Revolutions

The Iranian Revolution was shockingly similar to the French Revolution and the Russian Revolution. The Iranian Revolution, like the others, posed a threat to its neighboring Middle Eastern countries. The purpose of this revolution was to change the government, just as the French Revolution wanted to fix the class systems and the Russian Revolution did as well with the Bolesheviks. Although the French Revolution occurred in 1789, the Russian Revolution occurred in 1917, and the Iranian Revolution occurred in 1979, it is so interesting to see the patterns. Revolutions were necessary in all of these areas, and all three of these revolutions had taught other regimes what they needed to look for when partaking in revolution. A pattern is found through all three of these revolutions that comes with successful change in government.
