Maybe it could be cool if Iceland, Franz Josef, and _maybe_ Novaya Zemlya and Vinland were moved closer to the UK. Tbh i’m not sure how bothered i’d be with the history of them being claimed, more so just the modern day culture flags counties politics and whatnot.
So basically, Pahlavist Iran pursues the same pro-Shia foreign policy MINUS the anti-Zionism. This is the most realistic outcome, tbh. Pahlavist Iran was also a Shia Islamic country, never really the Zoroastrian Neo-Sassanid empire that some people claim.
@@AyhamKarajeh Zionism has always existed, as Jewish people are also a race. I assume you mean what if Israel never existed or if Israel wasn't created in Palestine? In that case the video wouldn't be too interesting as I would imagine probably an ongoing civil war in Palestine and the country would be poor
Politics isn't about religion. the democratic Iran of this alternate timeline will still be the enemy of Israel. Especially when this Iran has a large sphere of influence, large economy, large military; Israel will still be threatened by this Iran and thus, they will not have good relations with Iran
@@Bulbs_Productions Without Israels creation and the arab loss in the first arab israeli war, maybe the arab states could have unified, becoming a great power, like how china was to the ussr. it could be interesting
Do a scenario on "What if Bavaria Unified Germany," I'm tired of seeing people try to have Austria as an alternative to Prussia, please do justice for Bavaria. Edit: Actually, scratch that. What if Austria never split off from Bavaria?
@@Bulbs_Productions "Bavariareich" I think it would probably mean a more chill Germany(towards France or Austria at least) since they would have most likely helped them in unifying Germany and maintained good relations onwards, though I don't think the relation between Germany and Britain would be that good at all. It MIGHT prolong the Anglo-French hatred? Yeah I'm not that good at predicting alternate history lol
That's an epic scenario. I am an social liberal, so an liberal arab country woudl've made the muslim theocracies more scared to fuck around. Btw slower reformation is also good, beacuse people can adapt to it much easier and even express their opinions about such reforms.
@@Bulbs_Productionsalthough you could have had the shah evade revolution by simply letting the anger of the assasination of ruhollah khomieni’s son diffuse . As it was the crackdowns imposed upon the protesters and the mourners that woke up the feeling of anger among the iranians and remembered them of their exiled leader . But in 1975 almost nobody remembered khomieni so i dont see any reason for the shah’s reforms to start then . Love your work btw
GDP Would Be Around 3 Trillions USD Military Rank Would 6th or 7th Strongest ( But after the fall of the Soviet Union, there will be no threat against Iran And there was no need to spend much on the armed forces ) Population Would Be Around 65m ( After the Iran Iraq war, the leader ordered that more children be made because we need a big army, that's why the population of Iran increased abnormally in the 90s ) And definitely, after the fall of the Soviet Union, Soviet Azerbaijan Would Be Taken Back To Iran and The Size Of Country Would Became 1,728,000 km Square The Best relations Would Be With South Korea, Egypt, Poland , Taiwan Germany and USA The Worst relations Would Be With UK China Türkiye Iraq India and Russia ( Because Iran supported Pakistan, the relations between Iran and India Would Be Very Bad )
So basically just like in our timeline Iraq and Syria would still find themselves under iranian influence only this time under a different approach. There would be no funding for Hezbollah or the Assad Government or the Iraqi militias and Houthis which would just find it much harder to continue operations and instead it would be Ukraine using Iranian drones/missiles against Russia.
Omg why can’t politics stay out of this comment section . Please tell me if you want me to open a debate about iranian freedom to prove to you that they are free
@@U.K.N im literally iranian and i can tell you that you have NEVER been to iran and is 100% just another brainwashed woke westerner who thinks we are a free people blah blah blah, just shut up.
I'm Iranian and the Islamic revolution ruined our country, there's so many innocent christians persecuted, lack of freedom, and women also having lack of freedom, that's why we moved to turkiye
If only this happend in real life, at least now once the regime falls the shahzadeh will reclaim the throne considering how popular he is with the youth
He's also ironically popular among dissident Shia clergy who wish to bring back traditional Shia customs that Khamenei banned (like cursing the Prophet's companions, and Tatbir)
The majority of Iranians support the current government (according to reputable surveying service IranPoll, a Western based surveying service). Judging by the turnout for Ayatollah Sayyid President Raisi's (qd) funeral, as well as the turnout by the young, it is clear most support (especially from the young) the IRI. It is also made clear most people support the IRI as a result of the amount of people at Ismail Haniyeh's (r) funeral and the amount demanding revenge (virtually all of them).
@@anandm4748This is a very, very small minority of Shia "scholars". Actually, a majority of scholars (it is mainly the Shirazi scholars) prohibit public cursing of Sunni figures. It was also prohibited since the time of Nader Shah. Tatbir, however, is prohibited in public by a majority of scholars, with a minority allowing it in public. Most Shia in Iran and across the world support Iran.
@@mynameistomfoolery5470 This genuinely made me giggle, the voter turn out for Iran was as low as 20% and using a funeral as an example when we all know that government workers and businesses tied with the regime force workers to attend these pisslamic events make it look like the regime has support 😂 are you Iranian? If you are my friend you better start packing for Venezuela, Russia or China, the vast VAST majority of Iranians don’t want to worship Arabs anymore, you can go to Iraq or Afghanistan for that 😁
@@Bulbs_Productions In reality the relations with Mohammad Reza Pahlavi and Insraël weren't so good. In example he was in favor of Egypt during the Kippur war.
@@der_Hague The foreign politicy of Mohammad Reza Pahlavi is often over simplified and even distorted. He had very good relations with Anouar el-Sadate (proximity strategic, ideologic with "modern" conservative and also personal). Furthermore the two autocrats were very devout Muslims. Iran's support for Egypt during the Kippur war was due to these reasons. He died in Egypt, not in an occidental country. The Shah was pro Pakistan againts India, he had very good relations with Houari Boumédiène, the dictator of Algeria. The Shah on the Arab-Israëli conflict was in favor of a balanced peace (Camp David Accords and two states solution).
Why would iran give land to the peshmerga? They have kurdish land in both iran and iraq, their relationship with the kurds would probably be like turkeys.
Hey why would the United States invade Iraq in this timeline This was all due to Saddam Hussein invading Kuwait was the reason between the deterioration of relations which would not happen this timeline
@@Bulbs_Productions well fun fact even mosadeq had great relationship with tudeh party and usa and uk funded the uprising in civilian and military sector of course with support of Islamic clergy against him and mosadeq demise was one of the main reasons of 1979 Islamic revolution maybe if mosadeq could have had greater corporation with tudeh party and other left leaning organisations (because back then Iranian had socialist tendencies) he could undo his demise and stablished mixed parlementry system in iran
@Bulbs_Productions Your scenario is great This person is a monkey in iran they call them "basiji" they are the ones who fo anithing that the government says and support the evil Islamic republic
@@anandm4748The Shah is by all metrics a Munafiq, and this is agreed upon by all people. His actions made him spiritually a Kafir, and thus will be burning in hell for going against the laws of Islam and God, and tainting the image of Islam. Also, Imam Khomeini (qd) was supported by a majority of Shia. Islamic ideology is a supported ideology, just because your Western, God-lacking though doesn't like it doesn't mean the majority of Muslims (and Iranians at that) support your opposition to it.
