The Indo-Persian Empire is a Nation Persia after it's takeover by Reza Shah which gained India, Afghanistan, Turkmenistan, Southeast Uzbekistan, Tajikstan, Oman, The UAE, Qatar, Bahrain, Kuwait and Zanzibar as colonies and Puppet States all ruled by Pahlavi himself. It was created with the aid of American and Japanese allegiance to combat Soviet influence in Asia and German Influence in Africa. This nation is one of the Great Powers of the Shroob12 Kaisereich Universe.
==History==
===Origins===
After the Ottoman Empire was annexed as a puppet state of Germany with the rest of Europe, North Africa and Arabia. Persia was in danger of becoming communist like Soviet Russia or becoming a German Puppet in which the former British Colony of the British Raj will be in German Hands. So America and Japan had brought Reza Shah to power as they overthrew the Qajar Sultans and placed Reza Shah in Power of Iran. Reza had conquered all of Central Asia, The Indian Subcontinent, The Arabian Nations of the Persian Gulf and the British Puppet State of Zanzibar. Reza had made the Khanate of Khiva, Kingdom of Afghanistan, The Imperial state of Jammu and Kashmir, The Maratha Confederacy, The Imperial State of Hyderabad, The Mughal Maharajahnate, The Maharajahnate of Mysore, The Travancore Kingdom, The Sheikdom of Kuwait, The Kingdom of Bahrain, The Emirate of Qatar, The The Trucial States Confederacy, The Sultanate of Oman and the Sultanate of Zanzibar as Puppet States. After that Reza Shah had created the Dual Monarchy of Indo-Persia in which the name was influenced by the Indo-Greek Kingdom. Reza had made himself the Shahanshah of Iran and Chhatrapati of India which is basically the Emperor of Indo-Persia.
The President of the Privy Council of the Dual Monarchy is Prince Abdol-Hossein Farman Farma who is the leader of the Qajar loyalists of Reza Shah in which he was the official Head of Government as Dual Monarchy has two Prime Ministers (One from Iran and One from India) in which the Iranian Prime Minister is Mohammad Ali Foroughi as the Prime Minister of India is Vallabhbhai Jhaverbhai Patel.
==Government==
The common government was led by a Ministerial Council, which had responsibility for the Common Army, navy, foreign policy, and the customs union. It consisted of three Imperial and Royal Joint-ministries:
* Ministry of the Imperial and Royal Household and Foreign Affairs
* Imperial and Royal Ministry of War, known as the Imperial Ministry of War
* Imperial and Royal Ministry of Finance
In addition to the three ministers, the Ministerial Council also contained the prime ministers of Persia & India, the President of the Privy Council, Vassal Kings (Princely Rulers, King of Afghanistan, Khan of Khiva, Emir of Bukhara, Mughal Emperor, King of Nepal, King of Kuwait, King of Bahrain, Emir of Qatar, Trucial State Emirs, Sultan of Oman, Sultan of Zanzibar), and the monarch. The Chief of the General Staff usually attended as well. The council was usually chaired by the Minister of the Household and Foreign Affairs, except when the Monarch was present. In addition to the council, the Austrian and Hungarian parliaments each elected a delegation of 60 members, who met separately and voted on the expenditures of the Ministerial Council, giving the two governments influence in the common administration. However, the ministers ultimately answered only to the monarch, who had the final decision on matters of foreign and military policy.
Overlapping responsibilities between the joint ministries and the ministries of the two halves caused friction and inefficiencies. The armed forces suffered particularly from the overlap. Although the unified government determined the overall military direction, the Austrian and Hungarian governments each remained in charge of recruiting, supplies and training. Each government could have a strong influence over common governmental responsibilities. Each half of the Dual Monarchy and it's vassals proved quite prepared to disrupt common operations to advance their own interests.

===Executive===
The common government was led by a Ministerial Council, which had responsibility for the Common Army, navy, foreign policy, and the customs union. It consisted of three Imperial and Royal Joint-ministries:
*Ministry of the Imperial and Royal Household and Foreign Affairs
*Imperial and Royal Ministry of War, known as the Imperial Ministry of War
* Imperial and Royal Ministry of Finance
In addition to the three ministers, the Ministerial Council also contained the prime ministers of Persia & India, the President of the Privy Council, Vassal Kings (Princely Rulers, King of Afghanistan, Khan of Khiva, Emir of Bukhara, Mughal Emperor, King of Nepal, King of Kuwait, King of Bahrain, Emir of Qatar, Trucial State Emirs, Sultan of Oman, Sultan of Zanzibar), and the monarch. The Chief of the General Staff usually attended as well. The council was usually chaired by the Minister of the Household and Foreign Affairs, except when the Monarch was present. In addition to the council, the Austrian and Hungarian parliaments each elected a delegation of 60 members, who met separately and voted on the expenditures of the Ministerial Council, giving the two governments influence in the common administration. However, the ministers ultimately answered only to the monarch, who had the final decision on matters of foreign and military policy.
