The Islamic Republic of Iran is modeled on Plato's work [i]Politeia[/i], and is in fact the ideal form of government.
Seriously, you can transplant the model into almost any fairly religious society and it will probably work out great.
That's not to say it's perfect, but it is a pretty awesome political structure that is allowing Iran to slowly crawl back into relevance even in the face of economic pressure from all of the imperialist powers, Israeli espionage/sabotage, and constant sociopolitical and ideological pressure from her Sunni neighbors.

Crawl back into relevance? Iran has always punched well above its weight. But yeah I agree its a better system of government than most other Gulf and Arab states. Wanted to spit when I saw Trump decrying Irans HUman rights record to the Saudis, especially as it was on the day of the Iranian election. Wonder when the last Saudi election was?

Wasn't Plato's ideal government lead only by philosophers and that it would never happen because it would be like trying to explain what the world looks like to someone whos only ever lived under a cave. Or am I the only one that actually pay attention in class?

[quote]Antarctica actually has one of the best governments in the world[/quote] I agree

Are we just ignoring the blatant lack of rights its people have?
-
I happen to think that a Federalist Constitutional Representative Republic is I pretty fantastic form of government.

Wrong. What's bringing them back is the suffering of their neighbors aka Afghanistan and Iraq and the fact that they own basically all of the oil there in the gulf now.

...after reading pro-iranian propaganda I've been convinced as well. Lol.
-
You know they seemed to be doing fine,. Before we overthrew their democratically elected government and put in a puppet dictator, but that's none of my business...

Modifié par Spartan 22O : 6/9/2017 10:24:26 PMThere's no way to remove the leaders from power though. how can you hold leaders accountable? it's a totally ridiculous government. it's dictated by radical clerics and those ayatollah asshole. how do iranians change this leadership if they decide they don't like it anymore? there would have to be a revolution to oust them just like what happened in 1979. it's a terrible form of government. non-secular, regressive form of government. a theocracy. on top of it all, they fund terrorists to advance their terrorist islamist agenda. [spoiler]Theres not way OP can be serious is there?[/spoiler]

I don't know why I liked this. It was the Persian rebels who were enemies of the Timurid Khanate.

Wtf I love Iran now

Plato and all those other Greek or Roman whatever philosophers stole the knowledge of ancient Persia (Iran) and Sumeria. So basically, it's not modeled after Plato, it's modeled after themselves.
