Iran's 1979 Islamic Revolution.
The Shah is gone, Revolutionary demonstrators celebrate in Iran's capital city of Tehran on January 16th, the day the Shah fled the country with his family. This opened up a gap in the country for the leader of the revolution, Ayatollah Khomeini to return from exile and form the Islamic republic of Iran. A million people took to the streets to cheer on Khomeini and denounce the Shah. Tehran, IRAN - 16/01/1979.
