Iran and Nuclear Weapons: A Review of Imperatives and Options
By Dr Assad Homayoun*
Iran ’s Place in the Global Chessboard

A small segment taken from the report:
Only a small number of 200 or so nations and entities in the world are of major importance geopolitically, and their geographic size or location on the globe is usually a key factor. They are all equal in term of law, but not in terms of power and geopolitical values. Whether by accident or not, the distribution of territory among nations is uneven. Large territories, with big population, and vast natural resources are important. Historical
background and cultural and economic importance will give more opportunity for wise leadership to play a significant rôle in international politics and better fulfill their states’ potentials and shape their destinies.
The surface of the earth is approximately 197-million square miles, 70 percent of which is covered by water, and 5.5-million square miles are in icebound Antarctica . There remains 52-million square miles of land surface for nearly 200 nations with a total population in excess over six billions. There are 18 geographically large countries, with Iran ranking 17th among them with 636,000 square miles of territory, and a unique geo-strategic situation. It has a population of 70-million, with a long history, strong intellectual and cultural tradition, and nationalism, and bountiful natural resources, especially vast reserves of oil and natural gas. It has 12 percent of world’s proven reserves of petroleum and also possesses the world’s second largest reserves of natural gas.