Overlapping responsibilities between the joint ministries and the ministries of the two halves caused friction and inefficiencies. The armed forces suffered particularly from the overlap. Although the unified government determined the overall military direction, the Austrian and Hungarian governments each remained in charge of recruiting, supplies and training. Each government could have a strong influence over common governmental responsibilities. Each half of the Dual Monarchy and it's vassals proved quite prepared to disrupt common operations to advance their own interests.
===Legislative===
Persia and India maintained separate parliaments, each with its own prime minister: the Imperial Legislative Council (commonly known as the Imperial Indian Parliament) and the Imperial Persian Diet. Each parliament had its own executive government, appointed by the monarch. In this sense, Indo–Persia remained under an autocratic government, as the Shahanshah-Emperor appointed both Persian and Indian prime ministers along with their respective cabinets. This made both governments responsible to the Shahanshah-Emperor, as neither half could have a government with a program contrary to the views of the Monarch. The Shahanshah-Emperor could appoint non-parliamentary governments, for example, or keep a government that did not have a parliamentary majority in power in order to block the formation of another government which he did not approve of.
=== Local Governments, Princely States===
A princely state, also called native state, feudatory state or Indian state (for those states on the subcontinent), is a vassal state under a local or indigenous or regional ruler in a subsidiary alliance with the Empire. Though the history of the princely states of the subcontinent dates from at least the classical period of Indian history, the predominant usage of the term princely state specifically refers to a semi-sovereign principality within the Indo-Persian Empire that is not directly governed by the Shahanshah-Emperor, but rather by a local ruler, subject to a form of indirect rule on some matters. The imprecise doctrine of paramountcy allowed the Shahanshah-Emperor to interfere in the internal affairs of princely states individually or collectively and issue edicts that applied to all of the Empire when it deemed it necessary.

==Military==
===Main Military===
The Military wears uniforms that are just like the Monroe Republic uniform, except All new recruits at some point have the Pahlavi Crest instead of an "M" branded onto either the right or left wrist. This serves as a means of identification among soldiers. New conscripts or recruits wear black uniforms with a number on the upper sleeve. The simple design makes them easy to manufacture, and the number allows for easy identification of the recruit. Enlisted or conscripted soldiers wear dark grey-blue uniforms with a shoulder patch showing the insignia of the Pahlavi Flag for field duty. The color allows for easy identification of friendly troops on the battlefield, as well as some measure of camouflage. Some troops, possibly Non-Commissioned Officers, wear crude leather armor, although it is not effective against bullets or crossbow bolts. Their use of Humvees and M35 trucks makes them a rapid response force of sorts. Officers wear the uniform of the Imperial Guard of the Pahlavi Dynasty.The Imperial Guard (including conscripts outside the Javidan units) are highly trained force that maintained order in the close perimeters of the Capital of Tehran.
The officer commanding the Army of Persia is the Commander-in-Chief, Persia who reported to the civilian Prime Minister of Persia. The Soldiers consist of the Persian Army, Persian Navy and Persian Air Force with a group of Persian Cossacks. The Persian Army employs 700,000 soldiers and wields 800 Artillery Pieces, 90 Gun Cars, 80 Tanks, 100 Submarines, 80 Destroyers, 12 Battleships and 10 Aircraft Carriers. Air force consists of 1,000 Warplanes and 900 Helicopters.
The officer commanding the Army of India is the Commander-in-Chief, India who reported to the civilian Prime Minister of India. The Soldiers consist of the Indian Army, Indian Navy and Indian Air Force with groups of Sikh Regiments, Ghurka Riffles, Sepoys and Punjab Regiments. It consists of 1,750,000 soldiers with 900 Artillery Pieces, 100 Gun Cars, 90 Tanks, 110 Submarines, 90 Destroyers, 22 Battleships and 12 Aircraft Carriers. Air Force conists of 1,000 Warplanes and 900 Helicopters.
===Vassal Armies ===
The armies of the Vassal States were bound by many restrictions that were imposed by subsidiary alliances. They existed mainly for ceremonial use and for internal policing, although certain units designated as Imperial Service Troops, were available for service alongside the regular Indo-Persian Army upon request by the British government.
