Hi all:
these pictures are from the king and queen of Iran before the revolution occurs at 1978. Iran had kings and queens for 2500 years but it all ended with the revolution in 1978. These pics are old and are from that time so the quality is not that great. Iran's king name was Mohammad Reza Pahlavi and the queen's name is Farah Diba. King of Iran passed away awhile after the revolution due to sickness but his wife is living in Washington D.C with her son and family.
































































And this is queen Farah today, she now lives in washington D.C.










These are their kids all grown up I think they all live in the States. But sadly their daughter on the left corner passed away couple of years ago.






This is her son Reza with his wife Yasmin.







Blessings to this great country and its great people.

Great pictures, I am fond of Iranian women, they are very atractive in my modest opinion.



Cheers all.

It seems that the white persians are also the higher society of Iran. Is that right? The arabs are the lower society. And probably its the lower society arabs who mostly support the authoritarian government???
Iran is not South America...lol.

Was Muhammad Reva Pahlavi a good leader? I heard a lot of negative things about him.

I think he was a very good leader and was doing his best to develop Iran very quickly, but time didn't go as he wanted.

The biggest problem with Iranian people is that they don't know just how great their country can be.

Mohammad Reza was not the great leader but his Wife Queen Farah Diba was the big power behind him, if she just was a little bit stronger and pressed him to use force against the islamists.... But hey lets keep this political free (sorry that i started...)
