United States of AmericaPahlavi Iran, officially the Imperial State of Iran, or Imperial State of Persia to the West, was the Westernized and modernized Iranian state under the rule of the 
Pahlavi Dynasty. Established in 1925 and overthrown by a lunatic 
communist–Islamist 
coalition in 1979, he was the final dynasty of the 2,500-year-old Iranian 
monarchy.
History
Reza Khan, an officer in the 
Persian Cossack Brigade, seized control of the government and established the Pahlavi Dynasty by overthrowing the declining Qajar. Iran took inspiration partially on the reforms of 
Atatürk in 
Turkey, doing some state-building and 
secular 
nationalism. Reza was declared Shah in 1925, and Iran became Westernized and modernized, commissioningd the Trans-Iranian Railway and expanding public education. Iran made policies like compulsory Western dress, reduced the 
judicial and 
social influence of the 
Muslim clergy, and banned the hijab.
Because of his sympathies toward 
Nazi Germany during World War II, the 
Allied Powers invaded and occupied him in 1941, forcing Reza Shah to abdicate in favor of his son, 
Mohammad Reza, who took power during a politically unstable period and soon became an 
authoritarian ruler.
In April 1951, 
Mohammad Mossadegh was named by the 
Majles as prime minister by a vote of 79–12. Shortly afterward, he 
nationalized the 
British-owned oil industry. The Shah opposed Mossadegh's actions, fearing that a Western-imposed oil embargo and a lack of domestic technical expertise would leave Iran in economic ruin. After a two-year political struggle, the Shah briefly left the country but returned following a coup orchestrated by British and 
American intelligence against Mossadegh on 19 August 1953. Mossadegh was subsequently arrested by pro-Shah army forces.
The White Revolution launched in 1963, which was a massive 
economic and social reform program that included land reforms, widespread literacy campaigns, and granting 
women the right to vote.
Due to Mohammad Reza's rapid modernization of Iran, Muslim groups hated this. Shah was also outspoken 
anti-communist, so the Muslims convinced the communists to ally with them, overthrowing the Shah in 1979 in what's known as the "
Islamic Revolution", establishing the 
Interim Government of Iran.
