Iranian Chess Championship

The Iranian Chess Championship is the yearly national chess championship of Iran. The competition was not held between 1980 and 1990 (1359 and 1369 according to the Iranian calendar), when chess was forbidden in Iran. There is also a gap between 1978 and 1980 (1356 and 1358) because of the Iran Revolution.
