Скачать или смотреть A Brief History Of Iran: Why Is There Unrest?

How does Iranian history underpin today's unrest? Dan traces more than 2,500 years of Iran's story — from the first Persian empires through conquest, dynasties, and revolution — to understand how power, identity, and sovereignty have shaped the country.

He's joined by Ali Ansari, Professor of Iranian History at the University of St Andrews to explore key turning points over the centuries from the Arab conquest to the 1953 overthrow of Prime Minister Mohammad Mosaddegh and the 1979 Revolution.
