Language and Text
فارسی

Pahlavi script based on Imperial Aramaic, borrowed its vocabulary as logograms with middle iranian pronunciation. Later (Pahlavi Psalter).

But Avestan alphabet is more phonetically precise, therefore used to render Avestan language, the liturgical language of Zoroastrianism and the Avesta scriptures, which required strict correctness of pronunciation. Pahlavi was displaced after the Muslim conquest of Persia and the fall of the Sasanian Empire, by the Persian alphabet* الفبای فارسی, which is is arabic script with four additional letters: چ پ ژ گ

ISIRI 9147 Persian keyboard, Arabic keyboard.

Persia Ancient and Medieval
Greater Iran (Persian: ایران بزرگ Irān-e Bozorg), Greater Khorāsān or Khorāsān (Middle Persian: Xwarāsān; Persian: خراسان)

De-Colonization
Mohammat Mossadegh* Prime Minister of Iran from 1951 to 1953, elected through a contentious 1952 election into the 17th Iranian Majlis.

His administration introduced a range of social and political measures such as social security, land reforms and higher taxes including the introduction of taxation on the rent of land. His government's most significant policy was the nationalization of the Iranian oil industry, which had been built by the British on Persian lands since 1913 through the Anglo-Persian Oil Company (APOC/AIOC), later known as British Petroleum (BP).

Removed from power by the 1953 Iranian coup d'état*, with assistance of UK's M16 and US's CIA, which the US acknowledged in 2013. His National Front was suppressed from the 1954 election, in which "the Shah" Mohammad Reza Pahlavi returned to power, who negotiated the Consortium Agreement of 1954 with the British, which gave split ownership of Iranian oil production between Iran and the Seven sisters western oil companies until 1979.

This basic injustice appears to the efficient cause of what could be considered a joint Nationalist—Islamic Revolution of Iran 1979. Have the US and UK atoned for this act of interference?
