The Constitutional Revolution refers to a significant political movement that aimed to establish a constitutional government, limiting the powers of the monarchy and ensuring civil rights. This movement emerged in various countries, notably in the early 20th century in places like Iran, where citizens sought to create a parliamentary system and promote democratic principles. In Iran, the revolution began in 1905 and led to the establishment of the first national assembly, known as the Majlis. The movement was driven by a coalition of intellectuals, merchants, and religious leaders who demanded reforms and accountability from the ruling Qajar dynasty. Ultimately, the revolution laid the groundwork for modern political developments in the region.
