They say RezaShah was uneducated and want to abject him by this parol but it’s not true. Reza was an orphan child who grow up in hardship.
Heretofore, education was appertain to first class races and plutocracy. A lot of seigneures, princes and smart sets(!) were racially stupid, although they had tutors they even didn’t earn a limited education.
So it wasn’t a foible for RezaShah that was uneducated, but it was his intensity that malgre uneducationary earn that high degree and be the pendragon!
