This area of native <a href="/wiki/Kingdom_of_Armenia_(antiquity)" title="Kingdom of Armenia (antiquity)">Armenian settlement</a>, housed prior to the <a href="/wiki/Armenian_genocide" title="Armenian genocide">Armenian genocide</a> as well as other events of the 20th century (e.g. <a href="/wiki/Iran_crisis_of_1946" title="Iran crisis of 1946">Iran crisis of 1946</a>, <a href="/wiki/Iranian_Revolution" class="mw-redirect" title="Iranian Revolution">Iranian Revolution</a>), a significant native Armenian population. Apart from the ARF, the <a href="/wiki/Social_Democrat_Hunchakian_Party" title="Social Democrat Hunchakian Party">Social Democrat Hunchakian Party</a> was active there as well, and was often at odds with the (much larger) ARF. </p><p>Shortly after the foundation of the ARF in 1890, it already began to send representatives to recruit Armenian members living in <a href="/wiki/Qajar_Iran" title="Qajar Iran">Qajar Iran</a>. As the <i><a href="/wiki/Encyclopaedia_Iranica" class="mw-redirect" title="Encyclopaedia Iranica">Encyclopaedia Iranica</a></i> states, among the earliest ARF leaders in Persia were; Yonan Dawtʿean, Ishkhan Yovsēpʿ Arłutʿean, <a href="/wiki/Nikol_Duman" title="Nikol Duman">Nikol Duman</a> (Nikoghayos Ter-Hovhannisyan), <a href="/wiki/Stepan_Zorian" title="Stepan Zorian">Stepan Zorian</a> (<i>nom de guerre</i>; Ṙostom), <a href="/wiki/Sargis_Mehrabyan" title="Sargis Mehrabyan">Sargis Mehrabyan</a> (<i>nom de guerre</i>; Vartan), Farhat (Sargis Ōhan-ǰanean), Karō (Aristakēs Zōrean), <a href="/wiki/Stepan_Stepanian" title="Stepan Stepanian">Stepan Stepanian</a> (Balajan), Zakʿkʿi (Bagrat Vardapet Tʿawakʿalean), Tsaghik (Satʿenik Matinean), Yovsēpʿ Mirzayean, Vrtʿanēs Pʿapʿazean, Yarutʿiwn Martirosean, Arsēn Mikʿayēlean, and <a href="/wiki/Yovhann%C4%93s_Khan_Masehean" class="mw-redirect" title="Yovhannēs Khan Masehean">Yovhannēs Khan Masehean</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The ARF drew most of its support from the Armenians from <a href="/wiki/Tabriz" title="Tabriz">Tabriz</a>, and in particular from the <a href="/wiki/Lilava" title="Lilava">Lilava</a> district. Its activities were mainly to provide a safe gateway for the transportation of weapons and fighters from the <a href="/wiki/Caucasus" title="Caucasus">Caucasus</a> to the <a href="/wiki/Six_vilayets" class="mw-redirect" title="Six vilayets">Armenian provinces</a> of the <a href="/wiki/Ottoman_empire" class="mw-redirect" title="Ottoman empire">Ottoman empire</a>. They used the <a href="/wiki/St._Thaddeus_Monastery" class="mw-redirect" title="St. Thaddeus Monastery">St. Thaddeus Monastery</a> (located near <a href="/wiki/Maku,_Iran" title="Maku, Iran">Maku</a>; <a href="/wiki/Armenian_language" title="Armenian language">Armenian</a>: <span lang="hy">Մակու</span>) and the <a href="/wiki/Saint_Stepanos_Monastery" title="Saint Stepanos Monastery">Saint Stepanos Monastery</a> on the <a href="/wiki/Aras_River" class="mw-redirect" title="Aras River">Aras River</a> as their bases of operations; both monasteries would play a significant role in the large scale smuggling of fighters, literature and weapons into <a href="/wiki/Ottoman_Armenia" class="mw-redirect" title="Ottoman Armenia">Ottoman Armenia</a> by the ARF. The ARF even had one arms factory in Tabriz at their disposal, which was founded in 1891. At the same time, the ARF used the <a href="/wiki/Caspian_Sea" title="Caspian Sea">Caspian</a> cities of <a href="/wiki/Bandar-e-Anzali" class="mw-redirect" title="Bandar-e-Anzali">Anzali</a>, <a href="/wiki/Rasht" title="Rasht">Rasht</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Astara,_Iran" title="Astara, Iran">Astara</a> as important centers of party communications with the nearby city of <a href="/wiki/Baku" title="Baku">Baku</a>, the latter which was also regarded as an important ARF base in the region. The ARF had a long history of making publications; first, it published weekly <i>Aravat</i> in Tabriz (1909–12), as well as the monthly <i>Garabar</i>, which was later changed to <i>Gharadag</i> (1913–14), as well as the weekly <i>Ayg</i> (1914–20), the latter which eventually replaced Aravat as the main publication of the party. A weekly youth magazine was also produced by the younger members of the ARF, which was called the <i>Aršaloys</i>. </p><p>Around the same time, the Armenian community in Tehran had grown rapidly in size and importance, and therefore the ARF founded another central committee there in 1911. After <a href="/wiki/World_War_II" title="World War II">World War II</a>, when the Soviets prolonged their occupation of Iran which resulted in the Crisis of 1946, as well as through the large scale emigration to <a href="/wiki/Soviet_Armenia" class="mw-redirect" title="Soviet Armenia">Soviet Armenia</a>, the ARF central committee in Tabriz was downgraded to a committee. </p><p>ARF guerilla groups crossed the Ottoman border from <a href="/wiki/Iranian_Azerbaijan" class="mw-redirect" title="Iranian Azerbaijan">Iranian