Guarded Domains Of Iran
The Guarded Domains of Iran (, ''Mamâlek-e Mahruse-ye Irân''), or simply the Domains of Iran (, ''Mamâlek-e Irân'') and the Guarded Domains (, ''Mamâlek-e Mahruse''), was the common and official name of Iran from the Safavid era until the early 20th century. The idea of the "Guarded Domains" was formed by a feeling of territorial and political uniformity in a society with shared cultural elements such as the Persian language, monarchy, and Shia Islam. The concept had previously been used in the form of Eranshahr, the official name of Iran under the Sasanian Empire (224–651), which promoted the concept of Iran as a protected political unit ruled by the state and with a distinct geographical region. Iran's loss of territory under the Qajars in the 19th century led to a new understanding of the Guarded Domains and the extent of the Iranian lands. There were limitations on the authority that the Guarded Domains had over Greater Iran; they lost territories such as the Caucasi ...

Treaties Of The Qajar Dynasty
A treaty is a formal, legally binding written agreement between sovereign states and/or international organizations that is governed by international law. A treaty may also be known as an international agreement, protocol, covenant, convention, pact, or exchange of letters, among other terms; however, only documents that are legally binding on the parties are considered treaties under international law. Treaties may be bilateral (between two countries) or multilateral (involving more than two countries). Treaties are among the earliest manifestations of international relations; the first known example is a border agreement between the Sumerian city-states of Lagash and Umma around 3100 BC. International agreements were used in some form by most major civilizations and became increasingly common and more sophisticated during the early modern era. The early 19th century saw developments in diplomacy, foreign policy, and international law reflected by the widespread use of treat ...

British Occupation Of Bushehr
The British occupations of Bushehr or Bushire under British occupation refers to the three times British forces entered Bushehr and occupied this area in Iran during the rule of the Qajar dynasty, before and during World War I. Background According to ''Encyclopædia Iranica'', the British East India Company had a presence in Bushehr since 1763 due to its commercial importance. Later, due to the interference of the Iranian ruler Karim Khan Zand, the Company concentrated on the port of Basra, but following the capture of Basra by Karim Khan Zand, in 1778 the British re-established their commercial base in the Persian Gulf in Bushehr and continued to increase their influence in the Gulf for about a century. Occupations First occupation (1838) The first occupation of Bushehr was in 1838 (''1217 SH - 1254 AH'') during the reign of Mohammad Shah Qajar, when a British ship anchored in front of Bushehr, and 500 people disembarked and settled in Kuti (one of the old neighbourhoods of ...

Franco-Persian Alliance
A Franco-Persian alliance or Franco-Iranian alliance was formed for a short period between the French Empire of Napoleon I and Fath Ali Shah of Iran against Russia and Great Britain between 1807 and 1809. The alliance was part of a plan to gather extra aid against Russia and by Persia's help, having another front on Russia's southern borders, namely the Caucasus region. The alliance unravelled when France finally allied with Russia and turned its focus to European campaigns. Background Due to the traditional friendly relations of France with the Ottoman Empire formalized by a long-standing Franco-Ottoman alliance, the relations of France with Iran had long been minimal. Instead, a Habsburg-Persian alliance had developed during the 16th century, and when Persian embassies visited Europe with the Persian embassy to Europe (1599–1602) and the Persian embassy to Europe (1609–1615), they pointedly avoided France. First rapprochement Later however, France developed relations ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |
