The Democrat Party (Persian: فرقه دموکرات) was a social democratic political party in Qajari Persia, during the constitutional period. It was one of two major parliamentary parties at the time, along with the Moderate Socialists Party.[2] It was largely composed of middle-class intellectuals and stood for the separation of church and state.[3]
