What was life like during the Qajar dynasty?

In conclusion, economically Iran faced periods of stagnation and decline during the Qajar era due to a combination of internal mismanagement and external pressures from European powers. The decline of traditional industries, excessive spending by the ruling elite, and unequal treaties imposed by foreign powers all contributed to the economic woes of Iran during this period. The consequences of this economic decline were felt by the Iranian people in the form of rising poverty, unemployment, and social unrest.
