Here's those footnotes I promised at 00:58
00:37 Aq Qoyunlu means White Sheep Turkoman.
00:43 The last truly Persian dynasty to rule Iran was the Sasanians.
01:14 The daughter of Alexander is titled "some Georgian girl!" in the family tree because her real name is unknown.
01:22 That Safavi Order was founded by Ismail's ancestor, the Kurdish mystic Safi-ad-din Ardabili.
01:28 Please note that Pineapple Pizza wouldn't be invented until 1962!
01:38 Qizilbash (sometimes spelled Kizilbash) is a popular last name in many Middle Eastern and Central Asian Countries.
02:02 Quick correction, Haydar smokes a hookah in this clip, however those wouldn't be introduced to the region until a century later.
02:10 Haydar was rading the territories to train his troops. And his excuse for rading was that the territory was "infidel land", AKA, Christian lands, nobody bought it though!
02:16 The Shirvanshah where a vassal of the Aq Qoyunlu.
02:37 While Husayn Beg was his teacher, the one who was taking care of young Ismail was the Ruler of the Kar-Kiya (the dynasty that ruled the city of Gilan) named Soltan-Ali Mirza.
02:49 The song that's playing is Rude Buster by Toby Fox from the game Deltarune. Now, you might be asking, why is this playing in a Persian video? And to that I have to say, It's my video, I do what I want, shut up!
02:49 When Ismail came out hiding, was actually 12, but he did all the cool battle stuff at 14, so I only mention him being 14 in the video.
03:15 The battle between Ismail and Yasar was fought near the Azerbaijani town of Cabanı.
03:41 The Shirvanshah family would continue to govern Baku until the Reign of Ismail’s son Tahmasp 20 years later.
04:18 I don't know why Ismail need the Georgians to fight the Ottomans, and I have no idea how the Georgian Kingdoms's campaign went.
04:43 The general's name was Karachagay khan.
07:16 The song that playing is called Salām-e Shāh the old national anthem of Iran before the Islamic Republic.
07:47 Only after finishing this video did I find out that Alvand didn't die in battle, instead he was exiled after his defeat, probably to the Ottomans.
08:45 The Aq Qoyunlu warlord's name was Kiya Husayn II.
08:59 Ismail actually had 2 wives, Tajlu Khanum was his main and most loved wive, the other one was probably just a political marriage so didn't even bother mentioning her.
08:59 Ismail was about 17 when he married Tajlu, and Tajlu was about 19, so they where both pretty young.
08:59 Tajlu wasn't some helpless delicate princess, she was actually a strong sportswoman, being a capable fencer and wrestler.
09:04 Tahmasp was born on the 22nd of February, 1514.
09:37 I accidentally said Kurdistan twice, woops! Sorry to anyone from Khuzestan that might be watching!
10:46 The song that's playing is called Ey Iran, a Iranian patriotic song, this specific version is from 1944. There's an instrument version of this song in the video intro.
11:21 Mirza actually had a brother that escaped with him, but he didn't survive the journey to Tabriz
11:45 The army troubles Shaybani was having was due to military defeats he suffered against some Afghans (Hazaras to be specific), in which he lost most of his calvary.
11:53 Something I should have mentioned: when Ismail conquered Herat and it's surroundings, that included Mashhad and Sarakhs. Mashhad, is most notable as that is the second most populous city in Iran.
12:34 It was actually Shaybani's wife, Moghul Khanum, who convinced Shaybani to attack the retreating Ismail. After all of Shaybani's emirs told him to stay inside Merv, she yelled out, "And you are afraid of the Qizilbash! If you are afraid, I will take the troops myself and lead them. Now is the right moment, there will be no such moment again." After she said that, all of Shaybani's emirs quickly turned into yes-men and agreed to the attack.
13:20 Unlike in my depiction, Ismail didn't keep Shaybani's skull cup forever, he would eventually send it to Babur as a goodwill gesture as Babur aways had beef with Shaybani.
14:15 Najm-e Sani was Vicegerent to replace Najm Zargar, who had died a little while back.
14:27Najm-e Sani massaquered Qarshi because he thought it was the Uzbek's capital and wanted to kill the Uzbek state by striking at it's heart.
14:54 For all you smooth brains that haven't figured it out by now, Babur is the founder of the Mughal Empire of India.
16:18 The song that playing is a Ottoman military march called Osmaniye Marşı
16:27 lol
17:07 The Şahkulu rebellion was a Shia Qizilbash rebellion lead by a man named Şahkulu. In the rebellion, the Shias sacked the Ottoman treasury. The rebellion ended after the leader Şahkulu was killed in battle, and the revolt lost steam.
17:22 Selim overthrew Bayezid because Bayezid had chosen Selim's older brother Ahmet to be his heir. After Selim took the throne, he had Ahmet strangled to death...nice...
17:55 Selim's Shia massaquere was the largest of it's kind in the Ottoman Empire until the 19th century.
18:06 the song that's playing is an Ottoman military march called Ceddin Deden, but you probably already knew that since this song is so popular.
18:39When I say cut to pieces, I really do mean cut to pieces!!
20:46 After the battle Selim said this about Ismail "Always drunk to the point of losing his mind and totally neglectful of the affairs of the state". Ouch!
21:13Selim I was actually one of the best and most important Ottoman Sultans. Despite only ruling for 8 years, he doubled the Empire's territories, not just because of his conquest of the East Safavid territories, but also he was the Ottoman Sultan that conquered Egypt. After which, now possessing Mecca, Madina and Jerusalem, he proclaimed himself to be the Caliph.
21:37 So about Ismail’s alcoholism. You probably noticed through the video that his aways drinking. He was an alcoholic through most of this life, but after the Battle of Chaldiran, his alcoholism got really bad.
22:26 I have no idea what Ismail died of! I looked at over all my sources and none of them tell, just that he died.
23:25Sadegh Hedayat was an Iranian author who wrote many books, the most famous being The Blind Owl (1937), one of, if not the most influential works of literature in modern Iranian history. You can think of it as beings similar to the influence of The Great Gatsby in American literature. Unfortunately, most of his works have been heavily censored or banned by the modern Iranian dictatorship, with the only way for your average Iranian to experience his work being through second-hand copies.
23:41 I may or may not do a video about Nader Shah and the Naderian Wars. We'll see...
23:34This outro song is called Safavid Drip by Bub Beats he made especially for this video. Go check out his awesome channel th-cam.com/channels/3pOav1RcpJhfy6fhbSEePw.html

