The correct option is B

The Iranian Revolution (also known as the Islamic Revolution or the 1979 Revolution) refers to the process of mobilizations that led to the overthrow of the Pahlavi dynasty under the sah Mohammad Reza Pahleví in 1979 (who had the support of the United Kingdom and the United States) , and that meant the establishment of the Islamic Republic currently in force in Iran. The leader of the revolution was Ayatollah Khomeini, who had support from various leftist and Islamic organizations plus the Iranian student movements while he was in exile.

Mosaddeq became Prime Minister in 1951, one of his first measures being the nationalization of oil that same year. This event was accompanied by demonstrations of the majority of the people of Iran and strikes by the workers. The nationalization and anti-imperialist policy of Mosaddeq endangered the interests of the United States, before which the United Kingdom led a military coup against the government of Mosaddeq. The coup affected the community and the people, causing this situation animosity for the Shah, the United Kingdom and the United States.
