Shahdom of Persia


 * Backstory: In August of 2017, the Iranian people, dissatisfied with the current government of the Islamic Republic of Iran, began a coup to overthrow the central government in Tehran and replace it with a far-right monarchy. The young leader of the group, Ghodrat Farahmandi, had as many as sixty million people backing his organization, the Revival Front, which was, at the time, a majority of the Iranian population. The revolution lasted until February 2018, in which the central government in Tehran surrendered, bringing Ghodrat the First into power, replacing the president at the time, Hassan Rouhani, as the head of state of Iran, also transforming the seat of President of Iran into the Crown of Iran. This also lead to the Great Oil Crisis (see Japan's turn), allowing Iran to become the world number-one hoarder of oil, thus allowing Iran to make one of the biggest monopolies off of oil, ever. Iran grew extremely rich and powerful (compared to today) simply due to the GOC, and it began its huge modernization project. In 2022, it also demanded that Iraq hand over their Shia majority area, of which it complied after some exchanges of money, with Iran changing its name to Persia soon after. The year is 2032, and Persia demanded Afghanistan, Turkmenistan, and Kuwait join it. Kuwait complied. The others, did not. Turkmenistan was quickly taken, while Afghanistan managed to hold out for some time. Eventually, a treaty ending the war was signed, bringing Persia to its current borders in 2040.


 * Government: Currently, the head of the Persian crown is Ghodrat Farahmandi I of Tehran (age 72), also of the Summikar Dynasty. The government is also an absolute monarchy, though with an assembly (the Second Islamic Consultative Assembly) that simply gives suggestions to the shah.
 * Policies:
 * Sharia Law, 2019: One of the most major policies of the new Persian government was the full instatement of Sharia law in what was then Iran. Women are not allowed to go out in public unless accompanied by a man they are related to, such as a brother, husband, father, cousin, etc., and even when they are accompanied by a man, they must wear a shuttlecock burqa, which is a burqa that only has a mesh grille to see out of. This law also banned girls ages sixteen and up from going to school.
 * Iranian Draft, 2020: This policy was instated in July 2020, as the shah of Iran at the time believed that Iran needed to be a strong military power in order to be presentable upon the world stage. The draft stated that there were to be at least twenty-five million soldiers in the Iranian military at one time, unless Iran is currently at war with another sovereign nation, in which the minimum will be brought up to thirty million.
 * Schooling Policy, 2020: Another of four major policies, children are to be taught of the greatness of the nation they live in, how great the shah and his predecessors were, and how horrible the Islamic Republic of Iran was (though it is barely touched upon in history teachings) starting from first grade, while in kindergarten, they are taught basic maths, reading, writing, etc.
 * Abortion Law, 2024: The last of the major policies brought in by the shah were his policies on abortion. Abortion is only legal in cases where the woman's child evidently has a disability. If said child is also found to have any mental disabilities later in life, they are put in special schools for their specific disability, or the parents can just euthanize it. (Note: These do not reflect my personal beliefs, except for Sharia law, but on a much less intense scale.)
 * Two-Child Policy: Women are encouraged to have at least two children, with tax cuts and benefits coming for their family for every extra child added on. Simple as that.


 * Analytics:
 * Population: The current population of Persia is 381,910,367 people.
 * Demographics:
 * Nationalities: Most of those who live in Persia are ethnic Persian/Iranian (which are considered the same), with 93% being considered Persian, 4% Arab, and the other 3% being a mix of Pakistanis, Afghans, Indians, and Turks.
 * Religion: 99% of the population follows Shia Islam, with 0.9% following Sunni Islam and the rest being Christian.

 * India: We accept their request to become economic partners, though we request they send their Muslim population to us.
 * Japan: We'd like to be allies.
