About This Novel
In 1501, Shiite Iran was born and fought against the Sunni Ottoman Empire. In the late 18th century, the divided Iran was reunited, but decades later it became a military training ground for Britain and Russia. In 1908, oil was first discovered in Iran. Soon after, Iranian oil was shipped to Europe, disrupting the battlefield of World War I. During the Cold War, the United States regarded Iran as a regional ally to counterbalance the Soviet Union.

The replacement of 5 dynasties, at least 3 revolutions, 3 civil wars, 4 foreign occupations, and the establishment of an Islamic Republic... Thoroughly explain why Iran has become a bellwether for the world situation!
