2. CULTURE
Iranians are 98% Muslim. Most Muslims are Shia. Some Muslims
are even Sunni. .Sunni and Shia are unusual. In other countries Sunni
is more then Shia. So Sunni and Shia were fighting because they said
prophet Muhammad said this or this so they disagreed. There are not
a lot of Christians in Iran. Muslims use the Quran to pray in Arabic.
Christians pray in English. Muslims have an important holiday. It is
Ramadan, when everybody fasts.

About 150 years ago Iran and Europe got in a fight so Europe won and
took over Iran. Iran became so poor. Everything got destroyed. In 1925,a
new leader Reza was crowned shah of Iran. The king shah took
everything away to other countries. Shah and his family were very rich.
The other people were still poor. The other people were not allowed to
change his rules. If they did they would be arrested or die. People did
not like the Shah’s life style. The Shah left.
King Khomeini succeeded and took whatever he wanted in 1979. All the
people should pray or die.
The women should were chador when there were in public. The Iranians
can’t learn another religion they should be Muslim. So the police shot a
lot of people.