Shah İsmail was undefeated warrior, no one could beat him one on one. He won 18 fights out of 19. Only one lose was against Ottoman empire, cuz they had guns, but even on that fight on Chaldran 1514, he fought with the strongest warrior of Ottoman empire Turali Bek Malkochoglu, and killed him. He also was an amazing poet. Rest in peace our Shah. We love You!
Shah Ismail could have possibly be as great as peoples as Cyrus the Great, Timur the Great and Alexander the Great because he won many battles and destroyed many Empire in is time like those 3 and he was outnumbered 3 to 1 most of the time and killed is rivals in the battle IN BATTLE WITH SWORD LIKE REAL WARRIOR and didn’t need cannons is rivals like Muhammad Shaybani Khan , Farrukh Yassar etc etc made Safavid Iran one of the most powerful empire in the world in only 12 to 13 years 15 or more battle was won by Shah Ismail of Persia more than 90 % of ruler and military commanders in history and he was outnumbered all the time 2 to 1 or 3 to 1 but still completely destroyed many states Timurid Empire , Aq Qoyunlu, Afrasiyab dynasty , Shaybanid Empire and others battle like Battle of Jabani (1500)Battle of Sharir (1501)Siege of Tabriz (1501)Battle of Sharur (1501)Battle of Hamadan (1503)Battle of Tabriz (1503)Battle of Nakhchivan Safavid Safavid conquest of Mazandaran (1504)Safavid conquest of Gorgan (1504)Safavid conquest of Yazd (1504)Battle of Najaf (1507)Battle of Karbala (1507)Battle of Van (1508)Battle of Erzurum (1508)Battle of Baghdad (1509)Battle of Merv (1510) and others but after the Battle of Chaldiran his aura of invincibility shattered he was never the same he could have become one of the best military commanders in history but he was never the same after is first and only lost he also made both the kingdoms of Kartli as well as Kakheti his vassals and by the way Shah Ismail won more battle than any Ottoman ruler in history
Shah Ismail's favorite wife was a Persian woman named Behruzeh Khanum, who was captured by the Ottomans in the Battle of Chaldiran. Her captivity caused the isolation and death of Shah Ismail, because Shah Ismail was in love with her.
Shah Ismail's marriage with Tajlu Khanum was for politics, Tajlu was Turkman from her father's side and a mix of Iranians and Caucasians from her mother's side. Her mother or grandmother was a Shirvanshah princess. Some sources say that she was her mother and some say that she was her grandmother.
In Iran we have Turk Pars Kurds and other ethnic groups. Shah Ismail was a Turk of Iran
the fucks a Parsler?

Shah Ismail's maternal grandmother was a Pontic princess and her mother was Georgian, not Greek. Her Pontic father, who himself was a mix with the Slavs, married a Georgian princess, not a Greek woman.
Despina was half Georgian. Her mother was a Georgian princess.
And 2 of Shah Ismail's wives were Persian women and 1 of them was a Turkman woman.

