The Safavid dynasty was established long before its rise, and its origins are still controversial. However, despite its mysterious origins, it transformed Iran into a powerful and multifaceted state, leaving an indelible mark on this land.
The Safavid era was marked by a combination of traditional elements with new cultural influences. During their reign, the country reached the peak of its power and prosperity, becoming a center of art, literature and architecture. The dynasty influenced subsequent generations and shaped the face of modern Iran, despite internal conflicts and external threats such as the Ottoman and Uzbek invasions. However, some questions remain unanswered.
Why did Ismail I's father single him out from his brothers? Which of the shahs died of drunkenness? Why was Shah Ismail II imprisoned? What connects Safi II Soleyman and Stenka Razin? Why did Muhammad's wife execute his sister? Who opposed the rule of Sultan Hussein? And from whom did the Safavids really descend?
The story of the rise, rise and fall of the Iranian Shahs, which created a unique cultural identity that continues to fascinate today.
