That's a stupid conclusion. what about Safarian or taherian who were just some puppets. or what about khwarazmshahi kings who invited mongols to invade to Iran or what about sasanids like their last kings who lost their whole territory to arabs, ...
The most aweful regime in whole history of that region are the mullah dynasty, aka the islamic republic. Even a person with an IQ of 0 can understand it.
Islamic republic is following the turkic qajari tradition instead that of the Iranic zand dynasty. Lets see what outsiders (British and american diplomats) wrote about The Iranian Zand dynasty and the Turkic Qajars and how they compared them to each other. They were the witnesses.

I will not travel through the account of a series of most heroic and
unfortunate attempts made by the king to reestablish his fortunes, but
hasten to relieve my mind from the sorrow and regret which, even after this
length of time p, it feels for the misfortunes of Lutf Aly khan.
. . .
The remaining days of this great prince were few and sad; but Persia,
even now, speaks of his heroic actions with pride; and the inhabitants of the
southern part of the empire retain an affectionate and respectful regard for
his memory and virtues".35
The Ending and Aftermath of Zand Rule in Iran
It was a routine matter that pretenders to the throne, whether in Iran or in
Europe, would be dealt with summarily if caught and often put to the sword,
in those times, and in many place even today.
Karim Khan Zand sought to
restore the pluralism, and multicultural, multi-religious and multi-ethnic
character of Iran since ancient times. Thus he would honor his enemies or
pardon them and give clemency, including the Qajar tribe, who being
descended form the Mongols and Tartars, at that time could not speak
Persian. Instead of killing his worst enemy, Agha Mohammad Khan Qajar
(a.k.a. Kajar), chief the Qajar tribe, he treated him as a long-time guest at
his court. Upon the death of Karim Khan, he escaped, collected his Qajar
tribal backers to gain the throne. After sixteen years of such warfare, when a
young Zand prince, Loft Aly Khan, was in power, through treachery he
overcame Loft Aly Khan, blinded him, dismembered then tortured him to
death, had his wife raped and massacred the Zands at court in Shiraz. The
Qajars had been exiled for sixty years to the Syrian desert by the Tartar chief
Tamerlane on account of extreme savagery. To-day, however, descendants
of the Qajars are integrated into the Iranian population, and after over ten
generations of marriage have become culturally as well as morally and in
appearance largely indistinguishable from the rest of the population.
Clements R. Markham, British historian, 1874 : "The Zand dynasty produced
two great and worthy scions . . . The Kajars, raised to power by the hideous
atrocities of that monster Agha Mohammad, have supplanted their rivals.”36
Under the Zands the Islamic clergy had little or no role in government, and
their influence had been reduced by having to work for a living, like the rest
of society. The clergy had come into Iran from Arab countries under the
Safavid dynasty. The Islamic clergy, in mounting the Islamic revolution of
1979, sought to return to their power and privilege under the Qajar (Kajar)
dynasty which followed the Zands. F
rom their point of view their present
rule in Iran is, in large measure, a restoration and continuation of their status
in the Qajar period, when their position and power increased due to once
again being patronized by the state. In what may best be characterized as
an unholy alliance, the Qajars and the Islamic clergy vied together to turn
the country to ruin.
Justice Douglas, on the Aftermath of the Zand Dynasty: "In the eighteenth
century [ca. 1795] disaster struck Persia, a disaster that has been a crippling
force even to this day. At that time an alien Turkish tribe, who could not
speak the language, seized control of the country . . . They established the
Kajar dynasty, which laid a curse on the land. They ruled and exploited the
people; but they did not govern . . . Thus government became a ferocious,
devouring force. It lived on the people. It squeezed every copper from them.
The feudalism that had been the strength of Persia became the means for
bleeding it white . . . Justice was for sale, power was used to exact blackmail.
The army and the police were weakened and corrupted. Decay took hold in the
moral fiber. The religious ideas that had supplied the generating force
behind Persia’s great dynasties were discarded.
Not all of the country was despoiled. The Kajar dynasty reached as far
into the hinterland as it could, but the fastness of the mountains held
treasures it could not reach. These treasures were the main tribes: the
Kurds, the Lursq, the Bakhtiaris, and the Ghashghais. They remained
independent and largely untouched. Their power in fact grew under the
Kajars, for peasants flocked to their dependencies for shelter from the long,
oppressive hand of the central government.
