Abstract

Simultaneously with the rebellions of the late Nader Shah era and the political turmoil after his death, the grounds for the emergence of local governments in various regions of Iran were prepared. The government of Nasir Khan Lari in the Larestan and Bandar Abbas regions was one of these governments. He made many efforts to restore the previous power of the Larestan local government. This restoration of local power in that turbulent atmosphere could have had a relative impact on the commercial conditions of the Larestan region. The aforementioned research, using a descriptive-analytical method and based on library data, attempts to examine the issue of why, despite Nasir Khan's efforts, the previous commercial position of this hinterland city did not return to the favorable situation of the Safavid era. The results of this research show that, despite his many efforts to restore commercial stability, Nasir Khan was unable to prevent the decline of Lar's commercial position due to the deterioration of the security situation caused by the Afghan invasion, continuity of frequent rebellions in the southern region of Iran, the tendency of merchants to gradually change the trade route to the port of Bushehr, and Karim Khan Zand's many clashes with him in Larestan and the surrounding areas. In fact, success in reviving trade in this region and halting the decline of this process required integration at all domestic and regional levels and could not rely solely on Nasir Khan's local policies and measures..
