Melalui metode penelitian sejarah dengan langkah-langkahnya yakni heuristik, kritik, interpretasi, dan penyajian berbentuk historiografi, penelitian ini berusaha mengungkap peristiwa-peristiwa penting yang terjadi di Persia dalam rentang waktu kekuasaannya hingga tahun 1857. Hasil riset ini menemukan sejumlah kejadian yang tergolong krusial di masa itu yakni terbunuhnya tokoh reformis Perdana Menteri Amir Kabir karena usahanya dalam memberangus korupsi, meskipun ia sangat berperan dalam menjamin Nashiruddin naik takhta dan reformasi kemiliterannya membuat Qajar berhasil menundukkan pemberontakan Salar (1851) dan kerusuhan Babiyah (1852). Bagaimanapun, akibat intervensi Inggris, Persia juga harus menanggung kehilangan klaimnya atas wilayah Afghanistan, pendudukan Inggris atas Bushehr hingga tahun 1913, dan melepaskan Khorramshahr / Mohammerah yang lalu berdiri sebagai wilayah otonomi independen. Kurun waktu tersebut (1848-1857) relatif memengaruhi corak kebijakan Nashiruddin untuk masa-masa berikutnya yang tetap dipengaruhi isu-isu reformasi internal, gerakan perlawanan rakyat, dan intervensi asing.
