Treaty of Stolitsa (The Great Peace Map Game)

The Treaty of Stolitsa was an agreement to settle the end of the Arab-Persian conflict in the Middle East. It was signed in the neuteral city of Stolitsa in Russia on July 27, 1957.

Arab-Persian War
The course of the war began when the Hashemite Kingdom fo Arabia changed its government over to the democratic state of the Republic of Arabia. The Shahdom of Persia, fearing the strength of democracy in the Middle East, supported the unlawlful claimaint of Talal al-Hashem as monarch of Arabia, even after the Hashemite monarch Zeid al-Hashem accepted rule of the autonomous region of Hejaz. Persia invaded Iraq. Egypt (United Arab Republic) and Turkey intervened on the side of Arabia, seeing it necessary to counteract the imbalance of power by the Persians. In the course of the war, Persia alone against Egypt and Arabia managed to push back considerably into the territory of Iraq. However, Turkey pushed from the north through Azerbaijann, and seized Tehran in a span of six months.

Minorities within Persia
For a long time, the Kurdish and Azeri people suffered within persecution and marginalization of the monarchist states within the Middle East, including Arabia and Persia. After rights had been granted to the Kurds within the states of Turkey and Arabia, only Persia remained. Additionally, Arab nationalism had spread into Persia via the Arab-majority region of Kuzestan in Iran.
