From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Jungle Party (Persian: حزب جنگل, romanized: Ḥezb-e Jangal; also translated Forest Party)[4] was a secessionist[6] party active in northern Iran during 1940s. The party was founded by armed rebels[7] and some of Mirza Kuchik Khan's old associates[1] who tried to revive the Persian Socialist Soviet Republic created in 1921[2] and used its red flag as a symbol.[8] It allied with the Iran Party, Tudeh Party of Iran, Democratic Party of Iranian Kurdistan and Azerbaijani Democratic Party in 1946.[9]