So what?
Yet he was not even iranian😂 but who cares, back then people claimed to be kings of countries they didn't even belong to, all they had to do was simply conquer it and and claim it then u can do whatever u wanted, had any one dared to oppose ur claims, he was dead.
Very Good Video ❤❤❤ As an Iranian, I believe that you did this video almost impecibly and fantasticly. You covered nearly every aspect of Shah Ismail's life and the showcased the Start of the safavid era in a fun and entertaining way. You deserve more Subscribers for the amount of effort you put into these videos. Even most of your pronunciation of words were somewhat correct and I appreciate that you took the time to Research about our History. As we Say in Tabriz, çox gözəl 👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️😘😘😘
Are the iranians usually proud of the pre islamic kingdoms/empires like sassanid, achaemenid or parthian like we latins are of pre christian rome?
@@mr.mystery9338 Good Question! Of Course we are. It is part of our Ancient History and Our Legacy as a People. Some of the most Iconic Iranian Sites were built during that time e.g. Persepolis.
he was a literal cannibal and not even iranian. If anything he should be denounced, before the mania he caused with mass conversion to shiism, Persians were leaders in science. Now they're like christians 0.1, a lot convert to christianity afer going to the US.
@@ranro7371 christians have always been leaders in science and philosophy. Get your facts straight.
@@mr.mystery9338 البته،، ما به هخامنشیان،، اشکانیان، ساسانیان افتخار میکنیم و با ورود اسلام که به زور شمشیر بود مخالف هستیم،، ایرانیان عمدتا مذهبی نیستند و چیزی که پروپاگاندای حکومت نشان میدهد واقعیت ندارد صفویان احیا کننده ایران باستان بودند زیر لوای شیعه،، چون دشمن سرسختی مثل امپراتوری عثمانی هم مرز ایران بود و چاره ایی جز این نبود
I love Shah Ismail, a truly great Shah for Iranians at the time. He resurrected a unified Iran, not seen since the native Persian dynasties during the Iranian-Intermezzo period in the post Islamic era. This was a beautiful video. Thanks for sharing.
You explain in a very clear way awesome stuff!
As a Persian Bahraini, I love Shah Ismail
Salam, koka (brother), from Bushehr Province.
Wow! first video I've watched from this TH-cam channel but I already love these videos! Cool to learn about a region I don't really know the history of. Great Job!
Dude what a great video. You really took the time to read deeply into the 14 and 1500s iranian history for this. Your commentary and detail you put in is great. Thank you for exploring my peoples history and culture. 💗
Ismail was definitely one of the most fascinating figures of the early modern world, I knew he was based, but not the fact that he conquered his Empire at the mere age of 14! You did an excellent job narrating his deeds, and I was was cheering for him all the way through (except for his epik trolling moments, must have learned those from Shah Khosrow I) and actually expected him to beat Selim... ah, what a plot twist, what a shame. I feel really bad for Ismail. Great video overall, would you do more videos on Safavid history?
I plan to make a Nader Shah video later this year. I might talk more about the Safavids in the future, we'll see
@@saltyhistorian2261 Do video about King Shapur I the real nightmare of Roman Empire the blows that Shapur inflicted upon the Roman army were indeed catastrophic; up to one third of Rome’s professional army (including officers) numbering around 150,000 troops, had been simply eliminated in that time that CRAZY number for 1800 years ago and he captured one of Roman king ALIVE Valerian’s defeat and capture is among the most humiliating losses in military history so King Shapur victory are way more impressive than Hannibal one more thing according to historians say King Shapur could have conquered the whole of Asia had they not been overjoyed at their excessive spoils most likely, Shapur’s strategy was to simply consolidate his empire’s position rather than attempt a vast territorial expansion at Roman expense very similar to Nader Shah when he made the Ottoman look like joke so Shapur never wanted to conquered Roman territory he cloud have conquered big part of Asia according to historians
Yo thanks for this video I've gotta know about this empire for an ap world test 🙏🙏🙏 this vid was very informative and fun
Great video 😂❤
Thanks for the great video! Would be aweosme if you made one about the Sassanids.

5:35 just a little mistake , shia don't have their own Quran, it's the same book , but the Interpretation of the Quran is different.
Also Ismail didn't proclaim himself to be the 12 imam cause the 12 imam name is Mohammed bin Al-Hassan not Ismail , but maybe some of qizilbash proclaimed him as mahdi.
Great video and keep the good work 👏
Thanks man! :) Yeah I didn't know about the Quran until after I finished the video, my bad!
@@saltyhistorian2261Ismail proclaimed to be a descendant of the prophet mohamed
@@zeldaaachen7200 In his letter to Selim he wrote :
Today I have come to the world as a Master. Know truly that I am Haydar's son. I am Fereydun, Khosrow, Jamshid, and Zahak. I am Zal's son (Rostam) and Alexander.
this is to increase his prestige not for real fact@@ramtin5152
As a Turkish Qizilbash we still chant his poems in Azerbaijani Turkish in Cem ceremonies and my grandma still uses the name of 'Yavuz' Sultan Selim as an insult. Shah Ismail is the founder of Alevi subsect. And the keepers of our cultural and religious heritage, the 'Dede's (some sorta clergyman) have direct ancestry from Ardabili Turkoman cultists.
I would like to ask a question. Why do the shier hate Ismail for massacaring them in his empire when Ismail massacred Sunni's in his. This is a genuine question, I don't mean to mock you.
@@m.aryaanamiri2755 you meant İsmail i guess, i personally dont hate Sultan Selim im completely neutral as a history entushianist. But there is a difference between the actions of Ottomans and Safavids, Ottomans were much more violent in that time and the massacres have continued even centuries after the battle of Chalderan, Alevi population were forced to isolate and treated in a similar way like jewish ppl in Europe. This even continued in modern republic, you can search about the Marash massacre, Sivas and Çorum incidents. And i honestly dont think my grandpma knows sunnis once lived in Iran and got killed centuries ago, her dislike of Sultan Selim is nothing more than generational trauma.
@@ismettuptuk4037 oh yea sorry I meant hate Selim.And thank you for the reply,especially in a non bias sense.once again thanks from Pakistan.
@@m.aryaanamiri2755 Man i guess i also wrote İsmail instead of Selim 😅
Can i ask you a question.
Enjoyed your video. Entertaining & Informative.
This Chanel is underrated
Ngl bro when i first saw the thumbnail i thought it was gonna be a dude explaining history with a broken mic but to my surprise this Video is actually Very Good. This is some "I was looking for iron but i found gold" moment.
15:35 this poem is actually Azerbaijani not Persian, it's just written in the Perso-Arabic script.
Yes, exactly this dude doesn't know nothing and spreads false information
Super creative way to articulate history. Nice job!
This is by far the best video I have ever encountered on TH-cam. ❤❤❤ Just Subbed ❤❤❤
Shah Ismael is the reunifier of Iran. What a legend!
He managed to finally get all of Iran and most of the E-stans under our control again in 1501.
Finally, a good reccomendation by TH-cam, i can't belive it took me so long to find this channel
Keep up the Content as always ❤❤❤
One of the VERY FEW good videos I can find about the Safavids on TH-cam. I hope you cover other Safavid shahs!
Thanks :)
I do intend on making more Iranian history videos, I'm planning a Nader Shah video already, expect it sometime later this year.
Thank You
Thanks man , every body definition of Iran❤
Wow, i rrally love your narration. I am a great fan of Persia and hearing the biography of Ismail really make me happy 🎉
Great video learned alot

