Summary[edit]

Description
English: Detail of a map of Iran's "ethnoreligious distribution" from an info-graphic about Iran prepared by the United States Central Intelligence Agency in 2009, including a text overview and general map of Iran, with inset maps comparing the size of Iran and the western United States and a location map of Iran on an orthographic projection, and a list of major historical events between 1908 and 2009. Also included are a relief map of Iran's regional physiography, population density, and ethno-religious distribution, together with inset maps of Iran's "key petroleum sector facilities", its "southern Caspian energy prospects", and the Straits of Hormuz. In the map's north-eastern corner (not shown here) is a note stating that "boundary representation is not necessarily authoritative".
