1. IRANIAN
REVOLUTION
1978

2. Who Revolted?
The citizens and residences of Iran wanted to change the Iran government.
Religious figures were Hindu, Muslim, Christian or others.
People with different careers such as people working for oil companies, or education careers wanted to make this change.

3. Why Did They Revolt?
The people wanted to change their government because it has had many errors and wrong actions caused by Mohammad Reza Shah.
The government was a monarchy.
The people wanted the Shah to abide by the Iranian Constitution, which he wasn't.
The people tried going on strike and protesting, that didn't work so a revolution began.

4. How Did They Organize?
Islamic groups and others rebelled, protested and went on strike in the town Qom.
There was no actual leaders within the rebellions.
The Shah would soon have to impeach.

5. How Did The People Overthrow The Government?
During rebellions, the army arrived to minimize any conflicts that might have arose.
The army ended up killing a lot of people, including younger students.
In February others marched in honor of the people that died, while protesting against Shah.
In November 1978 the economy crumbled.

6. How Did The Government Respond?
The Shah did not give in peacefully, or quickly.
Throughout Iran there was a lot of bloodshed, 400 civilians were killed at a movie theater.
10,000 citizens and relatives of these innocent people gathered for a mass, funeral, and a march dedicated to the people that were killed.
The impeachment of Shah was done very violently, because he wouldn't change.

7. How Did The Government Change?
The government changed after the revolution, for the better.
This revolution affected all the citizens because of the change.
The Iranian Revolution was one of the most effective revolutions ever.

8. Will It Effect Other Countries? How?
I don't think the end of this one countries revolution will effect other countries because it is just changing the government. The revolution may effect countries surrounding Iran, from all the bloodshed. But then end result will not effect anyone but Iran.
Thank you!
