The presence of aliens and distress caused to the Iranian islands in the Persian Gulf gradually emptied of its inhabitants. Business market and its business is almost closed. Some of its islands turned into a place of exile for political convicts, miscreants and offenders. Kish Island that during the Persian Atabak was the ruler of all islands and even was Atabak home state and persian's treasury was kept in it, with the last position of trade and business of resident merchants, it reached the situation that all of them moved and the misery of poverty and the destruction the island turned into a place with old trees and a few acres of arable land barren and a small population of women and children, the poor and disabled old man and old woman who can not migrate.
