The Iranian Revolution had a major impact on the politics of Arab countries because:
- Iranian ideas about Islam spread throughout the Middle East, influencing the beliefs and actions of Muslims in other Arab countries.
- The revolution demonstrated that it was possible to base a government on religion, inspiring similar movements in Arab countries.
- Iran's large size and influence in the region made its political changes significant and had a ripple effect on neighboring Arab countries.
- Iran's invasion and occupation of large territories outside Iran, such as during the Iran-Iraq War, brought the conflict to the forefront of regional political dynamics.
Based on these reasons, the correct answer would be:
The Iranian Revolution demonstrated that it was possible to base a government on religion.
