The Transition from Iran to Seven Independent Countries

The deep political crisis, war, widespread public dissatisfaction with the regime, Iran’s occupationist policies, and the exhaustion of the centralized structure all show that today’s issue is no longer merely a change of in Tehran, but rather the end of the model of a “unified Iran.” In this framework, the real solution is not to rebuild that same Iranian occupier-centered centralism, but to divide Iran into seven independent countries: Kurdistan, Balochistan, Al-Ahwaz, South Azerbaijan, South Turkmenistan, Caspian, and Farsistan ; countries in which the subjugated nations can reclaim their sovereignty, identity, and destiny.

The nations that have been deprived of their historical and national identity for more than a century under the names “Iran” and “Iranian,” and whose lands have been subjected to occupation and denial within the centralized, artificial, and fabricated structure of the Iranian state, must now be recognized as independent political entities. Just as the collapse of Yugoslavia marked the end of an artificial and multiethnic structure, the collapse of Iran, too, can mark the beginning of a new order—an order based on the right to self-determination, the end of Iranian occupier domination, the establishment of seven independent states in the lands occupied by Iran, and the end of Iranian colonialism.
