Sattar Khan (1868 - November 9, 1914) was born in the north-west Iranian city of Tabriz. He was a main figure of the Iranian Constitutional Revolution, leading people from Azarbaijan, Gilan, and Bakhtiari to Tehran in order to protest the abolishment of the constitution by the king, Mohammad Ali Shah Qajar. As a result of these efforts, the constitution was restored, and Mohammad Ali deposed. Upon his return to Tabriz, Khan was treated as a national hero.
