Khosrow Shirin (Persian: خسروشيرين, also Romanized as Khosrow Shīrīn; also known as Kūh-i-Khusru and Shirin)[1] is a village in Khosrow Shirin Rural District, formerly in the Central District of Eqlid County, Fars Province, Iran. At the 2006 census, its population was 1,835, in 503 families.[2] Ensuing years of protest by the people living in Khosrow Shirin, the village went through a process of secession from Eqlid county. The popular secessionist efforts on the part of people culminated in the presidential order by Mahmoud Ahmadinejad in 2005-2006 which warranted the separation from Eqlid County and accession to Abadeh County. Since then, the village and its surrounding region are officially considered a territorial section of Abadeh County.
