the nation forever — toppling the Shah, establishing a theocracy, and setting the stage for decades of tension with the West.

From Persepolis to Tehran, from Zoroaster to Khomeini, from empire to republic — this is the entire story of one of the world’s most ancient, complex, and resilient nations.

To understand Iran — its legacy, its struggles, and its place in today’s world — we must start from the beginning.
