Right now, Iran is seeing its biggest protests in years.

People are unhappy with its leaders for different reasons. For some protestors, it's the cost of living, and in particular the high prices for food and fuel that is the issue.

Others are protesting against the controls that Iran's government places on people – from what people can say about how the country is run, to the clothes they can wear.
