I think you confused Saudi Arabia, the desert country ruled by a king imposed on them by the British Empire to oversee the extraction of oil with Iran, the country that had that, until a local militant religious movement overthrew him.

Hell half of Iran isn't even desert, Tehran has the climate of Colorado.

Colorado is a desert...

well it's half mountainous half desert. Tehran's north is on the mountainside and it gradually transitions to desert on the south side.
