Description

On the

Islamic Republic. On 12 Farvadin, the referendum results were announced, with 98.2 percent of the Iranians reportedly voting for an Islamic Republic.[2][7][8]

Before the referendum, some political groups suggested various names consonant with the ideology of the revolution, such as a Republic or a Democratic Republic. But Ruhollah Khomeini, the founder of the Islamic Republic of Iran, asked the people to vote for an Islamic Republic, not a word more and not one less word.[8][9]

12 Farvardin is a book about events of Islamic Republic Day. Other books have also been published about this holiday.[10]

12 Farvardin is also the day of the Martyrdom of Imam Ali al-Hadi.[11]

The day usually falls on 1 April, however, as it is determined by the vernal equinox, the date can change if the equinox does not fall on 21 March. In 2016, it was on 31 March,[12] and in 2017, 2019, 2021, 2022 and 2023 the date was back to 1 April.[13][14]
