 In January 1978, incensed by what they considered to be slanderous remarks made against Khomeini in Eṭṭelāʿāt, a Tehrān newspaper, thousands of young madrassa (religious school) students took to the streets. They were followed by thousands more Iranian youth—mostly unemployed recent immigrants from the countryside—who began protesting the regime’s excesses. The shah, weakened by cancer and stunned by the sudden outpouring of hostility against him, vacillated between concession and repression, assuming the protests to be part of an international conspiracy against him. Many people were killed by government forces in anti-regime protests, serving only to fuel the violence in a Shīʿite country where martyrdom played a fundamental role in religious expression. Fatalities were followed by demonstrations to commemorate the customary 40-day milestone of mourning in Shīʿite tradition, and further casualties occurred at those protests, mortality and protest propelling one another forward. Thus, in spite of all government efforts, a cycle of violence began in which each death fueled further protest, and all protest—from the secular left and religious right—was subsumed under the cloak of Shīʿite Islam and crowned by the revolutionary rallying cry Allāhu akbar (“God is great”), which could be heard at protests and which issued from the rooftops in the evenings.BRITANNICA STORIESIN THE NEWS / HISTORYU.K. Prime Minister May Sends EU Breakup LetterPrime Minister Theresa May signs the official letter to European Council President Donald Tusk, March 28, 2017, invoking Article 50 of the bloc’s key treaty, the formal start of exit negotiations from the European Union.DEMYSTIFIED / FOODWhy Is a Baker’s Dozen 13?Bakers Dozen of Donuts, or Paczki’sSPOTLIGHT / HISTORYThe Legacy of Order 9066 and Japanese American InternmentA store owner’s response to anti-Japanese sentiment in the wake of the Pearl Harbor attack, Oakland, Calif., 1942.IN THE NEWS / ANIMALSSea Otters’ Tool Use May Date Back Thousands or Even Millions of YearsSea Otter eating(Enhydra lutris)During his exile, Khomeini coordinated this upsurge of opposition—first from Iraq and after 1978 from France—demanding the shah’s abdication.

The Iranian revolution was a spooky time in which the Shah at the time was not well liked by the people of Iran because he was American picked. He had moved away from the traditions of the Islamic faith which had been central to the culture of Iran for a good long while. Life had turned for the better with more Western culture, but people did not like that, so a revolution began in which radicals took over the government and brought about some more traditional stuff. The Ayatollah Khomeini was the one he changed the culture back to a traditional one.  I want to learn about the Shah.

The safavid persian empire took over in the 1500's, the introduction of islam spread over from the rise of Mongol invasion left the middle east in ruins. The later succession laws left the state of the middle east to its own khanid. The rise of the Shia took main control over the region. The area ruled for most 15-16 cent until the dominant Ottomans, risen from the turks who created the state of Rum. They had conflicting status with Persia.
