Pivot of the Universe: Nasir Al-Din Shah Qajar and the Iranian Monarchy, 1831-1896
Nasir al-Din's personal hero, Peter the Great of Russia, was never as docile as he was.
As for his capital modernization attempts, the introduction of the telegraph, the purchasing of the four cannon ship Persepolis, and the five mile long railway from Tehran to Shah 'Abd al-'Azim, were too little for a reign of 48 years to win him great praise.

October 21, 2002 - Nasir Jones made a debut like no other on Main Source's Live at the BBQ in 1991 and ever since then expectations have been high (sometimes unreasonably) for the Queensbridge native.
Young Nasir did not disappoint on his debut, barely a man he dropped perhaps the best hip-hop album ever heard.
