Anna of Russia
The town, alongside the rest of Gilan as well as the other Caspian Sea coast provinces of what is modern-day Iran, remained in Russian hands for a decade until the Treaty of Resht of 1732 concluded by the government of Peter the Great's successor, Tsarievna Anna of Russia, and the newly emerging Iranian general and leader Nader Shah. The Russian forces evacuated from Gilan and all other provinces that Peter had conquered in 1734.
