The nineteenth century AD is one of the most important and influential periods in the history of Iran. The emergence of great European powers and their extensive interference in the internal affairs of Iran on the one hand threatened the political-economic independence of the country and on the other hand introduced Iranian intellectuals to Western science and technology. Iran's strategic position, which was adjacent to the two superpowers at the time, Russia and Britain, and the two countries' competition for greater benefits led to the signing of treaties and the concession of concessions to them. European ambassadors and representatives, examining the geographical situation and resources of Iran, began to compile works that, although mainly serving the national interests of their respective countries, can be considered in some respects, but their use must be carefully considered. This study shows that the reports and works of British tourists and ambassadors from the Nasserite Iranian society, which pointed to the tyranny of the governing body, the weakness and ignorance of the people about the world situation, internal differences between different ethnicities, factors of Iran's decline and backwardness , Be reviewed.