@Salty Historian @Salty Historian bro I from iran shah ismail and his ancestors were also all shia Muslim.
But there is thing in theology of shia islam that you can hidden your religious identity which call "taqiyah" I hope spell will be correct.
When it's dangerous for you to show or express your real belif and religion.
And some people who claim that shah ismail safavid make Iran shia.
Even there are a lot of sources from sunni book that Iran become majority shia Muslim country from 13th century after mongol empire divided and the dynasty comes bigger than safavid dynasty knows ilkhatean dynasty .
"King uljatu" of ilkhatean dynasty become shia Muslim (it's long story why and how he convert but for short he make compitition between every sect of Islam and he convinced by Allama halıy who was shia scholar from Iraq and the reason behind this compitition was so long to explain ) and declared the official religion of country (iran) is Twelver shia islam.
But after attack of tamurid empire who kill and massacre persian people.
So people has afraid and do TAQIYAH hidden their religion (shia islam) and after safavid people again freely to show their religious beliefs and don't a afraid to do TAQIYAH.
In your video you said that he claim alid or twelve imam.
It interesting topic to discuss is that in shia theology and we shia belive that there are twelve imam and after that some follow the scholar and some follow person known as syed/per/murshad.
And qızılbash and all other shia follow him as religious leader after twelve imam,
As he successor of twelve imam not as twelve imam
It's like pop in Christianity who's not claim jeuse but every Christian/or/ follower of jeuse who should follow pop as religious leader.
Even our successor of twelve imam of now is imam khomani and after his death syed also khameni is our religious leader as successor of twelve imam but it's doesn't mean that we claim him as twelve imam.
And some people who claim that shah ismail safavid make Iran shia, it's half wrong and half right .
First of all safavid was not ruling Iran only,
Safavid also rule kürdistan which is still sunni were under safavid for 240 years
safavid also rule sistan and boluchastan of Iran and modern day pakistan which is still sunni even both side were under safavid for 240 years,
Safavid also rule Afghanistan which still sunni were under safavid for 240 years,
Safavid also rule Turkmenistan which still sunni which were under safavid for 240 years.
Safavid also rule some province and city of Uzbekistan such as samarqand and bukhara which is still sunni were under safavid for 240 years.
Safavid also rule persian gulf countries but still they are sunni which were under safavid rule for 240 years,
they claim Arabian gulf/ only gulf but 100 of historical proof that it persian gulf
Safavid also rule the north part of Iraq which is still sunni area which were under safavid for 240 years,
Safavid also rule armenia which is still Christianity country which were under safavid for 240 years,
Safavid also rule Georgia which is still Christianity country were under safavid for 240 years.
If safavid forcely convert shia then why all of this seven (7) countries under safavid are sunni even after safavid rule for 240?
Why they are not convert to shia if shah ismail was force to converting shia or die?
It mean that he didn't did sunni but he margate them
People Persia (iran) and azeribjan were 70% already shia but under TAQIYAH now after safavid 30% of sünni who were live in central forcely migrated to board area to for sure that there is not threat of rebail in centre country by sunni when fighting with neighbor othaman and Uzbek on border.
Second reason of force migration
He immragiate a lot of sunni from centre of country is to make human shield of sunni against sunni.
If Uzbek attack Iranian sunni (modern day known as afghan and tajik) was defensiing country and both sunni kill each other.
In result automatically shia population in country increase as capmare to sunni
And even if othaman attack sunni kürd were defensiing country in result sunni kill sunni and automatically shia population increase as capare in country as campare to sunni .
And after external are of safavid east afghan separate from Iran
in result central area was shia (modern day iran) And external was imagrated sünni (modern day Afghanistan).
iran become 90% shia country after this imagrated sunni from external area of country separated not at time of shah ismail.
On time of shah ismail 70% were but now 90% due to sunni area has separated after nadir shah die.
Even othaman do that too shia kill shia.
Let me give you example janseries were also shia Muslim and have sufi belif same as safavid belif.
And every time othaman attack safavid they use most shia Muslim (alvi) as possible as they can to decrease shia population in anatolia (modern day Türkiyə/turkey) .
Othaman use scholar for propaganda against shia Muslim.
Othaman tell in Friday pray to people shia are kafir (means disbelievers to islam) and aalso says that hundred thousand of sunni are in terrible condition under safavid.
Even othaman claim that two hundred ninteen thousand (219,000) sunni is kill by safavid but the reality is that the total population of country was approximately between 170-180 thousand due to different source to accurate but according to all of these sources min 170 thousand and mix 180 thousand .
Now how can shah ismail kill 219,000 sunni peopel of his country when all population of country is 170 to 180 thousand which is written by othaman sultan to get the support of religious scholar.
It's unlogical that shah ismail kill 219,000 from 180,000 if consider miximam population.
Even othaman historian write that shah ismail kill 20,000 sunni after siege of tabriz even if you research you will get that tabriz total thousand was 20 thousand population when he siege the tabriz.
Did he will 20,000 from 20,000?
So who running the city then the ghost?
If shah ismail really force people to convert then the tabriz left in hand of othaman many times why they don't reconvert them into sunni Islam.
I not gonna defense him but not label him for thing that he don't do .
I wish he forcely convert but he didn't.
If he did now 7 more countries shia Muslim majority country would be but he didn't not that much which is claim by Social media and othaman historian which unlogical to kill 219 from 180.
There are more than 300 books in perisan and Turkish on conflict between safavid and othaman in these all this are metioned in detail .
I know you don't not perisan and Turkish so write in summary for that may it may could help you in your research and help you for your more or nexts video .
Thanks for your efforts you do.
Keep going on and never stop your work if you are unmotivated too.

