Strongly favoring the claims of Iran in the dispute, the author examines the historical background of the multifaceted conflict between Iran and the United Arab Emirates over the territoriality of three islands. Regarding the U.A.E.'s claims of sovereignty as a legacy handed down from British colonial domination of the area, the author discusses the histories of Iran, the sheikhdoms that became the U.A.E., and British influence on the area. The competing arguments made by the principles are then evaluated on the basis of the historical evidence presented. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

This book is on Iran’s geopolitical importance representing a continuum of international competition for political gains and economic benefit, due to the country's unique geographical location that has always been a cause of contention. Iran’s massive boarders and evolving political weakness, along with influences from the kings of Qajar that maintained and strengthened Great Britain’s hegemony in the region, were major factors affecting ongoing regional conflicts. Additional roles played by other world powers such as France, Russia and the United States are also noted. Conflicts, unrest and regional wars were all consequences arising from power struggles that led to treaties and international agreements between Iran, Britain and Russia that caused the eventual loss of traditional Iranian territories. Hence, extrinsic impositions on Iran are the subject of this study as authors examine the turbulent climate that altered Iranian borders during the Qajar Dynasty.
