The Iranian Revolution began in 1978 as discontent with the Western-backed Shah erupted in demonstrations. Ayatollah Khomeini emerged as a leader of the opposition and helped establish an Islamic republic after the Shah fled in 1979. In 1980, Iraq invaded Iran starting the Iran-Iraq War in an attempt to gain control of a waterway, but neither side achieved major territorial gains before a ceasefire. Relations between the U.S. and Iran remain tense today due to ongoing disputes dating back to the 1979 revolution and subsequent hostage crisis.

The Iran-Iraq War began in 1980 when Iraq invaded Iran and lasted until 1988. There were several longstanding territorial disputes over the Shatt al-Arab waterway and religious and ideological tensions between the two countries' governments that contributed to the outbreak of war. Iraq's leader Saddam Hussein hoped to take advantage of Iran's weakened military and divided new revolutionary government to achieve influence in the region. The war resulted in over a million casualties before a UN-brokered ceasefire.

Saddam Hussein was born in 1937 in Iraq and lived with his uncle after his father passed away. He joined the Ba'ath party in 1957 and gained control of the Iraqi government in 1979 when he became president. Saddam invaded Iran in 1980 to gain control of their oil fields, starting the Iran-Iraq war which ended in stalemate in 1988. In 1990, Saddam invaded Kuwait to boost Iraq's economy with their oil revenues but was met with international sanctions. Saddam Hussein was finally captured by U.S. troops in 2003 hiding in a hole on a farm near his hometown of Tikrit.

Saddam Hussein was able to rise to power in Iraq through his involvement in the Ba'ath Party and careful consolidation of power over several decades. He supported Ahmad Hassan al-Bakr's rise to become Prime Minister, and was then rewarded with influential positions within the Ba'ath Party leadership. Saddam later helped orchestrate a 1968 coup that removed the President, allowing al-Bakr to take over as President with Saddam as his powerful deputy. Through purges, building his security forces, and eliminating potential rivals, Saddam was able to become the undisputed leader of Iraq in 1979 when he took over as President from the aging al-Bakr.

The Kurds are an ethnic group of approximately 20-25 million people who have lived in the mountainous Kurdistan region for over 2,000 years but have never had an independent nation of their own. Throughout their history, the Kurdish lands have been occupied and divided between Turkey, Iran, Syria, and Iraq, with the Kurdish populations facing repression. In the 20th century, the Kurds engaged in uprisings against occupying powers to fight for autonomy and independence, but faced brutal crackdowns. Today, Iraqi Kurds have gained some autonomy and self-rule, but the dream of an independent Kurdistan continues.

Al Qaeda is an Islamist extremist group founded in the late 1980s by Osama Bin Laden and Abdullah Azzam with the goals of ending foreign influence in the Middle East and achieving a worldwide Islamist government. It is known for catastrophic attacks including the September 11 attacks that killed nearly 3,000 people in New York City in 2001. While its main stronghold was historically the cave networks on the Afghan-Pakistani border, the US War on Terror has left the group destabilized and decentralized, playing a smaller role in terrorism than it once did.
