Why isn't Iran a communist country like all the others who had a revolution?

by perfectdarktrump

Their anti American revolution didn't lead them to communism. Is that because it was later in the cold war? Did their alliance with Russia not entail them to adapting communism?

There seems to be a misconception here. Communism doesn't have a monopoly on Revolution. A political revolutionary is "The Forceful overthrow of a government or social order in favor of a new one"

So the Iranian revolution didn't result in a communist regime because it wasn't a communist revolution. It was an Islamic revolution against the Western allied Shah (King) who was westernizing the country and had nothing to do with communist ideology
