Reaction and Performance of Qajars to the Change of Monarchy from Qajar to Pahlavi

Qajar was the last dynasty which came to power relying on the sword of the tribe men. But unlike the previous tribes, they surrendered without any fight and resistance in confronting with the most important issues of their monarchy period, i.e. the emergence of new rival of power. It’s very strange that the Qajari politicians and elites joined Sardar Sepah and supported passing the power and monarchy to their rival. The findings of the present research are based on rational explanation which reveales the case that time. Due to the uncompleted actions in the military reform, the Qajar tribe was collapsed and left the military arena and the monarchy significantly weakened in line with the constitutional movement (political reform) and they lost the full commandership over the modern military units. Those who affiliated with the royal family, instead of giving up the power and wealth, gave up the former to protect the later.
