Qajar dynasty, قاجار - part 1 ☼ SoltanAli Mirza Qajar, پرنس سلطانعلي ميرزا

The Qajar dynasty, دودمان قاجار is an Iranian royal family who ruled Persia (Iran) from 1785 to 1925. The Qajar family took full control of Iran in 1794, deposing Lotf 'Ali Khan, the last of the Zand dynasty, and re-asserted Persian sovereignty over parts of the Caucasus. In 1796 Mohammad Khan Qajar was formally crowned as shah.

The Qajar (or Ghajar) rulers were members of the Karagoz of the Qajars, originally themselves members of the Qarapapaqs of the larger Turkic peoples. Qajars first settled during the Mongol period in the vicinity of Armenia and were among the seven Qizilbash tribes that supported the Safavids. The Safavids "left Arran (present-day Republic of Azerbaijan) to local Turkic speaking khans", and, "in 1554 Ganja was governed by Shahverdi Soltan Ziyadoglu Qajar, whose family came to govern Karabakh in southern Arran".

Qajars filled a number of diplomatic missions and governorships in the 16-17th centuries for the Safavids. The Qajars were resettled by Shah Abbas I throughout Persia. The great number of them also settled in Astarabad (present-day Gorgan, Iran) near the south-eastern corner of the Caspian Sea,[8] and it would be this branch of Qajars that would rise to power. The immediate ancestor of Qajars, Shah Qoli Khan Qajar Ghovanloo (also spelled Quvanlu) of the Ghovanloo of Ganja, married into the Ghovanloo Qajars of Astarabad. His son, Fath Ali Khan Qajar, born circa 1685-1693, was a renowned military commander during the rule of the Safavid shahs Husayn and Tahmasp II. He was killed on the orders of Tahmasp Qoli Khan Afshar (Nader Shah) in 1726. Fath Ali Khan's son Mohammad Hassan Khan Qajar (1722--1758) was killed at the behest of Karim Khan Zand, and was the father of Agha Mohammad Khan and Hossein Qoli Khan (Jahansouz Shah) Qajar (father of "Baba Khan," the future Fath Ali Shah Qajar).

Within 126 years between the demise of the Safavid state and the rise of Nasir al-Din Shah, the Qajars evolved from a Turkic shepherd-warrior tribe with strongholds in northern Persia into a Persian dynasty with all the trappings of a Persian monarchy.

WTF? The Qajar were a bunch of anti Iran fucking losers.

This guy is talking out of his asshole.

The Pahlavis pulled Iran up from the bottom of the toilet, which the Qajars had put her in.

Fuck the motherfucking Qajars.

Long Live EEEEEEEEEEEERUN.

Please use a appropriate language towards other fellow Iranian whether they are loved or hated by you.

This sort of filthy language is mostly used by the mullahs in Islamic schools!

This guy loved Iran and you should respect that part if you'd care the least about Iran and her beloved people.

Thanks for your attention!

@mahkelkae You are calling one of the biggest heroes in Iranian history a faggot because you saw it in a hollywood movie based on a comic book. Only goes to show your ignorance and complete absence of logic. In other words you are an idiot.

[samanmm]

He is obviously very biased. The Qajars are the most shameful and incompetent dynasty to rule Iran in recent history. This is historical fact. The founder Agha Mohammad Khan was a hateful character who was responsible for the death of thousands of innocent people including Lotf Ali Khane Zand who was publicly raped, blinded and castrated as ordered by Agha Mohammad Khan.

Abbas Mirza was one of the only honest and brave characters who held any prominence during the Qajar prominence.

@mahkelkae

1)Out of respect for Esfahani, I will keep some of the color that you deserve out of my response.

[mahkelkae]

in response to this vedio, I must say it;s the most precious message from any royal family in Iran's history. if Qajar dynasty would last and not been betrayed by Reza Pahlavi, Iran would never been in hands of islamic barbarians.

[mahkelkae]

Thanks for being so professional and open minded in this matter.
