History

The first mention of the name of Shiraz was given to the Elamite clay tablets. 4000 years ago. In this tablet of Shiraz, it is called Tiraziz, which has been styled in Ancient Persian “Shiraziz”.

After the Afghan invasion of Iran and the fall of the Safavid, the descent of Shiraz began and then, with the rebellion of the local rulers during the Afsharian period against Nader Shah, this deteriorated. Nadir Shah led the army to Shiraz and the city fell after several months of siege. Shiraz boomed fast. Karim Khan Zand Shirazi was chosen as the capital of his reign.
