Protests intensified, particularly against the Shah's modernization efforts which conflicted with traditional values. Ultimately, the revolution led to the overthrow of the Pahlavi dynasty and the establishment of the Islamic Republic of Iran, marking a profound shift in the country's political and social landscape.
