After World War II, Iran’s oil industry was dominated by the British‑controlled [[Anglo‑Iranian Oil Company[[ (AIOC). In 1951, Prime Minister [[Mohammad Mossadegh]] nationalized the oil industry, arguing that Iran should control its own natural resources. The nationalization triggered a major international dispute, leading Britain to impose an embargo and seek American support.
