چکیده:
this article examines the role of iranian ministers and in promoting and preserving the idea of iranshahr during the ilkhanate period. the establishment of the mongol ilkhanate within territories roughly corresponding to those of the sasanian empire provided an opportunity for the revival of iran's name, identity, and culture. with the spread of iranian bureaucracy in the mongol court, iranian viziers and administrators found a valuable chance to revive iranian cultural traditions. by reviving and emphasizing the use of the name "iran" and addressing the ilkhans with titles such as "shahanshah" (king of kings) and "padishah-e iran (king of iran), they reconnected with their historical and cultural past, revitalizing the iranshahri idea. this idea emphasized principles such as territorial unity, the interconnection of religion and politics, the establishment of order and security, and a focus on justice. iranian ministers in the ilkhanate court encouraged the rulers to uphold justice, maintain social order, and strive for geographical cohesion, thereby preserving iranian identity in a new framework. prominent iranian viziers such as khwaja rashid al-din fazlullah and ‘ata-malik juvayni played a crucial role in safeguarding elements of the iranshahri thought through historical writings, efforts in iran's reconstruction, and defending the land against external threats

The Concept of Iranshahr in the Ilkhanid Era: The Role of Iranian Ministers and Officials 1 Fatemeh Sadat Hosseini Tabar PhD student in History and Civilization of Islamic Nations, Science and Research Branch, Islamic Azad University, Tehran, Iran.
Great Iranian ministers such as Khwaja Rashid al-Din Fazlullah and Atamalek Juvayni played an important role in preserving the elements of the concept of Iranshahr through the authorship of historical works, continuous activity in the development and prosperity of Iran, and efforts to protect this land from the harm of enemies.
The third category includes research related to the bureaucracy of the Ilkhanid era that is useful for this study, such as: the book "The Rules of Governance in the Ministry of Rashid al-Din Fazlullah Hamadani" written by Hashem Rajabzadeh; the book "History of the Mongols and the Ilkhanid Government in Iran" by Shirin Bayani; and the article "The Juvayni Family in the Ilkhanid Apparatus" by Davoud Esfahanian.
In the works of Rashid al-Din Fazlullah Hamadani, such as 'Jami' al-Tawarikh', which is one of the most important historical works of the Ilkhanid era, attention is paid to the history of Iran and the effort to preserve Iranian identity during the Mongol rule, and Khwaja Rashid's perspective in this work is a synthesis of Iranshahr and Islamic viewpoints.
However, from the time of Rashid al-Din Fadlallah Hamadani, the word "Iran" also specifically and repeatedly entered official and historical texts and gradually replaced terms such as "Ajam" or "Mamalik al-Islam," which in itself is a sign of the strengthening of the Iranian territorial identity in the Ilkhanid era.
