To understand modern Iran, you must first understand its ghosts - empire, oil, revolution, and humiliation. This episode explores Iran as one of the most ideologically turbulent crossroads of the twentieth century — where monarchy, communism, nationalism, Islamism, and foreign imperialism collided.
Key takeaways from this episode:
• Iran’s modern politics and how they were shaped by centuries of foreign interference.
• The Persian contribution to Islamic civilisation.
• WWII occupation by the Allies and the weakening of Iran's monarchy.
• MI6, CIA and Operation Ajax.
