Iranian Constitutional Revolution

The Iranian Constitutional Revolution (1905–1911) was a pivotal movement that aimed to limit monarchy's power and establish a constitutional government. Iranian citizens sought to modernize the political system, promote law-based governance, and secure civil rights. It led to the creation of the first Iranian constitution and parliamentary assembly, reducing the Shah’s autocratic authority. Influenced by democratic ideas and constitutional models from the West, the revolution marked Iran’s shift toward a more participatory political system, setting the stage for future reforms despite ongoing conflicts and external influences.
