Haft Lang is one of the main tribes of the Bakhtiari people, an Iranian Lur-speaking ethnic group primarily residing in southwestern Iran. Its origins date back to the 13th century, during the early period of the Mongol Ilkhanate, in the Zagros Mountains, where it formed under the pressure of Mongol commanders as a defensive strategy against the increasing fiscal demands imposed by the Mongols in Iran.
