From 1960 to 1963 Mohammad Reza carried out a national development program called the White Revolution, which expanded transportation networks, fostered dam and irrigation projects, helped eradicate disease, boosted literacy, and encouraged industrial growth and land reform. In subsequent decades, Iranian personal income skyrocketed and oil revenue funded industrial development projects.
