An Iranian woman was presented with a medal and cash award in 2004 for an invention using 100% cotton as insulating material in place of (dangerous) asbestos.  See the link.  As with most countries, there is no shortage of bright minds there despite a government that likely does not reflect the true will of the people because many candidates for elective office are excluded for political reasons by those in power.  Let's hope that one day the Iranians will be free, and soon.

1) The Telephone \nThe telephone is an instrument that converts voice and sound signals into electrical impulses for transmission by wire to a different location, where another telephone receives the electrical impulses and turns them back into recognizable sounds. In 1875, Alexander Graham Bell built the first telephone that transmitted electrically the human voice.\n2) The History of Computers\nThere are many major milestones in the history of computers, starting with 1936, when Konrad Zuse built the first freely programmable computer.\n3) Television \nIn 1884, Paul Nipkow sent images over wires using a rotating metal disk technology with 18 lines of resolution. Television then evolved along two paths, mechanical based on Nipkow's rotating disks, and electronic based on the cathode ray tube. American Charles Jenkins and Scotsman John Baird followed the mechanical model while Philo Farnsworth, working independently in San Francisco, and Russian émigré Vladimir Zworkin, working for Westinghouse and later RCA, advanced the electronic model.\n4) The Automobile\nIn 1769, the very first self-propelled road vehicle was invented by French mechanic, Nicolas Joseph Cugnot. However, it was a steam-powered model. In 1885, Karl Benz designed and built the world's first practical automobile to be powered by an internal-combustion engine. In 1885, Gottlieb Daimler took the internal combustion engine a step further and patented what is generally recognized as the prototype of the modern gas engine and later built the world's first four-wheeled motor vehicle.\n5) The Cotton Gin \nEli Whitney patented the cotton gin on March 14, 1794. The cotton gin is a machine that separates seeds, hulls and other unwanted materials from cotton after it has been picked.\n6) The Camera\nIn 1814, Joseph Nicéphore Niépce created the first photographic image with a camera obscura, however, the image required eight hours of light exposure and later faded. Louis-Jacques-Mandé Daguerre is considered the inventor of the first practical process of photography in 1837.\n7) The Steam Engine\nThomas Savery was an English military engineer and inventor who in 1698, patented the first crude steam engine. Thomas Newcomen invented the atmospheric steam engine in 1712. James Watt improved Newcomen's design and invented what is considered the first modern steam engine in 1765.\n8) The Sewing Machine\nThe first functional sewing machine was invented by the French tailor, Barthelemy Thimonnier, in 1830. In 1834, Walter Hunt built America's first (somewhat) successful sewing machine. Elias Howe patented the first lockstitch sewing machine in 1846. Isaac Singer invented the up-and-down motion mechanism. In 1857, James Gibbs patented the first chain-stitch single-thread sewing machine. Helen Augusta Blanchard patented the first zig-zag stitch machine in 1873.\n9) The Light Bulb\nContrary to popular belief, Thomas Alva Edison didn't "invent" the light bulb, but rather he improved upon a 50-year-old idea. In 1809, Humphry Davy, an English chemist, invented the first electric light. In 1878, Sir Joseph Wilson Swan, an English physicist, was the first person to invent a practical and longer-lasting electic lightbulb (13.5 hours) with a carbon fiber filament. In 1879, Thomas Alva Edison invented a carbon filament that burned for forty hours.\n10) Penicillin \nPenicillin was discovered by Alexander Fleming in 1928. Andrew Moyer patented the first method of industrial production of penicillin in 1948.

There are new inventions / discoveries practically every day.  The best catalog of them I've seen used to be the McGraw Hill Yearbook of Science and Technology.  But the IEEE and ACM both have great tech newsletters talking about new discoveries and inventions.\n\nIf you're tlaking about non-tech stuff, you only need look as far as the discovery of new islands just off Togo... a couple of weeks ago, a yachter discovered "pumice rafts" drifting in the ocean from an underwater volcano, and within a week an island had formed.\n\nFor a start, check out the Science News section of Yahoo.

invented by a guy from texas instruments in the mid 1970's.\n\nThe first computer was made in the late 1600's. It was a big machine made from brass gears and valves and could perform mathematcal integration. Hardly worthy of UFO conspiracy theory\n\nThere hasn't been a fundamental change in computers for about 20 years, when the last logic gate was invented.\n\nAll changes have been in materials technology and manufacturing processes

In the 6th century bc the territory of present-day Iran was the center of the Persian Empire, the world’s preeminent power at that time. For more than 2,000 years, the region’s inhabitants have referred to it by the name Iran, derived from the Aryan tribes who settled the area long ago. However, until 1935, when the Iranian ruler demanded that the name Iran be used, the English-speaking world knew the country as Persia, a legacy of the Greeks who named the region after its most important province, Pars (present-day Fārs). Iran was a monarchy ruled by a shah, or king, almost without interruption from 1501 until 1979, when a yearlong popular revolution led by the Shia clergy culminated in the overthrow of the monarchy and the establishment of an Islamic republic. See Islamic Revolution of Iran.

