I don't know much about Iranian history, but in Persepolis Satrapi's father tells her that her great-grandfather was the last emperor of Iran, so I assume that's Ahmad Shah Qajar. He also says that his son, Marjane's grandfather, became prime minister under Reza Pahlavi, and later became a Marxist. Who was this? I can't find any reference to anyone who meets this description. —Chowbok 18:13, 22 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Neither can I. I just added to the article information from a newspaper article which indicates she isn't descended from the last Qajar Shah, but from one a few generations earlier. Guess the book isn't totally reliable for biographical data :) --Lukobe 06:02, 22 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
