Iran, historically known as Persia, is located in Western Asia. In 1935, Reza Shah Pahlavi officially changed the country's name to Iran. Iran has over 2,500 years of history and was home to several ancient empires and dynasties. In 1979, the Islamic Revolution transformed Iran from a monarchy to an Islamic republic led by Ayatollah Khomeini. Today, Iran has a population of nearly 70 million people, most of whom are Shi'a Muslims, and has a mixed economy dominated by oil and gas exports.
The document provides background information on the Iran-Iraq war that occurred from 1980-1988. It discusses the key players of Iran and Iraq, reasons for the conflict, the timeline of major events, and the involvement and stances of other countries like the US. The US initially pursued a two-track policy of supporting Iraq while also secretly supplying arms to Iran, in an attempt to prolong the war and weaken both sides.
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.
After World War I, Britain established Iraq and installed a ruler friendly to them. In the 1950s, this ruler was overthrown by military leaders. In 1979, Saddam Hussein took control of Iraq and was a harsh ruler who limited freedoms and executed political enemies. Iraq invaded Iran in the 1980s, leading to a long and devastating war that killed hundreds of thousands on both sides. In 1990, Iraq invaded Kuwait, leading to the Persian Gulf War in which a US-led coalition drove Iraqi forces out of Kuwait in 1991.
Iran and Iraq went to war for eight years over territorial disputes along the Shatt-al-Arab river and religious differences, as Iran had a Shia government while Iraq was led by Sunni Saddam Hussein, who sought to become the most powerful leader in the Middle East; ultimately, neither side gained any territory from the costly war which ended in a UN-brokered ceasefire.

This document provides a historical overview of Iran from the 1950s through the present. It discusses key events and leaders, including:
- Mohammad Mossadegh nationalizing Iran's oil industry in 1951 before being overthrown in a CIA-backed coup, replacing him with Shah Reza Pahlavi.
- The Shah instituting western reforms but facing growing opposition and protests in the 1970s over poverty and corruption.

The Iran-Iraq war lasted from 1980 to 1988 and resulted in massive casualties for both sides. [1] Key causes of the conflict included religious differences between the majority Shia population of Iran and the Sunni leadership of Iraq, as well as territorial disputes over the Shatt al-Arab waterway and oil-rich Khuzestan province. [2] Iraq invaded Iran in 1980 hoping to take advantage of political chaos, but Iran pushed back and regained lost territory by 1982, leading to a prolonged war of attrition. [3] International support was mixed, with the US backing Iraq and the Soviet Union supporting Iran. The war ended in a ceasefire in 1988 after massive losses on both sides and international
Mahatma Gandhi led non-violent protests for India's independence from British rule through civil disobedience and marches. After independence in 1947, India and Pakistan were divided along religious lines, causing conflict over the disputed Kashmir region that continues today. Nelson Mandela fought against South Africa's system of racial segregation known as apartheid through non-violent protest and was imprisoned for 26 years before being elected president in 1994. Conflict in the Middle East continues between Israel and Palestinians seeking an independent state.
The document summarizes several key events in the Arab-Israeli conflict from 2000 to the present. It discusses the origins of the conflict over territorial disputes. It describes the importance of the West Bank and Gaza Strip, including Israeli withdrawal and settlements. Specific events covered include the capture of Israeli soldier Gilad Shalit in 2006, the 2006 Lebanon War between Israel and Hezbollah, an Israeli air strike on Syria in 2007, and the Gaza War of 2008 between Israel and Hamas.
In the 19th century, Palestine was part of the Ottoman Empire with a population that was around 4% Jewish, 8% Christian and majority Muslim. There was no conflict between religious communities. In the late 1800s, Jews faced persecution in Europe which led Britain to agree to establish a Jewish homeland in Palestine in 1917. After Britain gained control of Palestine in 1918, a new wave of Zionist immigration began and tensions rose between immigrants and Palestinians throughout the 1920s and 1930s over control of the land. The Palestinian revolt from 1936-1939 aimed to stop immigration and gain independence but was crushed by Britain, leaving thousands of Palestinians killed or expelled from their villages.
The Israel-Palestinian conflict stems from disputes over land and borders in Palestine. For centuries, Jews, Muslims, and Christians lived in the region harmoniously until the late 1800s when European Zionists began colonizing Palestinian land to establish a Jewish homeland. This led to tensions between the indigenous Palestinians and immigrant Zionists. In 1947, the UN partitioned the land, giving over half to Israel against the wishes of the local Palestinian population, fueling further conflict. The establishment of Israel in 1948 and subsequent wars in 1967 and 1973 resulted in hundreds of thousands of Palestinian refugees and Israel gaining control of more territory. Periodic uprisings and peace negotiations since have failed to produce a lasting solution.
This document appears to be a pre-test on topics related to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. It contains 10 multiple choice questions that assess knowledge on topics like Israel's borders, Palestine's refugee population, Hamas as a terrorist organization, and the territories that make up Palestine. The pre-test reveals that some answers are clearly true or false, while others require more nuance, such as Israel being the largest recipient of US military aid being "sort of" true. The questions cover a range of historical facts and current issues regarding the conflict between Israel and Palestine.
This document provides a summary of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict from the aftermath of World War 1 through the 2000s. It describes how the Ottoman Empire lost control of the Middle East after WWI and European powers divided the land. In 1947, the UN proposed dividing Palestine into Jewish and Arab states, but Arabs rejected the plan. Despite Arab opposition, Israel declared statehood in 1948 and defended itself during the subsequent war, expanding its territory. Ongoing tensions included the 1967 Six-Day War and 1973 Yom Kippur War. Some peace efforts occurred in the late 1970s and 1990s, but violence between Israel and Palestinian groups like Hamas and Hezbollah continued through the 2000s.
The document summarizes the history of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict from the 1920s to the 1990s. It discusses clashes over religious sites in Jerusalem in the 1920s that led to violence. It then outlines the 1936-39 Arab revolt against British rule and Zionist settlement, which Britain suppressed violently. It also discusses the 1939 British White Paper that limited Jewish immigration and land purchases, angering Zionists. The document traces the creation of Palestinian refugees in 1948, resolutions like 242 after the 1967 war, the 1978 Camp David Accords between Egypt and Israel, the PLO's expulsion from Jordan, and the 1993 Oslo Accords between Israel and the PLO that established Palestinian self-governance in parts of the occupied territories
Timeline Of The Arab And Israel ConflictDaniel Cote
The document outlines the major events in the Arab-Israeli conflict from the late 1800s to present day:
- Zionism emerged in response to violence against Jews, leading to calls for a Jewish homeland in Palestine. Britain later facilitated Jewish immigration but also faced resistance from Arabs living in the region.
- After World War 2 and the Holocaust, where 6 million Jews were killed, the newly formed United Nations partitioned Palestine into separate Jewish and Arab states. This led to war as neighboring Arab countries attempted to prevent the creation of Israel.
- Since its founding in 1948, Israel has fought several wars with its Arab neighbors while also attempting peace negotiations. However, violence and terrorist attacks have continued as extremist Palestinian groups