And even if othaman attack sunni kürd were defensiing country in result sunni kill sunni and automatically shia population increase as capare in country as campare to sunni .
And after external are of safavid east afghan separate from Iran
in result central area was shia (modern day iran) And external was imagrated sünni (modern day Afghanistan).
iran become 90% shia country after this imagrated sunni from external area of country separated not at time of shah ismail.
On time of shah ismail 70% were but now 90% due to sunni area has separated after nadir shah die.
Even othaman do that too shia kill shia.
Let me give you example janseries were also shia Muslim and have sufi belif same as safavid belif.
And every time othaman attack safavid they use most shia Muslim (alvi) as possible as they can to decrease shia population in anatolia (modern day Türkiyə/turkey) .
Othaman use scholar for propaganda against shia Muslim.
Othaman tell in Friday pray to people shia are kafir (means disbelievers to islam) and aalso says that hundred thousand of sunni are in terrible condition under safavid.
Even othaman claim that two hundred ninteen thousand (219,000) sunni is kill by safavid but the reality is that the total population of country was approximately between 170-180 thousand due to different source to accurate but according to all of these sources min 170 thousand and mix 180 thousand .
Now how can shah ismail kill 219,000 sunni peopel of his country when all population of country is 170 to 180 thousand which is written by othaman sultan to get the support of religious scholar.
It's unlogical that shah ismail kill 219,000 from 180,000 if consider miximam population.
Even othaman historian write that shah ismail kill 20,000 sunni after siege of tabriz even if you research you will get that tabriz total thousand was 20 thousand population when he siege the tabriz.
Did he will 20,000 from 20,000?
So who running the city then the ghost?
If shah ismail really force people to convert then the tabriz left in hand of othaman many times why they don't reconvert them into sunni Islam.
I not gonna defense him but not label him for thing that he don't do .
I wish he forcely convert but he didn't.
If he did now 7 more countries shia Muslim majority country would be but he didn't not that much which is claim by Social media and othaman historian which unlogical to kill 219 from 180.
There are more than 300 books in perisan and Turkish on conflict between safavid and othaman in these all this are metioned in detail .
I know you don't not perisan and Turkish so write in summary for that may it may could help you in your research and help you for your more or nexts video .
Thanks for your efforts you do.
Keep going on and never stop your work if you are unmotivated too.
Hello brother
I also researched the Safavid state and Shiism in Iran
According to what I understood
Shiism began in Iran in a very ancient era
But it spread little by little during the Buyid era, and nearly a quarter of Iran became Shiite
The Ilkhanids supported and strengthened the power of the Shiites
But when Shah Ismail ruled
97 Lebanese scientists were taken from Jabal Amel! He settled them in Iran and supported them with all his might
Even their names are mentioned
These Iranian scholars taught Shiism, and some of them were created by Iranian Shiite scholars
And the snowball continued to spin
Until the collapse of the Safavid state
To the point that the authority in Qom is compared to the authority in Najaf
With companionship for several other reasons
But in reality, it is difficult to spread religion by force
Especially in a country like Iran
@@szulfiqaralishah1472
When I compare myself to when I was 14 years old
My strongest achievement was that I reached the ninth grade
With Shah Ismail, whose name was written in gold with the greatest conquerors
This makes me upset :(
Awesome.
As a Shia Muslim, some information is half right and half wrong here. There is no such thing as Shia Quran or Sunni Quran. Quran is the same for both the sects.
Also, Safavid did had discriminatory policies against Sunni's. But didn't Ummayad's and Abbasid's did the same. Also, forcefully converting large population around today's Iran, Iraq, Azerbaijan is just ridiculous and a Ottomon propaganda. If this was true, then why didn't Safavid forcefully converted Georgians, Armenians, Kurdish, Baloch etc. Today, they are still Sunni's. Iraq, Azerbaijan and Iran were secretly Shia for a long time because Shias practise Taqiyya. So now they all came out as openly Shias under Safavid rule.
History is sometimes very biased and false because it is written by victors.
Ismail was a great leader. Imagine if he lived long, he could have achieved so much.
I don't understand why they call him Iranian. All Turkish Qizilbash poets in the Ottoman Empire have poems written in his name. (for example. "Open the doors, let's go to the shah" Pir Sultan Abdal)
Well he protected and defended Iranian identity, land, and culture.
No Turkic

You just believe whatever the Azerbaijani nationalists tell you? look up azerbaijan. It's a persian territory that has had the same/similar name for the past 2500 years.
Yes
Iran word is Azerbaijani word and have nothing with "Arrian" word,Iran word taken from Azerbaijani king's Name-Mannaean Iranzu (Mannaean were scythians),Persian language invented in 300 AD and When ur first ancestors came these land,They called Iran as "Parsa",When Turks Conquered Iran they Called themselves King of Iran because of Population,Turks were too many in Iran,Their numbers decreased due to wars,There were many wars in the territory of Iran, and a large part of the army was made up of Turks.I can even give an abbreviated list of wars

