What happened at the Iranian Constitutional Revolution

Beginning in 1905, merchants, clerics, and reformers in Iran protested against royal corruption, foreign economic control, and the arbitrary rule of the Qajar shahs. Widespread demonstrations and a mass sit-in at the British legation in Tehran pressured Shah Mozaffar ad-Din to sign a constitution in 1906, creating the Majlis, an elected national assembly. His successor, Mohammad Ali Shah, resisted the new order and bombarded the parliament in 1908 with Russian help, sparking civil conflict. Constitutionalist forces recaptured Tehran in 1909 and deposed him in favor of his young son. The movement established lasting principles of representative government, though foreign intervention by Russia and Britain limited its full success.
