The December 1979 constitution, and its 1989 amendment, define the political, economic, and social order of the Islamic Republic of Iran, declaring that Shi'a Islam of the Twelver school of thought is Iran's official religion.
Iran has an elected president, parliament (or Majlis), and an "Assembly of Experts" (which elects the Supreme Leader of Iran), and local councils. All of them must be selected by the Guardian Council before being elected. In addition it has "shadow" or "parallel" institutions intended to oversee the elected officials and "protect the state's Islamic character".[1] The majority of the Iranian political parties are banned.
