16. Iran 101 (The Last 100 Years in Iran) - Part 1
Manage episode 345296340 series 3320524
A concise, foundational history of Iran from the late 1800s to mid-1950s.
What is the difference between Persia and Iran? What is a shah? Who were the major leaders from the late 1800s until 1953? When was oil discovered in Iran? How did the British and Russians influence Iran? Who was Mohammed Mossadegh and how did he affect the Iran we know today? We will learn the answers to these questions and more in this episode.
*Correction: When discussing the AIOC (Anglo Iranian Oil Company)'s revenue, I say 40 million dollars, but I what I meant is 40 million euros.