A technological development that permitted sailors to estimate how far east and west they are is the invention of portable, reliable timepieces.  There is a wonderful non-fiction book about this called "Longitude" by Dave Sobel.\n\nhttp://www.amazon.com/Longitude-Genius-Greatest-Scientific-Problem/dp/0140258795/\n\nThe concept of time based navigation had been around for quite a while, but it took a long concerted effort to develop the tools necessary. John Harrison developed his first mechanical chronometer over seven years and tested it at sea for the first time in 1738.\n\nAs was said above, North-South navigation has been around since prehistory.

Iran has been inhabited by human beings since pre-historic times and recent discoveries have begun to shed light upon what early human culture was like in Iran, centuries before the earliest civilizations arose in nearby Mesopotamia.[6] The written history of Persia (Iran) begins around 3200 BCE with the Proto-Elamite civilization, and continues with the arrival of the Aryans and the establishment of the Median dynasty, followed in 546 BCE by the Achaemenid Empire. Alexander the Great conquered Persia in 331 BCE, only to be succeeded by the Parthian and Sassanid dynasties, which followed the Achaemenids, who had established the world's "largest and most powerful empire ever known in human history up until that point".[1]\n\nFollowing the Islamic conquest of Persia, the country was at the heart of the Islamic Golden Age, especially during the 9th to 11th centuries. The Middle Ages saw many critical events in the region. From 1220, Persia was invaded and destroyed by the Mongol invasion, followed later by Timur. Persia's first Shi'a Islamic state was established under the Safavid dynasty in 1501. Persia increasingly became the arena for rival colonial powers such as Imperial Russia and the British Empire.\n\nWith the rise of communism and modernization in the late 19th century, desire for change led to the Persian Constitutional Revolution of 1905–1911. In 1921, Reza Shah Pahlavi staged a coup against the Qajar dynasty. A supporter of modernization, Reza Shah planned to develop industry, build railroads, and establish a national education system, but his autocratic rule created discontent among many Iranians.\n\nDuring World War II, Britain and the USSR invaded Iran from August 25 to September 17, 1941, mainly to secure Iran's oil resources and a supply corridor for themselves. The Allies of World War II forced the shah to abdicate in favor of his son, Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, who they hoped would be more supportive of them. In 1953, following the nationalization of the Anglo-Iranian Oil Company, democratically elected Prime Minister Mohammed Mossadegh attempted to convince the Shah to leave the country. The Shah refused, and formally dismissed the Prime Minister. Mossadegh also refused to leave, and when it became evident that he was going to fight, the Shah (as foreseen by the British/American "Operation Ajax") fled to Baghdad as a precautionary measure and on from there to Rome.\n\nMassive protests broke out across the nation. Anti- and pro-monarchy protestors violently clashed in the streets, leaving almost 300 dead. The military intervened as the pro-Shah tank regiments stormed the capital and bombarded the prime minister's official residence. Mossadegh surrendered, and was arrested on August 19, 1953. Mossadegh was tried for treason, and sentenced to three years in prison.\n\nThe Shah was reinstated and power handed to Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi by the U.S. and U.K., whose rule became increasingly dictatorial in the following years, particularly the late 1970s. With strong support from the US and UK, the Shah further modernized Iranian industry, but simultaneously crushed opposition from the Shia clergy and from advocates of democracy.\n\nRead more from Wiki : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iran#History\n\nThe written history of Iran begins with the early Achaemenids, some 2,500 years ago, but since then till the dawn of Islam in Iran, all that is available on the Iranian history has been written by the ancient Greeks, who were then Iran's greatest enemies. So, the pre-Islamic historical sources are not completely reliable although there are indications that Greek historians often faithfully recorded the facts. \n\nWas there no Iranian Herodotus or Xenophon, or were Iranian historical records destroyed in the many invasions that followed? The answer is not clear. But of the ancient past, certain mythological stories have survived which had been collected during the Sassanid era; an

From what I remember from some obscure text, that country never "changed" its name.  Iran is the older name of the two; however, Europeans called it Persia, and Europeans' names tend to stick.  They officially adopted the name "Iran" in 1935.
