jan 16, 1963 - The White Revolution
Description:
Series of reforms put in place by Shah Pahlavi, aimed to modernize Iran and weaken the traditional elite. Some economic and political progress did come out of the White Revolution, but the general failure of the programs and enmity of the clerics & elite class caused it to eventually catalyze the Iranian Revolution in '79.