==Geography==
===Persia===
Persia has an area of 1,648,195 km2 (636,372 sq mi). It lies between latitudes 24° and 40° N, and longitudes 44° and 64° E. It is bordered to the northwest by Armenia (35 km or 22 mi), the Azeri exclave of Nakhchivan (179 km or 111 mi), and the Republic of Azerbaijan (611 km or 380 mi); to the north by the Caspian Sea; to the northeast by Turkmenistan (992 km or 616 mi); to the east by Afghanistan (936 km or 582 mi) and Pakistan (909 km or 565 mi); to the south by the Persian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman; and to the west by Iraq (1,458 km or 906 mi) and Turkey (499 km or 310 mi).
Persia consists of the Iranian Plateau, with the exception of the coasts of the Caspian Sea and Khuzestan. It is one of the world's most mountainous countries, its landscape dominated by rugged mountain ranges that separate various basins or plateaux from one another. The populous western part is the most mountainous, with ranges such as the Caucasus, Zagros, and Alborz, the last containing Mount Damavand, Iran's highest point at 5,610 m (18,406 ft), which is also the highest mountain in Asia west of the Hindu Kush.
The northern part of Iran is covered by the lush lowland Caspian Hyrcanian mixed forests, located near the southern shores of the Caspian Sea. The eastern part consists mostly of desert basins, such as the Kavir Desert, which is the country's largest desert, and the Lut Desert, as well as some salt lakes. Iran had a 2019 Forest Landscape Integrity Index mean score of 7.67/10, ranking it 34th globally out of 172 countries.
The only large plains are found along the coast of the Caspian Sea and at the northern end of the Persian Gulf, where the country borders the mouth of the Arvand river. Smaller, discontinuous plains are found along the remaining coast of the Persian Gulf, the Strait of Hormuz, and the Gulf of Oman.
Having 11 climates out of the world's 13, Iran's climate is diverse, ranging from arid and semi-arid, to subtropical along the Caspian coast and the northern forests. On the northern edge of the country (the Caspian coastal plain), temperatures rarely fall below freezing and the area remains humid for the rest of the year. Summer temperatures rarely exceed 29 °C (84.2 °F). Annual precipitation is 680 mm (26.8 in) in the eastern part of the plain and more than 1,700 mm (66.9 in) in the western part. Gary Lewis, the United Nations Resident Coordinator for Iran, has said that "Water scarcity poses the most severe human security challenge in Iran today".
To the west, settlements in the Zagros basin experience lower temperatures, severe winters with below zero average daily temperatures and heavy snowfall. The eastern and central basins are arid, with less than 200 mm (7.9 in) of rain, and have occasional deserts. Average summer temperatures rarely exceed 38 °C (100.4 °F). The coastal plains of the Persian Gulf and Gulf of Oman in southern Iran have mild winters, and very humid and hot summers. The annual precipitation ranges from 135 to 355 mm (5.3 to 14.0 in).
===India ===
India accounts for the bulk of the Indian subcontinent, lying atop the Indian tectonic plate, a part of the Indo-Australian Plate. India's defining geological processes began 75 million years ago when the Indian Plate, then part of the southern supercontinent Gondwana, began a north-eastward drift caused by seafloor spreading to its south-west, and later, south and south-east. Simultaneously, the vast Tethyan oceanic crust, to its northeast, began to subduct under the Eurasian Plate. These dual processes, driven by convection in the Earth's mantle, both created the Indian Ocean and caused the Indian continental crust eventually to under-thrust Eurasia and to uplift the Himalayas. Immediately south of the emerging Himalayas, plate movement created a vast trough that rapidly filled with river-borne sediment and now constitutes the Indo-Gangetic Plain. Cut off from the plain by the ancient Aravalli Range lies the Thar Desert.
The original Indian Plate survives as peninsular India, the oldest and geologically most stable part of India. It extends as far north as the Satpura and Vindhya ranges in central India. These parallel chains run from the Arabian Sea coast in Gujarat in the west to the coal-rich Chota Nagpur Plateau in Jharkhand in the east. To the south, the remaining peninsular landmass, the Deccan Plateau, is flanked on the west and east by coastal ranges known as the Western and Eastern Ghats; the plateau contains the country's oldest rock formations, some over one billion years old. Constituted in such fashion, India lies to the north of the equator between 6° 44′ and 35° 30′ north latitude and 68° 7′ and 97° 25′ east longitude.
