One of the issues followed by the English as a way to reach their ends was establishing telegraph office and consulate in the Persian Gulf, so that they could follow their purposes in the area. The telegraph office connected Bombay to Masghat, Hengam Island, Qeshm, Bandare -Abbas, Kerman, and finally Tehran. The telegraph office could transmit the news very rapidly, and the British state’s orders were received very soon via it. The British state’s efforts to establish some political centers in order to create some privacy in other countries was a result of British imposition of military power on the different areas of the world specially the Persian Gulf and Iran. England’s consulates were established in Iran’s different cities like Isfahan, Yazd, Kerman, Mashhad, Shiraz, and Bandare- Abbas. Each of these consulates was administered by England’s consulate in Tehran. When necessary, some of these consulates made relationship to London directly. So, British consulates in the Persian Gulf, Boushehr, and Bandare- Abbas were of great importance.
