ENJOY!...
OK, the last month has been INCREDIBLE in the Middle East. It has been a domino effect of revolutions since a guy named Mohammed Bouazizi set himself on fire in order to protest corruption, injustice an poverty in Tunisia. Since then, almost half of the Middle Eastern countries have faced riots, protests, and absolute revolutions. Take a look!

Iran - There are few foreign journalists in Iran and media is heavily restricted. Iran's story goes back to 1979 and last year. In 1979, the had a pro Islamic and anti American Revolution. (They didn't like America because America was supporting a dictator who was stopping them from having any freedom of religion or assembly, etc.) Since then, Iran's new leaders have become very corrupt and unpopular. Last year, they had an "election" in which the person who probably won was told that he actually lost by the Supreme Leader. Since the rest of the Middle East has risen up, Iranians have started to rise up.

NOTE: This is where the Civil War began. Take a look at any and all research you can to give you an idea of what happened with the Civil War. I would suggest using the following news organizations...
Al-Jazeera
BBC
CNN
Question - Why are so many people answering questions in English?