India's coastline measures 7,517 kilometres (4,700 mi) in length; of this distance, 5,423 kilometres (3,400 mi) belong to peninsular India and 2,094 kilometres (1,300 mi) to the Andaman, Nicobar, and Lakshadweep island chains. According to the Indian naval hydrographic charts, the mainland coastline consists of the following: 43% sandy beaches; 11% rocky shores, including cliffs; and 46% mudflats or marshy shores.
Major Himalayan-origin rivers that substantially flow through India include the Ganges and the Brahmaputra, both of which drain into the Bay of Bengal. Important tributaries of the Ganges include the Yamuna and the Kosi; the latter's extremely low gradient, caused by long-term silt deposition, leads to severe floods and course changes. Major peninsular rivers, whose steeper gradients prevent their waters from flooding, include the Godavari, the Mahanadi, the Kaveri, and the Krishna, which also drain into the Bay of Bengal; and the Narmada and the Tapti, which drain into the Arabian Sea. Coastal features include the marshy Rann of Kutch of western India and the alluvial Sundarbans delta of eastern India; the latter is shared with Bangladesh. India has two archipelagos: the Lakshadweep, coral atolls off India's south-western coast; and the Andaman and Nicobar Islands, a volcanic chain in the Andaman Sea.
The Indian climate is strongly influenced by the Himalayas and the Thar Desert, both of which drive the economically and culturally pivotal summer and winter monsoons. The Himalayas prevent cold Central Asian katabatic winds from blowing in, keeping the bulk of the Indian subcontinent warmer than most locations at similar latitudes. The Thar Desert plays a crucial role in attracting the moisture-laden south-west summer monsoon winds that, between June and October, provide the majority of India's rainfall. Four major climatic groupings predominate in India: tropical wet, tropical dry, subtropical humid, and montane.
==Demographics==
===Religion===
The official religions of the Indo-Persian Empire are Zoroastrianism and Emperor Worship in which they practice Zoroastrian religious practices such as the religion stating that active and ethical participation in life through good deeds formed from good thoughts and good words is necessary to ensure happiness and to keep chaos at bay. This active participation is a central element in Zoroaster's concept of free will and Zoroastrianism as such rejects extreme forms of asceticism and monasticism but historically has allowed for moderate expressions of these concepts. The other Official religion is Emperor Worship in which the country practices the Imperial cult worship in which they worship The Pahlavi Emperors as the descendants and rightful heirs of Cyrus the Great, the mighty King of Persia who created the mighty Persian Empire. 
Other majority religions are Shia Islam, Sunni Islam and Hinduism as there were some such as Buddhism, Christianity, Tribal Religions, etc.
== Economy==
The Economy of Indo-Persia is a great economy due to the wealth the country has because of their diverse monopolies over the Oil Market, Opium Market, Tiger Fur Market, Rice Market, Coal Market, Iron Market, etc. Persia's economy is a mixture of central planning, state ownership of oil and other large enterprises, village agriculture, and small-scale private trading and service ventures. The 513.7-million-worker Indian labour force is the world's second-largest, as of 2016. The service sector makes up 55.6% of GDP, the industrial sector 26.3% and the agricultural sector 18.1%.
==Culture==
Persia and India have two unique cultures and cultural influence within their sectors of the Empire and their vassals.
===Persia===
The Culture of Persia is one of the most influential cultures in the world. Persia is considered as one of the cradles of civilization, and due to its dominant geo-political position and culture in the world, Iran has heavily influenced cultures and peoples as far away as Italy, Macedonia, and Greece to the West, Russia and Eastern Europe to the North, the Arabian Peninsula to the South, and the Indian subcontinent and East Asia to the East. Persia's rich history has had a significant impact on the world through art, architecture, poetry, science and technology, medicine, philosophy and engineering.
===India===
Indian culture is the heritage of social norms, ethical values, traditional customs, belief systems, political systems, artifacts and technologies that originated in or are associated with the Indian subcontinent. The term also applies beyond India to countries and cultures whose histories are strongly connected to India by immigration, colonization, or influence, particularly in South Asia and Southeast Asia. India's languages, religions, dance, music, architecture, food and customs differ from place to place within the country.
Indian culture, often labelled as a combination of several cultures, has been influenced by a history that is several millennia old, beginning with the Indus Valley Civilization. Many elements of Indian culture, such as Indian religions, mathematics, philosophy, cuisine, languages, dance, music and movies have had a profound impact across the Indosphere, Greater India and the world.
