I've always imagined Iran as a Middle-Eastern Japan: a fully-industrialized first-world power on the cutting-edge of technology and science, greatly Westernized socially while still retaining much of its indigenous heritage and ancient customs, and a cultural influence not only on its immediate neighbors, but throughout the world.

In our timeline the only country in the Middle East to industrialize like that is Turkey. It's also a matter of institutions to maintain the industrialization, which Ataturk did bring to the country albeit very forced... Iran going through this industrialization as a country in the Middle East would certainly be interesting though!

Iranian here, The iran-related part of this video is one of better descriptions made by foreigners, however it has a few mistakes: 1- in the land reform program, peasants did receive land, but most of them "sold it" and moved to the cities creating a large wave of rural to urban migration which ended up in that large urban lower class that drove the islamic revolution. 2- Mosaddegh had lost confidence of parliement but had refused to step down and dissolved the parliement instead. So he had basically lost legitimacy and while american help did play a role in Mosaddegh's fall, it was only an extra push, Mosaddegh would probably fall without it anyway, just a few months later. 3- Carter did push the fall of Shah probably as much as Eisenhower had pushed the fall of Mosaddegh, and it wasn't really because he cared about human rights, it was because Shah as the de facto leader of OPEC at that time was pushing the oil prices up ignoring western countries' protests.

Iran would have become the Germany in the Middle East without the 1979 revolution. Reforms launched by the Shah were ambitious but a big part of the Iranian population had different preoccupations such as dealing with water and food supplies first, without mentionning religious matters. Biggest mistake of the Imperial gvt was to ignore these preoccupations before launching projects..

Please mention that the “Great” Britain was again against the king around 1970s because he was feeling powerful and was trying to control oil prices. Behind the scenes, they played a big role supporting and advocating for the ayatollahs and helping them overthrow Pahlavi’s dynasty. In the modern days, most of high ranking ayatollahs own many properties in London and visit frequently specially for medical operations. This has become a hot topic even among the regime supporters these days.

What happened in 1979 was not a revolution, it was a national suicide by that generation that is hurting even todays generation. Nowadays many Iranians have realized the mistake they made 44 years ago and want the monarchy restored. So there is actually a very high chance to see Iran returning to monarchy and it's roots. 6:15 the Shah never tried to sell the lands back to peasants, he literally gave them for free to the peasantry. The story of Mohammad Reza Shah is filled with so much anti monarchy propaganda that you wouldn't believe how much lie they've spread throughout the years(P.S EDIT: the fact that even Josh doesn't know how much the commies supported Khomeini just shows how little truth there is available for the general public, you need to dive deep into the story to get the full picture and realize what a disaster 1979 was for Iran). I don't want to write an essay to defend the shah, ofc he had mistakes, everybody makes mistakes. But he and his father were the true founders of modern Iran, who dedicated their lives bringing Iran to the glory it deserved from the shadow of it's later centuries after the fall of Safavid empire...there are published secret documents showing how much the west feared Iran under Pahlavi dynasty, it was becoming a global superpower at an insane speed...no wonder communists and western governments secretly planned his fall in 1978.

I doubt that Iran would be more than a strong regional power, even in this scenario. In the 1980s and 1990s, many people predicted that Japan, a country more populous and more industrialized, than Iran, Japan is still only a regional power and ally of the United States. I think that it's fair to model this timeline's Iran as growing at an approximately similar rate to our timeline's Turkey (they had similar GDP per capita's before the Iranian Revolution), giving this timeline's Iran a GDP of around a trillion dollars. This puts them approximately on-par with Saudi Arabia's wealth, but their far larger population could make them the dominant regional power. However, our timeline's Turkey has a similar population and GDP to what I think Iran would have in this timeline, so it's by no means a guarantee. Iran would be probably be a more extreme version of Turkey - roughly aligned with the West, but with sympathies to Russia and China, controlling a strait that is incredibly important economically and strategically, but by no means an independent competitor to the West, Russia, or China - but a decent bit more powerful and independent because of their control over a major strategic resource. I could see Iran and India having a very strong alliance in this timeline. They would both be rapidly developing nations, close enough to have common interests (specifically in keeping Pakistan and Afghanistan pacified, keeping the oil flowing, and keeping both the West and China and Russia from totally dominating the world) but not too close to have competing territorial claims or ambitions, and they would not be economic competitors (Iran's economy being based on natural resources, while India's is based more on agriculture). An Indo-Iranian alliance would have massive leverage over China, as each nation in that alliance would be in a position to cut off Middle Eastern supplies of oil to China at a different choke point alone (and would be far more capable of that together), and Iran would be in a position to crush Pakistan with India if Pakistan intervened (especially if Afghanistan also did not remain neutral). They would also have a lot of leverage over the West for similar reasons, but not nearly as much as they would over China (the West is less reliant on Middle Eastern oil than China is, as the US and the North Sea countries have their own sources of oil and natural gas, while China does not).

Actually wrote a paper on this very topic in one of my undergrad program. I think the US would still be pro-active on the world stage, but generally less directly. - NATO still grows as it did. Russia is and was a threat to US interests. - US would outsource most of its Middle East efforts to Iran and Israel. As long as the oil flows, all is well. - US is better positioned to be pro-active in the Indo-Pacific, which would antagonize China.

Do they have more freedom than before? Can they say what they want compared to before? Are they richer than before? Are they more religious than before?

The 1979 revolution was the Islamist-Communist revolution as the current economic system or even political one is almost identical to USSR which is why one of the slogans in 2022 was down with radicalism of reds (Commies) & blacks (Islamists) & no Iranians do not care Ajax coup an important or bad thing, at least anymore because Mosaddeq was a communist you can see it from nationalizing everything such as oil and he dissolved the parliament that nation voted.

I’m sorry but if the Iraq war didn’t happen, the Neo-Cons would have gotten stronger, not weaker. The War in Iraq was devastating to the Neo-Conservative movement because it made them look both stupid and malicious and their inability to enforce order within Iraq post invasion made them look incompetent. Moreover, China would still be a crucial problem that both Democrats and Republicans alike would have noticed a lot sooner (as the Bush 41 administration was already starting to do) they would not have been consumed by middle eastern politics thus further strengthening the neo-conservative movement. Furthermore, NATO expansion was something that had started well before 9/11 and the expansion was overwhelmingly popular in those Eastern European countries that acceded to NATO.

Thanks for the video, it is truly well done However Persia is not the name we call ourselves, The name Iran is what we have used for millennials to describe our civilisation and it doesn’t belong to a single ethnicity. In fact the Pahlavi dynasty were the ones who made the world recognise us by our true name *Iran* As much as I have realised it’s the diaspora that really like to introduce themselves as Persian apparently because others confuse them with Iraq? Btw, inside Iran the Pahlavi dynasty has become very popular among Iranians especially among us the gen Z, the reasons for it are too many to mention.
