The correct option for this is:

Under the Shah, Iran was governed as a Military State. The last Shah of Iran Reza Pahlavi´s father was also a military. His view of the Republic was to transform Iran into a modern country. He supported many ideas from the west world, and opened the doors of the country to many foreign investments and ideal. This was not well accepted by the religious part of the government. Having the Islamism as the religious that ruled the country, many of these reforms were not seen with good eyes. That is was in 1979, a revolutionary movement against the Shah transformed Iran into an Islamic Republic.
