Abstract
At the beginning of the Qajar government Balochistan was caught in the chaos caused by the conflict of local Khans. A large part of this region that has always been a part of the historical geography of Iran finally broke through the intervention of the United Kingdom.
The researcher is trying to find an appropriate response to the question whether at the beginning of the Qajar rule could they consolidate the central government in Balochistan? Another question is during the reign of Fath Ali Shah and Mohammad Ali Shah who had a role in the political scene of the government? The assumption is that local conflicts in Balochistan that were rooted in the middle history of Iran, did not give the chance of consolidation of Iranian sovereignty over the region after the collapse of the Safavid and Afshari Dynasty, and the British government also tried to take the advantage of the political uncertainty for its the imperial greed.
The present study by using “historical descript and analyses” method shows that Balochestan was the center of different unrests at the beginning of the Qajar period, and the British government tried to use the opportunity to increase the chaos with sectarian. Qajar because of the conflict with Russia and the UK government and the incompetence of some officials failed to fully establish Iran's sovereignty over these areas.
