Abstract :
World War I also caused some conflict in the East, especially in Iran. Different parts in Iran, especially nomadic areas, were engaged in this conflict. To damage and threaten the English interests in Baloochestan, Germans entered the region, which created some currents among the Balooch, among which supporting the English and spreading of arm smuggling are worth mentioning. To secure their interests, the English established ties with the heads of Balooch and also tried to have friendly relationships with Balooch nomads by establishing Mokran group. However, some Balooch tribes resisted the English, waged wars against them and caused serious problems for them. English sources blamed Germans for such resistance, but Iranian Balooch's measures against Germans show that they fought against foreigners to save their land. Baloochestan in World War I and the measures of the English and the German in this region are among the things discussed in the present study.