Also was alcohol officially illegal in Safavid Iran?
Sorry for the late response
Yes, they drank all the time, but it was only allowed for the nobility.
Kurds are literally crying in the comments. He speaks Turkish as native language,he claims to have Turkic origin on his poets,he has an army completely composed of Turkic soldiers, he is the grandson of a Turkic khan,but he was not a Turk but a Kurd? Why because he has some Kurdish roots from his fathers lineage. You lost your mind. You even cannot be taken serious.
The palace language of the Safavids was Azerbaijani Turkish, and Shah İsmail was writing poems in Azerbaijan Turkish.
1)"Xətai də natiq oldı Türkistanïn piri oldı"
2)"Çün yetdi seba o yar katına Ol Türk-i vefa-güzar katına."
3)"Sen ey Türk-i peri peyker, ecaib sün-i Yezad'san Görenden berü ruh-sarun, sözüm, Allahu ekber'dir."
4)"Ey Hatâî! Şol Huten Türki saçınun şemmesi, Nafe-yi sehraya saldı belki misk ü enberi!?"
5)Yetdükce tükenür Arab'un kûy u meskeni, Bağdad her nece kim Türkman kopar"
These are the manuscripts written by Shah Ismail about his Turkishness 🇦🇿
Source : The Divan of Hatayi written by Shah Ismail with his own hands
Great historians such as Tufan Gündüz Celal Şengör Petrushki and V.V.Bartvold write "The Safavid dynasty was definitely Turkish
On the other hand, .V.V.Bartvold writes: The Safavids were certainly not Persians, but descended from the dynasty of the Azerbaijani Turkish sheikhs!
Shah Ismail was a Turkist leader, he saw himself as a Turkestan pir, he wrote in his letter to the Chinese emperor: If you are narrow-minded and go to Turkistan, I will cut off your head with my own hands.I will send it to the king of Portugal!

His ancestry was mixed, from various ethnic groups such as Georgians, Greeks, Kurds and Turkomans

After Ismail defeated the Uzbeks, his victory was portrayed in Safavid records as a victory over the mythological Turanians
His ancestry was mixed, from various ethnic groups such as Georgians, Greeks, Kurds and Turkomans
His father, Haydar, was the sheikh of the Safavid tariqa (Sufi order) and a direct descendant of its Kurdish founder, Safi-ad-din Ardabili (1252-1334)
Safavids were ethnically a mix of Kurds, Azeris and even Mazandaranis, with Persian culture
Search "official language of the Safavids" in ENGLISH and see what it says
Yes he has left approximately 1400 verses in Azeri language, which he chose to use for political reasons
But it's reported that he approximately 50 verses of his Persian poetry have also SURVIVED
His son, Tahmasp I, literally wrote a whole new Shahnameh in Persian
It's called Shahnameh of Shah Tahmasp
Ismail grew up bilingual, speaking both Persian and Azeri
In July 1501, Ismail was enthroned as Shah of Iran in Tabriz but after defeating an Aq Qoyunlu army in 1502, Ismail officially took the title of "Shah of Iran" and that's BEFORE having anuy kind of control over Iran
His campaign in taking control over Iran started in 1503 but he gave himself that title while he had control ONLY over Tabriz and some provinces north of Aras river
He also appointed a former Iranian vizier named Amir Zakariya, as his vizier
He appointed the Iranian Amir Najm al-Din Mas'ud Gilani as the new vakil
This was because Ismail had begun favoring the Iranians more than the Qizilbash, who, although they had played a crucial role in Ismail's campaigns, possessed too much power and were no longer considered trustworthy
The majority of scholars agree that his empire was an Iranian one
When he reached Lahijan in 1494, he gifted Mirza Ali Karkiya a copy of the medieval Persian epic Shahnameh (Book of Kings) with over 300 illustrations
Owing to his fondness of Iranian national legends, Ismail named three of his four sons after mythological shahs and heroes of the Shahnameh
His oldest son was named Tahmasp, after the last shah of the Pishdadian dynasty
His next son Sam after the champion of the Pishdadian shah Manuchehr and ancestor of the celebrated warrior hero Rostam
And his youngest son Bahram after the Sasanian shah Bahram V who ironically had inflicted heavy defeats on Turkic Kidarites, killed their king and captured their queen
Ismail's expertise in Persian poetic tales such as the Shahnameh, helped him to represent himself as the heir to the Iranian model of kingship
According to the modern historian Abbas Amanat, Ismail was motivated to visualize himself as a shah of the Shahnameh, possibly Kaykhosrow, the archetype of a great Iranian king, and the person who overcame the Turanian king Afrasiyab, the nemesis of Iran
Take a look at his depicted image in a 1590s engraving by Theodor de Bry and see what's he called

Honestly ottomans had cheatcodes, they would be rolled over if they didn't have those cannons.
I see some people arguing if Ismail was Iranian or not.
first of all , what we know as Nation-State is a modern term.
Iran ( previously Eranshahr) has so many ethnic groups. Kurds , Turks , Lurs , Baloch, Arabs, Persians etc.
( btw that's why Reza Shah asked westerners to call us Iran not Persia!)
yes he was Turk( maybe with Kurdish roots) but in a larger scale he was an Iranian.
It's not strange that from time to time some ethnics has ruled Iran ( as you see later on with Zands)
Love Shah Ismail I ❤
From Pakistan 🇵🇰
great vid
You did great job mate but don't forget that Ismail wrote all of his own poems in Turkish. His ancestry was Turkish/Kurdish. He is not Persian but he was Shah of Persia. Last revision from me to the your video is about "Selim massacred to 40000 Shia" this information is totally lie. If you look at the official books of the population "Nüfus Defterleri" you will see if killing 40000 people in anatolia mean you will kill almost big percent of Anatolia. This is impossible and any empires don't want this because of much reasons.
You pronounced the name of Isma’il Shah wrong, it’s pronounced “Isma-yil” not “Izma-yil”
azerbaijan was part of iran kingdom .😊

