Historiography has become a source for teaching and transmitting social knowledge, identity building, legitimation, and political and social activism in terms of the major political and social functions it plays in human life. In state-nation thinking, historiography is the basis for creating and strengthening social concepts, values and norms on which political and social structures are based and have organized social solidarity, security and political order.

Castles are one of the buildings that were considered as urban planning necessities in the Sassanid period and were used as defense-security structures and places of governance that were generally built in the heights. Natural and geographical conditions have had the greatest impact on the construction of these works. In such a way that these buildings were usually built overlooking the plains and communication routes. The special situation of the mountains in the west of Iran, especially in Lorestan province, has caused its communication highways to not change direction since ancient times. In this regard, during the study in the east of Poldakhtar, a number of structures and castles (Sarogol and Saronaz) were encountered, which were a combination of rubble, clay and lime. The purpose of this study is to investigate the security-defense structures of the Sassanids in the area of Takhtchan valley, which has examined the castles created in the valley of Seymareh. The research method is descriptive-analytical and data collection is in two methods field and library. The authors of the study have concluded that this type of structures and castles belong to the Sassanids, considering the type of architecture of structures and castles, the use of oral traditions and historical books, important ancient roads and other castles in the region. . The results also show that the function of the forts found in Takht-e-Chachan valley was one of the Sassanid actions to defend the security of their cities, which were created in areas that were along the path of ancient highways.

The Southern newspaper, headed by Mohammad Baqer Tangestani, was one of the most important and influential newspapers in the constitutional period, which emphasized the realization of the power of the central government with the aim of fighting tyranny. While reflecting the chaotic years before the constitution, this newspaper considered one of the constitutional goals to be maintaining order and security and exercising the authority of the central government. The present article, via a descriptive-analytical method and through analyzing the content of the Southern newspaper, seeks to find an answer to the question: what was the necessity of withdrawing military forces from tribes and nomads from the perspective of the newspaper? The findings suggest that the newspaper, criticizing the pre-constitutional status of sectarian monarchies, considered the need to recruit and employ tribes in state military organizations as a powerful military group a step in the right direction and passed the bill in the National Assembly as a step towards He knew the stability of security inside and outside the country.

Ardeshir Babakan founded the Sassanid Empire with a victory over the Fifth Parthian Army in 224 AD. The issue of trophies played an important role in organizing social, economic and even military-disciplinary affairs in the Sassanid period. Ardeshir and his successors, in addition to receiving taxes and duties, also paid other income to cover the expenses of the court, the expenses of the troops, and the expenses of public affairs. One of these revenues was the spoils of war. This article utilized a descriptive-analytical method, with the aim of examining how to obtain trophies and its importance in economic and military affairs, in the wars of the Sassanid period, including between Iranians and Romans, Turks and Arabs, from the perspective of Sassanid kings and troops. The findings of this study indicate that war booty occasionally fills the empty treasury, contributes to the economic prosperity of the country and in some cases leads to tax exemptions and assistance to the poor and needy and in some cases causes chaos and social and military disorder. Thus, the dispute between Jupiter IV and Bahram Choobin was one of the military commanders regarding the spoils of war.

The Qajar kings established local armies in different parts of the country, such as Lorestan, Azerbaijan, Kurdistan, etc., which were under the supervision of tribal chiefs; they used their military and law enforcement power. By acquiring the apparent citizenship of these armies, the Qajars used them in foreign wars and to create security in the areas under their influence. In Lorestan, for example, Delfan, Silakhor, Amrayi and Biranvand armies were formed. Among the local forces, Biranvand Regiment has a special place; According to court and local sources, whenever this tribe was subordinated to the central government, it had a useful function in Lorestan and in foreign wars such as the Herat war during the time of the two Qajar kings. On the other hand, with the disappearance of the influence of the central government, this regiment became disorganized and rebellious. The formation of the Biranvand Regiment played an important role in the degree of citizenship of the chiefs of this tribe against the central Qajar government. The findings of this study indicate that the presence of the head of Biranvand Regiment in creating security in Lorestan and Khuzestan, showed its positive role in the policy of the central government and its disobedience caused insecurity in these areas.
