The Government of the Islamic Republic of Iran (Persian: نظام جمهوری اسلامی ایران, romanized: Nezâm-e Jomhuri-ye Eslâmi-ye Irân), known simply as Nezam (Persian: نظام, romanized: Nezâm, lit. 'the system'),[1] is the ruling state and current political system in Iran, in power since the Iranian Revolution and fall of the Pahlavi dynasty in 1979.[2]
Its constitution, adopted by an ex post facto referendum,[3] uses separation of powers model with Executive, Legislative, and Judicial systems,[4] while the Supreme Leader is the country's head of state and commander-in-chief of the armed forces.[5]
It is currently one of the three governments using the title Islamic republic.[6][7]
