In October 2010, Taleqan District was separated from Savojbolagh County, Tehran province, in the establishment of Taleqan County, which was divided into two districts of two rural districts each, with Taleqan as its capital and only city.[4]
At the 2016 National Census, the population was 16,815, in 6,354 households,[2] by which time the county had been transferred to the newly established Alborz province.[6]
The area is known for its mild, sunny summers and cold winters. Nasser al-Din Shah Qajar is quoted as saying of Taleqan weather: Har che dar Tehran harf ast, dar inja barf ast (As much as there is politics in Tehran, there is snow here).[7]
The structure of Taleqan County's administrative divisions is shown in the following table. The latest census shows two districts, four rural districts, and one city.[2]
In recent years,[when?] the construction of Taleqan dam and installation of its hydroelectric project on Shahrood (River) (a right-hand tributary of the Sefīd-Rūd) has added new dimensions to the region's touristic attractions and infrastructure development although it is also becoming a serious issue for the environment.[citation needed]
Etymologyedit
Some folk etymology says that the name Taleqan means "separators" in Persian, but Dehkhoda says that: Taleqan root is Talcan from talc because of existence of talc mine there. ٍTalc in English is a loan word from Arabic talq, from Persian talk "talc". Talc
