Markazi (استان مرکزی in Persian) is one of the 28 provinces of Iran. It is in the west of the country, and its capital is Arak. The present boundaries of the province date to the 1980s, when the province was split into the current Markazi and the Tehran province, with portions being annexed to Esfahan, Semnan province and Zanjan.
