aug 14, 1963 - White Revolution
Description:
The white revolution was a series of reforms that were made to make Iran a world power. They represent westernization of Iran. This event caused the traditional conservatives to become annoyed, and to believe that the shahs were simply puppets of western powers. This led to widespread unhappiness with the Shah, eventually leading up to the Iranian revolution.
