Located in the strategically determining region of the Middle East and having long coasts on the Persian Gulf and Oman sea, Iran has a full dominance over the most important oil routs, that is , the Hormuz strait.
Due to its location on the world ways, the East - West and the North - South trade routs, it has always been the scene of struggles among the world superpowers who were trying to dominate the region. These has not, however, been the main reason, in the last two decades, for the country's fame which has changed it into the focal points of the world news and intertwined it with the most important events occurring in the world. the world people until two decades ago were not able to choose one of the two possible options: the one which would lead them to the East and the one pushing then towards the West.
Most of the world countries, too, had established a close relation with at least one of these two poles in order to lead their lives in the light of its authority .
In spite of the widespread border that is shared with the former soviet Union, One of the most important countries in the Eastern bloc, Iran was one of the most important allies of the west, the us in particular, which was regarded as a strong bastion in the containment of the expansion of communism to the South and East.
Iran was an obstacle against the soviet Union, Limiting its access to the warm waters of the south and the strategically important region of the Persian Gulf.
The soviet Union had its own circle of allies in the region, including Iraq and Syria. Yet, Iran was not part of circle. All of a sudden, the country underwent an unprecedented but rooted change, IRAN , The seemingly quiet country , the so thought authoritative government, the supposedly in effective Islam which had been isolated from people's lives for a period of 50 years during the rule of the shah and the people who had apparently been attracted to the western civilization , at all once, started to manifest all, but what the west had publicized. protest prevailed the country. This could. well shake the government. Islam was revived the people. the 50 - year-old government, rather the 2500-year -old royal system - enjoying the full support of the West, armed to the teeth - failed to with stand a righteous and pious scholar who was not supported by anyone except God and the people, the leader who showed no appreciation of power or the luxury of life.
The regime : Therefore, lost everything.

The revolution in Iran was fathered and won its victory in the light of teachings of Islam.
After the victory, too, the Islamic Revolution continued its path while it had to comfort , by itself, all the Eastern and Western powers which had made an alliance to destroy the revolution: Yet, in its struggle against the enemies even the seemingly Muslim countries, too, left it alone.
As regards marriage, the newly passed laws let the women to set some conditions when they get married and receive their dowry according to the value of commodities at the time of divorce. undoubtedly , we have still along way, a head of us, to completely materialize the "Islamic Laws" and satisfy the needs of both man and women .
