Why 1979? Why not 1991 ( Gulf War ) or 2003, which is also year of Goat. This is because the rise of petroleum price few years ago like what happen in 1973.
We know the start of Spring on 4th of February on both 1979 and 2015 and first day of Lunar Chinese New Year on 19 February 2015.
However our comparison start from 1 January respectively rather than 4 February or first day of Lunar Chinese New Year as it still comply with 12 year cycle of comparison.

1979: The Shah left Iran for exile on January 16, 1979, as the last Persian monarch, leaving his duties to a regency council and an opposition-based prime minister. Ayatollah Khomeini was invited back to Iran by the government, and returned to Tehran to a greeting by several million Iranians. The royal reign collapsed shortly after on February 11 when guerrillas and rebel troops overwhelmed troops loyal to the Shah in armed street fighting, bringing Khomeini to official power.

羊年发生什么事
这是比较1979年和2015年发生的事。
为什么是比较1979年?而不是也是羊年的1991年(海湾战争)或2003年。这是因为这几年石油价格大起像1973年之后发生的相同。 我们也知道每年立春从二月4日开始和2015年农历初一在2015年2月19日。 但是我们比较从1月1日开始,而不是2月4日或农历初一开始,但是它仍然符合范蠡陶朱公12年的周期论。
