The Two Societies (Persian: جامعتین, Jāme'atein)[1] is the nickname given to the coalition of two influential[2] Iranian principlist clerical religious–political groups, Combatant Clergy Association of Tehran and Society of Seminary Teachers of Qom.[1]
The Two Societies declared a shared electoral list for 2006 Iranian Assembly of Experts election and won 69 seats out of 86. In 2016 elections, the two societies did not reach a coalition and issued different lists, eventually winning 64≈66 seats out of 88.[3]
They also dominate Guardian Council.[2]
