Fun fact about Iran:
The "constitutional revolution" in Iran started before the famous 1917 Russian revolution. Although the outcome of neither of these revolution was really good.
The constitutional revolution resulted in Iran becoming a constitutional monarchy in "Muzaffar Al-Din Shah" and his son "Mohammad Ali Shah" basically declined the constitution and wanted to be an absolute monarch and then his son "Ahmad Shah" become the king in the age of 13 after his exile, and it made ground for "Reza Pahlavi" (Prime Minister at the time) to be the new monarch.
Pahlavi dynasty were much better compared to Qajar, at least they brought technology and education to Iran.
