Endeavouring to chart the story of Iranian people's resistance to an unusually large number of external and internal oppressors from 1813 to the present day is a challenge!
We have used the popular MyHistro, a cloud-based visual, maps, and word presentation system, to easily display historical time periods and focus on specific narratives, i.e., current unrest and nuclear talks, to make understanding easier, rapid and self-paced.
We are finding that in addition to simply presenting the stories, a considerable number of visitors are finding the MyHistro timelines independently and they are clearly being used as a reference by others as well as campaigners.
Historical Timelines are newest at top. Scroll down for specific narratives.
