Iron
Iron is a chemical element; it has symbol Fe () and atomic number 26. It is a metal that belongs to the first transition series and group 8 of the periodic table. It is, by mass, the most common element on Earth, forming much of Earth's outer and inner core. It is the fourth most abundant element in the Earth's crust, being mainly deposited by meteorites in its metallic state. Extracting usable metal from iron ores requires kilns or furnaces capable of reaching , about 500 °C (900 °F) higher than that required to smelt copper. Humans started to master that process in Eurasia during the 2nd millennium BC and the use of iron tools and weapons began to displace copper alloys – in some regions, only around 1200 BC. That event is considered the transition from the Bronze Age to the Iron Age. In the modern world, iron alloys, such as steel, stainless steel, cast iron and special steels, are by far the most common industrial metals, due to their mechan ...

Iron, Aisne
Iron () is a commune in the Aisne department in Hauts-de-France in northern France. Population The Iron 12 On 25 February 1915 during the First World War there was a massacre of British soldiers in Iron. The soldiers' regiment had gotten cut off from the rest of the army, causing the regiment to split up and wait until the other British regiments came back. A French civilian named Vincente Chalandre and his family let eleven soldiers shelter in their attic, and the mill owner let them stay in the town's mill. A neighbour tipped them off to nearby German soldiers. The mill owner's daughter saw forty German soldiers entering the town and warned the soldiers they needed to leave. The soldiers hid outside the mill and thus were not captured. Clovis, Chalandre's son, was having an affair at the time with the 22-year old woman named Blanche Griselin, whose husband, a member of the French military, was not in Iron at the time. Griselin was actually holding a double affair involv ...

Iron Meteorite
Iron meteorites, also called siderites or ferrous meteorites, are a type of meteorite that consist overwhelmingly of an iron–nickel alloy known as meteoric iron that usually consists of two mineral phases: kamacite and taenite. Most iron meteorites originate from cores of planetesimals, with the exception of the IIE iron meteorite group. The iron found in iron meteorites was one of the earliest sources of usable iron available to humans, due to the malleability and ductility of the meteoric iron, before the development of smelting that signaled the beginning of the Iron Age. Occurrence Although they are fairly rare compared to the stony meteorites, comprising only about 5.7% of witnessed falls, iron meteorites have historically been heavily over-represented in meteorite collections. This is due to several factors: * They are easily recognized as unusual, as opposed to stony meteorites. Modern-day searches for meteorites in deserts and Antarctica yield a much more repre ...

Iron (people)
The Irons ( East Ossetian: Ирон ''Iron'', pl.: Ир ''Ir'', Ирӕттӕ ''Irættæ''; West Ossetian: Ирон ''Iron'', pl.: Ирӕ ''Irӕ'', Ирӕнттӕ ''Irænttæ'') are a subgroup of the Ossetians. They speak the Iron dialect of the Eastern Iranian Ossetian language. The majority of Irons profess Russian Orthodoxy and a small minority profess Sunni Islam mainly in the lowland villages of North Ossetia, while the Uatsdin faith has also been preserved by a minority of Irons. History The ethnonym Iron has the same root, '' arya'', as Iran and many Iranian-speaking peoples, including the precursors of the Iron, the Alana (Alans). Following the Mongol invasions of the 1200s and incursions by Tamerlane in the late 1300s, the Alans fled from their homeland to seek refuge in the remote Caucasian valleys while others were incorporated into the conquering society. The Alans who retreated into the Caucasus were unable to reform the Kingdom of Alania and eventually spl ...

Iron (political Party, 2023)
Iron (), officially, the Republican Socialist Party "Iron" () is a political party in the small Caucasian republic of South Ossetia, formed after the release of Georgiy Kabisov from prison. Kabisov, a vocal pro-Russian politician who was arrested on the charge of running an espionage ring to gather blackmail on members of the South Ossetian parliament, announced that he was going to be creating a political party named Iron, in reference to an earlier 2010 party of the same name, which in turn is a reference to the Iron dialect of Ossetian, as a new South Ossetian opposition party. History The party held its founding congress on April 8, 2023, the 22nd anniversary of the adoption of South Ossetia's common law. The party's organizing committee is headed by Zhanna Kochieva, a former member of parliament for United Ossetia and consists of 17 former high-ranking politicians including Yuri Dziztsoity and Georgiy Kabisov.

Iron (political Party, 2010)
Iron is the name of two political parties that existed in different points in time in the disputed state of South Ossetia, which the international community recognizes as part of Georgia. The first, from 2010, was founded by South Ossetian dissidents. History The original Iron was founded on May 22, 2010, by Timur Tskhovrebov during a founding congress at the Tskhinvali City Hall which also established the party's slogan as "Freedom-Fatherland-Law." The party's leadership has described itself as the only political party in South Ossetia not beholden to either the Government or the Russians and was seen as a successor to Roland Kelekhsayev's People's Party of South Ossetia, which would be hijacked by pro-Government politicians in 2009. Iron's first chairman of its governing council was Mukhar Sanakoyev. Shortly after the party was officially founded Tskhovrebov announced that neither he nor the party was opposed to the existence of South Ossetia, and that they were vehement ...

Iron Cove
Iron Cove is a bay on the Parramatta River, in the inner-west of Sydney, in the state of New South Wales, Australia. It is approximately due west of Sydney's central business district. It is surrounded by the suburbs of Birchgrove, Balmain, Rozelle, Lilyfield, Haberfield, Five Dock, Rodd Point, Russell Lea and Drummoyne. The bay extends from Longnose Point to the south-west and is fed by the Hawthorne Canal and the Iron Cove Creek. History William Dawes recorded the name of this place as ''Go-mo-ra'' in the language of the local people. In the early days of the colony of New South Wales, the area was sometimes known as Long Cove, presumably for its long narrow shape. The origin of the name 'Iron Cove' is unclear. On the 1822 survey map of Port Jackson (Sydney Harbour) by John Septimus Roe, Lieut. R.N. it is noted as Iron-stone Cove. Iron Cove appears to be a shortening of this name that perhaps referred to the reddy coloured iron oxides in the stone, known as ...
