Mohammed Reza Pahlavi
Mohammed Reza Pahlavi was the last Shah of Iran, ruling from 1941 until his overthrow during the Iranian Revolution in 1979. His reign was marked by significant modernization efforts and Westernization, as well as increasing authoritarianism and political dissent. The Shah's pursuit of a nuclear program began in the 1970s, driven by ambitions for Iran to become a regional power before his regime ultimately collapsed.