Azerbaijan</a> to fight the Ottomans. The Iranian monarchy permitted such guerrilla operations as it was beneficial to them as well, as it weakened the Ottoman authority over the Kurdish tribes who lived in the Ottoman-Qajar border regions, and which occasionally created issues for the Iranian central authority. The Iranian government, which was weak at the time, acted only against ARF activities under pressure from the <a href="/wiki/Imperial_Russia" class="mw-redirect" title="Imperial Russia">Russian</a> or Ottoman governments. For example, according to the <i><a href="/wiki/Encyclopaedia_Iranica" class="mw-redirect" title="Encyclopaedia Iranica">Encyclopaedia Iranica</a></i>, after the <a href="/wiki/Khanasor_Expedition" title="Khanasor Expedition">Khanasor Expedition</a> to the province of Van in 1897, many ARF fighters and guerillas were arrested and nine executed by the Iranian government.<sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Party operations were temporarily slowed down by continued foreign pressure, and during the economic crisis of 1901 the attention of the Armenian community was therefore turned elsewhere. However, in the years of 1904–1906, the ARF grew again to its former strength.<sup id="cite_ref-6" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> At that time, the <a href="/wiki/Iranian_Constitutional_Revolution" class="mw-redirect" title="Iranian Constitutional Revolution">Iranian Constitutional Revolution</a> was in the making. As an example listed by the <i>Encyclopaedia Iranica</i>; "as a result of <a href="/wiki/Armenian%E2%80%93Tatar_massacres_of_1905%E2%80%9307" class="mw-redirect" title="Armenian–Tatar massacres of 1905–07">clashes between Armenians and Tatars in the Caucasus in 1905-06</a> it was the ARF that prepared to defend the Persian Armenian population should the conflict spread across the border, which fortunately did not happen".<sup id="cite_ref-7" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>7<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Iranian_Constitutional_Revolution">Iranian Constitutional Revolution</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Armenian_Revolutionary_Federation_in_Iran&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Iranian Constitutional Revolution"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1236090951">.mw-parser-output .hatnote{font-style:italic}.mw-parser-output div.hatnote{padding-left:1.6em;margin-bottom:0.5em}.mw-parser-output .hatnote i{font-style:normal}.mw-parser-output .hatnote+link+.hatnote{margin-top:-0.5em}@media print{body.ns-0 .mw-parser-output .hatnote{display:none!important}}</style><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main articles: <a href="/wiki/Iranian_Constitutional_Revolution" class="mw-redirect" title="Iranian Constitutional Revolution">Iranian Constitutional Revolution</a> and <a href="/wiki/Armenian_Revolutionary_Federation#Persian_Empire" title="Armenian Revolutionary Federation">Armenian_Revolutionary_Federation § Persian_Empire</a></div> <p>The most important episode of the ARF in Iranian history happened during the Iranian Constitutional Revolution. Members of the ARF were individually involved with the constitutionalist faction since 1906. Further commitment of the ARF to the constitutional cause was fueled by the Ottoman incursions into Iranian Azerbaijan, and the overall pillaging of Armenian villages in the region. In 1907, during the Fourth General Congress, a voting was done by the ARF leaders to discuss the ARF's open and official involvement in the Constitutional Revolution. With 25 votes in favour and 1 in absentia,<sup id="cite_ref-Early_Dashnaktsutiun_role_in_Iranian_Constitutional_Revolution_8-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Early_Dashnaktsutiun_role_in_Iranian_Constitutional_Revolution-8"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>8<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> the ARF now was officially involved in the happening. In 1908 and early 1909, amidst the Iranian Constitutional Revolution, Armenian battalions and fighters formed crucial portions of the revolutionary forces led by <a href="/wiki/Sattar_Khan" title="Sattar Khan">Sattar Khan</a> and <a href="/wiki/Baqer_Khan" class="mw-redirect" title="Baqer Khan">Baqer Khan</a>, and they played a pivotal role in the efforts of the constitutionalists to gain control of various parts of Iranian Azerbaijan.<sup id="cite_ref-9" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-9"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>9<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> <i><a href="/wiki/Armenian_fedayi" title="Armenian fedayi">Fedayi</a></i> <a href="/wiki/Nikol_Duman" title="Nikol Duman">Nikol Duman</a> was involved in the defense of Tabriz leading the constitutional defense, until December 1911, when the Russian forces <a href="/wiki/Russian_Invasion_of_Tabriz,_1911" class="mw-redirect" title="Russian Invasion of Tabriz, 1911">completely defeated them</a>.
