What Did the People of Iran Think About Reza Khan Becoming Shah?

Just now November 1, 2026 1 min read 📰 ISNA
📋 Key Takeaway

The article discusses the public's lack of enthusiasm and support for Reza Khan's ascension to the throne during the transition from the Qajar to the Pahlavi dynasty. This is significant as it highlights the disconnect between political changes and public sentiment in early 20th century Iran.

Reports from the British Embassy regarding the transfer of power from the Qajar dynasty to the Pahlavi dynasty indicate that while the political structure of the country was undergoing transformation, a significant portion of the population neither showed an enthusiastic reaction to this change nor was there any serious indication of public support for the new monarchy.
