Answer:
Iran.
Step-by-step explanation:
A policy of extending the rule of one nation to the foreign nations, usually by force, or by regulating the economic and political affairs of other nations, is known as Imperialism. In the 1700's, Iran lost many of its territories to European nations, particularly to Russia and Britain. During the initial phase of the 19th century, Iran was a backward society. During the later phase of the 19th century, Russia and Great Britain fought over the control of Iran.