Bro I from iran, Tehran.
shah ismail and his ancestors were also all shia Muslim.
But there is thing in theology of shia islam that you can hidden your religious identity which call "taqiyah" I hope spell will be correct.
When it's dangerous for you to show or express your real belif and religion.
And some people who claim that shah ismail safavid make Iran shia.
Even there are a lot of sources from sunni book that Iran become majority shia Muslim country from 13th century after mongol empire divided and the dynasty comes bigger than safavid dynasty knows ilkhatean dynasty .
"King uljatu" of ilkhatean dynasty become shia Muslim (it's long story why and how he convert but for short he make compitition between every sect of Islam and he convinced by Allama halıy who was shia scholar from Iraq and the reason behind this compitition was so long to explain ) and declared the official religion of country (iran) is Twelver shia islam.
But after attack of tamurid empire who kill and massacre persian people.
So people has afraid and do TAQIYAH hidden their religion (shia islam) and after safavid people again freely to show their religious beliefs and don't a afraid to do TAQIYAH.
In your video you said that he claim alid or twelve imam.
It interesting topic to discuss is that in shia theology and we shia belive that there are twelve imam and after that some follow the scholar and some follow person known as syed/per/murshad.
And qızılbash and all other shia follow him as religious leader after twelve imam,
As he successor of twelve imam not as twelve imam
It's like pop in Christianity who's not claim jeuse but every Christian/or/ follower of jeuse who should follow pop as religious leader.
Even our successor of twelve imam of now is imam khomani and after his death syed also khameni is our religious leader as successor of twelve imam but it's doesn't mean that we claim him as twelve imam.
And some people who claim that shah ismail safavid make Iran shia, it's half wrong and half right .
First of all safavid was not ruling Iran only,
Safavid also rule kürdistan which is still sunni were under safavid for 240 years
safavid also rule sistan and boluchastan of Iran and modern day pakistan which is still sunni even both side were under safavid for 240 years,
Safavid also rule Afghanistan which still sunni were under safavid for 240 years,
Safavid also rule Turkmenistan which still sunni which were under safavid for 240 years.
Safavid also rule some province and city of Uzbekistan such as samarqand and bukhara which is still sunni were under safavid for 240 years.
Safavid also rule persian gulf countries but still they are sunni which were under safavid rule for 240 years,
they claim Arabian gulf/ only gulf but 100 of historical proof that it persian gulf
Safavid also rule the north part of Iraq which is still sunni area which were under safavid for 240 years,
Safavid also rule armenia which is still Christianity country which were under safavid for 240 years,
Safavid also rule Georgia which is still Christianity country were under safavid for 240 years.
If safavid forcely convert shia then why all of this seven (7) countries under safavid are sunni even after safavid rule for 240?
Why they are not convert to shia if shah ismail was force to converting shia or die?
It mean that he didn't did sunni but he margate them
People Persia (iran) and azeribjan were 70% already shia but under TAQIYAH now after safavid 30% of sünni who were live in central forcely migrated to board area to for sure that there is not threat of rebail in centre country by sunni when fighting with neighbor othaman and Uzbek on border.
Second reason of force migration
He immragiate a lot of sunni from centre of country is to make human shield of sunni against sunni.
If Uzbek attack Iranian sunni (modern day known as afghan and tajik) was defensiing country and both sunni kill each other.
In result automatically shia population in country increase as capmare to sunni
And even if othaman attack sunni kürd were defensiing country in result sunni kill sunni and automatically shia population increase as capare in country as campare to sunni .
And after external are of safavid east afghan separate from Iran

Great video! Subscribed for more content! Can you please tell me what sources you used (if it is not too much trouble), especially for the parts regarding Shah Ismail being an admirer of Cyrus?
It can be said that there are no sources regarding Shah Ismail being a fan of Cyrus. Shah Ismayil has always been a person who valued Turkishness and exalted Turkishness.
Your pronunciation of Gilan was crazy. It's not Gillian, it's Ji - Lan Or gee lan.
Guilan.
Is it still just speculation as to why he specifically chose Twelver Shi'ism?
Good question. His father had converted to Shia Islam to increase his relationship with the Qizilbash, so Ismail was raised Shia. Or at least that's what I got from my research.