- Major cities include Baghdad, Mosul, Basra, and Arbil. Archaeological sites like Uruk and Baghdad's
Iran has a long history with periods of foreign domination and internal struggles for power. In the early 20th century, Reza Shah rose to power and established a military monarchy, pursuing reforms like westernization policies that caused public backlash. His son Mohammad Reza Shah continued state building but faced growing opposition, and the 1979 Islamic Revolution overthrew the monarchy, establishing an Islamic republic led by Ayatollah Khomeini. Tensions later emerged between reformists and conservatives, with the US viewing Iran as a threat over its nuclear program and support of militant groups.
The Forgotten Palestinians who live inside Israel. The Palestinians who live inside Israel are almost invisible. But they form 20% of the Israeli population and they are struggling for equality.
'Israel-Palestine Conflict' is an ongoing conflict since the mid-20th century which has still not attained any settlement between the parties involved, it is also the conflict which has attracted lots of public opinions around the world with celebrities taking sides, public protesting around the world showing their support, foreign governments sending aids and condolences for the losses suffered, while the U.N and U.S trying to broker peace agreement between the masses which has seemed to fail each and every time! So I would like to highlight this never-ending conflict and come up with a resolution to this problem through this presentation.

This document discusses landscaping and various plant species suitable for landscaping. It begins by defining landscaping and describing its benefits such as enhancing property values, reducing cooling and noise pollution, and creating green spaces. It then lists common plants categorized as shrubs, trees, and creepers along with their botanical names, descriptions, suitable climates and uses. A total of 23 plant species are detailed, including roses, lotuses, bougainvillea and various trees such as mahogany, tamarind and creepers such as elephant creeper and grape creeper.
This document discusses poverty, including its causes, effects, and the poverty cycle. It defines absolute and relative poverty. The causes of poverty discussed include theories that the poor have little concern for the future or engage in self-defeating behaviors. The effects of poverty on children include higher rates of health problems, accidents, and missed school. Poverty also increases stress levels in families. The cycle of poverty refers to how poverty can span generations as those in poverty lack the resources to escape it.
case study of chandigarh college of architectureAbhishek Tiwari
1) The Chandigarh College of Architecture (CCA) was established in 1961 in Chandigarh, India by Le Corbusier as part of the Chandigarh Experiment.
2) CCA is located on a 20,000 square meter campus in Sector 12 of Chandigarh and has an enrollment of 200 undergraduate students.
3) The building utilizes north light and ventilation and includes facilities such as studios, workshops, a library and computer lab to support the education of architecture students.
Poverty deprives people of basic needs like food, water, shelter, and clothes. It is caused by a lack of education, natural disasters, lack of money, greed, lack of opportunities, overpopulation, and addictions like drugs and alcohol. The harsh truth is that over 3 billion people live on less than $2.50 a day, 1 in 2 children live in poverty, and 22,000 children die daily due to poverty. Solutions include reducing war, increasing government assistance, and promoting education and opportunities through donations and aid.
The National Institute of Fashion Technology in New Delhi was established in 1986 to provide education in clothing design and support the growing garment industry.

El Puerto de Algeciras continúa un año más como el más eficiente del continente europeo y vuelve a situarse en el “top ten” mundial, según el informe The Container Port Performance Index 2023 (CPPI), elaborado por el Banco Mundial y la consultora S&P Global.
El informe CPPI utiliza dos enfoques metodológicos diferentes para calcular la clasificación del índice: uno administrativo o técnico y otro estadístico, basado en análisis factorial (FA). Según los autores, esta dualidad pretende asegurar una clasificación que refleje con precisión el rendimiento real del puerto, a la vez que sea estadísticamente sólida. En esta edición del informe CPPI 2023, se han empleado los mismos enfoques metodológicos y se ha aplicado un método de agregación de clasificaciones para combinar los resultados de ambos enfoques y obtener una clasificación agregada.
