Each society has its own structure and constituent elements, the result of which shape its political-social developments. This article is descriptive-analytical and uses a library method. In the last hundred years, Iranian society has undergone profound changes, which have been the result of the collision of the constituent elements of society in Iran. To understand these developments, one should focus on the constituent elements of Iranian society and its active and passive forces and classes. In Iran, it is possible to refer to three structures, tribal-nomadic, rural, and urban, that each of them has forces and classes within it, and governments are formed from the collision of these forces and classes. Most of the governments in Iran were formed based on the same patriarchal and tribal relations, but in the new era, due to the changes that have occurred, the influence of the traditional classes was less and passive, and the new classes became more active and formed the modern state in Iran. Of course, in recent centuries, the government, which was dependent on the classes, has reduced its dependence on these forces by acquiring new resources and has tried to change and relocate them. In this article, we intend to study the class structure of Iranian society and the relationships, and their forces, actions, and reactions in the creation of the modern state.
