the Iranian military attacked a crowd of protesters, killing ~88 and injuring between 205-8,000. The violence increased the unrest, leading to a general strike and the Shah fleeing the country in January 1979.
The massacre, known as Black Friday, began when thousands of protesters gathered in Tehran's Jaleh Square for a religious demonstration, unaware that the government had declared martial law a day earlier due to widespread political unrest.
Some sources estimate that 4,000 people were shot down by tanks, guns, and military helicopters. The deaths were described as the pivotal event in the Iranian Revolution that ended any "hope for compromise" between the protest movement and regime of Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi.
The massacre led to widespread protests, and a general strike in October shut down the petroleum industry that was essential to the administration's survival. The Shah fled Iran in January 1979, clearing the way for the Iranian Revolution, led by Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini.

Pathfinder 2 really benefits from a good vtt. Foundry automates all the little +1s and helps it flow much smoother. Once your in the swing of it though I find it does make combat much more dynamic. In general, unless your character has some way to mitigate the multiple attack penalty you'll want to attack only once and also do something else like flank or intimidate. The bonuses you get from that kind of thing are deceptively more useful than you might expect coming from 5e because of the degrees of success mechanic. Every +1 is not just five percent more chance to hit but also to crit. Also there are alternatives rules that let every ancestry choose their stat boosts like a human does.
