Iran's economy is deteriorating rapidly with fuel shortages, extreme inflation, and a misery index exceeding 100 in over 60 percent of provinces. A misery index above 100 means the combined rates of unemployment, inflation, and lending rates have become economically destabilizing.
When misery indices hit that level across most of a country, political instability typically follows. People can't afford basic goods, fuel is scarce, and jobs are scarce. Historically, that's when regimes face serious pressure from their own population. The combination of war (regional conflicts), international sanctions, and internal economic collapse creates a genuine systemic crisis, not just a bad quarter.
