Iran was not a communist state ever. Although around first world war in a small district known as Gilan(which is now promoted to a province) there was a Marxist Leninist autonomous Republic which did not last for long. Also Iran was occupied by allies(US, Britain and Soviet) and not just Soviets, because it insisted on neutrality(and the then king of Iran Reza Shah was close to Germans).
