| - | The '''Iranian Revolution''' was the [[1979]] [[revolution]] that transformed [[Iran]] from an autocratic pro-west [[Iranian monarchy|monarchy]] under the [[Shah]], [[Mohammad Reza Pahlavi]], to an Islamic [[theocracy]] under the rule of [[Ayatollah]] [[Khomeini]]. The revolution is divided into two stages: the first saw an alliance of liberal, leftist, and religious groups oust the Shah; the second stage, often named the Islamic Revolution, saw the Ayatollahs come to power. | ||
