At present, economic globalization and world multi-polarization has become an unstoppable trend of the world. The rise of nation has been an increasing cherished wish among all countries of the world. Iran, which plays an important role in Middle East, urges to gain a great nation power as well. During the Pahlavi Dynasty, Iran strived to develop petroleum trading in order to rise nation power. To make it further, Iran even attempts to obtain nuclear power since Islamic Revolution.Over time, it’s believed that the Middle East area is one of the most insecure place in the world. With the increasing severe issue of ethnic religion, the attention is becoming broader on the development of fragmented situation in Middle East. The geographical surrounding of Iran, which situated in the middle of the Middle East, will affect the process of its rising power significantly, while in turn its rising power will cause major adjustment on the Middle East and even the world.This article, which uses the method combined of the document study, systematic study and historical study, discusses the theory and model of Iran’s rise of nation as well, and gets some major conclusion concerning Iran’s rise of nation. It’s unique of the model of Iran’s raise of nation, differ from other countries which has gained its power or is gaining its power at present. The major approach for Iran to realize the raise of nation is by developing military power or even nuclear power via religion. Iran brought about numerous bonus relying on such special model, for a long period of time, and however, the disadvantages of Iran’s model had become apparent gradually with time went by. As a result, it deteriorated its self-geopolitical environment which is unfavorable to its raise of nation.This passage has multi-analysis over Iran’s rise of nation based new geographical surrounding by using two aspects, in and outside of Middle East, and points out the strategic solutions of Iran’s nation rising. In the first inner Middle East aspect, it’s based primarily on eight countries, in which Turki, Arab and Shiah found the mainstream, combined with the corresponding theories of geopolitics. The different responding of the circumambient countries toward Iran’s nation rising was analyzed to indicate the nation rising’s geographical surrounding. And it leads to the consequence that Syrian and Lebanon which are the main allied countries of Iran, got into a dilemma one after another. While its main competitors Saudi Arabia and Turkey plus its former foes Israel are becoming increasingly aggressive, the geographical surrounding of the nation raise of Iran is worrying. One the second outer Middle East aspect, by studying the strategies concerning Iran made by the group which consists of the United States, Europe, Russia and China, combined with the study of several hot issues such as nuclear crisis of Iran, we can safely draw the conclusion that each great countries hold different attitude toward Iran’s nation rising according to self-interests. The obstruction of the United States, the limited suppression of the Europe, the precaution of Russia and the cautious intervention of China, all those different attitudes make a more complex geographical surrounding of Middle East. Finally, it suggests the tendency of Iran’s nation rising has it bright future, but still need a geopolitical corresponding to the inner and outer aspects. To be more specific, in the inner aspect, Iran needs to unite with Shiite countries, pose importance on the cooperation of Turkic countries and develop relationships actively with the large Arab countries. In the outer aspect, it needs to pursuit reconciliation between Iran and the United States, split up the Europe by using petroleum resource, woo the Russia and develop all-round cooperation with China.The research conclusion of this article is that the general trend of Iran’s raise is very good. The main conclusions are as follows. The influence of western countries toward Iran’s raise of nation deteriorating year after year while the influence of China and Russia is becoming more and more standing out; gradually the advantages of the overall geo-environment are being deprived of and the drawbacks of its nation raise model are becoming increasing apparent as well; the relationship between Iran and Middle East countries and the trend of Iran’s nuclear issue is a touchstone to test the achievements of Iran’s raise of nation.
