Dobiran
Dobiran (Persian: دبيران) (in local dialect: Dobran) is a city in the Central District of Zarrin Dasht County, Fars province, Iran, serving as the administrative center for Dobiran Rural District. The city is located 270 km from Shiraz, at the intersection of the borders of Darab, Fasa, Jahrom, and Lar counties.
At the time of the 2006 National Census, the city's population was 9,897 in 2,119 households. The following census in 2011 counted 12,682 people in 3,188 households. The 2016 census measured the population of the city as 13,809 people in 3,685 households.
According to the 2016 census, the majority of the population are Arabic speakers and Persians (Arabs: Jabareh tribe, Shir tribe) and (Persians: Darreh Shuri and Lari).
The initial core of the formation of Dobiran city dates back to the beginning of the first decade of the 1300s Solar Hijri (1920s), when some nomadic tribal families chose to settle and become sedentary in the Dobran plain, building the first houses in the current location of Dobiran city. Before the formation of Dobran village, Shah Alamdar was the most important settlement in the region. Some nomadic people settled near Imamzadeh Shah Alamdar, 8 km south of current Dobiran, at the foot of Namak Mountain.
The etymology of Dobran varies. Some believe the rich pastures and favorable climate in the plain and surrounding slopes caused livestock to lamb and be sheared twice a year, hence "Dobran." Another narrative attributes it to the seasonal river dividing the area into two sides ("do bar"). Others link it to the Dobran qanat predating the settlement.
The name Dobiran is recent. In July 2005, per Cabinet approval, Dobran village became a city named Dobiran. Earlier, in 1992, the Cabinet renamed Dasht-e Khak Rural District, centered on Dobran, to Dobiran Rural District.
The city is at 28°24' N latitude and 54°11' E longitude, at an elevation of 1,170 meters above sea level.
Due to low latitude, subtropical high pressure, and distance from moisture sources, it has a hot, semi-arid climate with average annual rainfall not exceeding 200 mm.