Safavid also rule the north part of Iraq which is still sunni area which were under safavid for 240 years,
Safavid also rule armenia which is still Christianity country which were under safavid for 240 years,
Safavid also rule Georgia which is still Christianity country were under safavid for 240 years.
If safavid forcely convert shia then why all of this seven (7) countries under safavid are sunni even after safavid rule for 240?
Why they are not convert to shia if shah ismail was force to converting shia or die?
It mean that he didn't did sunni but he margate them
People Persia (iran) and azeribjan were 70% already shia but under TAQIYAH now after safavid 30% of sünni who were live in central forcely migrated to board area to for sure that there is not threat of rebail in centre country by sunni when fighting with neighbor othaman and Uzbek on border.
Second reason of force migration
He immragiate a lot of sunni from centre of country is to make human shield of sunni against sunni.
If Uzbek attack Iranian sunni (modern day known as afghan and tajik) was defensiing country and both sunni kill each other.
In result automatically shia population in country increase as capmare to sunni
And even if othaman attack sunni kürd were defensiing country in result sunni kill sunni and automatically shia population increase as capare in country as campare to sunni .
And after external are of safavid east afghan separate from Iran
in result central area was shia (modern day iran) And external was imagrated sünni (modern day Afghanistan).
iran become 90% shia country after this imagrated sunni from external area of country separated not at time of shah ismail.
On time of shah ismail 70% were but now 90% due to sunni area has separated after nadir shah die.
Even othaman do that too shia kill shia.
Let me give you example janseries were also shia Muslim and have sufi belif same as safavid belif.
And every time othaman attack safavid they use most shia Muslim (alvi) as possible as they can to decrease shia population in anatolia (modern day Türkiyə/turkey) .
Othaman use scholar for propaganda against shia Muslim.
Othaman tell in Friday pray to people shia are kafir (means disbelievers to islam) and aalso says that hundred thousand of sunni are in terrible condition under safavid.
Even othaman claim that two hundred ninteen thousand (219,000) sunni is kill by safavid but the reality is that the total population of country was approximately between 170-180 thousand due to different source to accurate but according to all of these sources min 170 thousand and mix 180 thousand .
Now how can shah ismail kill 219,000 sunni peopel of his country when all population of country is 170 to 180 thousand which is written by othaman sultan to get the support of religious scholar.
It's unlogical that shah ismail kill 219,000 from 180,000 if consider miximam population.
Even othaman historian write that shah ismail kill 20,000 sunni after siege of tabriz even if you research you will get that tabriz total thousand was 20 thousand population when he siege the tabriz.
Did he will 20,000 from 20,000?
So who running the city then the ghost?
If shah ismail really force people to convert then the tabriz left in hand of othaman many times why they don't reconvert them into sunni Islam.
I not gonna defense him but not label him for thing that he don't do .
I wish he forcely convert but he didn't.
If he did now 7 more countries shia Muslim majority country would be but he didn't not that much which is claim by Social media and othaman historian which unlogical to kill 219 from 180.
There are more than 300 books in perisan and Turkish on conflict between safavid and othaman in these all this are metioned in detail .
I know you don't not perisan and Turkish so write in summary for that may it may could help you in your research and help you for your more or nexts video .
Thanks for your efforts you do.
Keep going on and never stop your work if you are unmotivated too.
@Salty Historian @Salty Historian bro I from iran shah ismail and his ancestors were also all shia Muslim.
But there is thing in theology of shia islam that you can hidden your religious identity which call "taqiyah" I hope spell will be correct.
When it's dangerous for you to show or express your real belif and religion.
And some people who claim that shah ismail safavid make Iran shia.
Even there are a lot of sources from sunni book that Iran become majority shia Muslim country from 13th century after mongol empire divided and the dynasty comes bigger than safavid dynasty knows ilkhatean dynasty .
"King uljatu" of ilkhatean dynasty become shia Muslim (it's long story why and how he convert but for short he make compitition between every sect of Islam and he convinced by Allama halıy who was shia scholar from Iraq and the reason behind this compitition was so long to explain ) and declared the official religion of country (iran) is Twelver shia islam.
But after attack of tamurid empire who kill and massacre persian people.
So people has afraid and do TAQIYAH hidden their religion (shia islam) and after safavid people again freely to show their religious beliefs and don't a afraid to do TAQIYAH.
In your video you said that he claim alid or twelve imam.
It interesting topic to discuss is that in shia theology and we shia belive that there are twelve imam and after that some follow the scholar and some follow person known as syed/per/murshad.
And qızılbash and all other shia follow him as religious leader after twelve imam,
As he successor of twelve imam not as twelve imam
It's like pop in Christianity who's not claim jeuse but every Christian/or/ follower of jeuse who should follow pop as religious leader.
Even our successor of twelve imam of now is imam khomani and after his death syed also khameni is our religious leader as successor of twelve imam but it's doesn't mean that we claim him as twelve imam.
And some people who claim that shah ismail safavid make Iran shia, it's half wrong and half right .
First of all safavid was not ruling Iran only,
Safavid also rule kürdistan which is still sunni were under safavid for 240 years
safavid also rule sistan and boluchastan of Iran and modern day pakistan which is still sunni even both side were under safavid for 240 years,
Safavid also rule Afghanistan which still sunni were under safavid for 240 years,
Safavid also rule Turkmenistan which still sunni which were under safavid for 240 years.
Safavid also rule some province and city of Uzbekistan such as samarqand and bukhara which is still sunni were under safavid for 240 years.
Safavid also rule persian gulf countries but still they are sunni which were under safavid rule for 240 years,
they claim Arabian gulf/ only gulf but 100 of historical proof that it persian gulf

Why is there such confusion about the origins of
this important dynasty, which reasserted Iranian
identity and established an independent Iranian
state after eight and a half centuries of rule by
foreign dynasties? RM Savory, Iran under the
Safavids (Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, 1980 ) P.3
John L. Esposito, The Oxford History of Islam,
Oxford University Press US, 1999. pp 364: "To
support their legitimacy, the Safavid dynasty of Iran
(1501-1732) devoted a cultural policy to establish
their regime as the reconstruction of the historic
Iranian monarchy. To the end, they commissioned
elaborate copies of the Shahnameh, the Iranian
national epic, such as this one made for Tahmasp in the 1520s.”
Ira Marvin Lapidus, A history of Islamic Societies,
Cambridge University Press, 2002, 2nd edition. pg
445: To bolster the prestige of the state, the Safavid
dynasty sponsored an Iran-Islamic style of culture
concentrating on court poetry, painting, and
monumental architecture that symbolized not only
the Islamic credentials of the state but also the glory
of the ancient Persian traditions."

As a person who loathes Ismail the video was very good and entertaining. Btw Ismail wasn’t a Muslim because he is stopped Islamic expansion
Ther is a mistake : Kudestan or Qurjestan They are the Kurmanji of the Caspian Sea and Khorasan, and Iraq has nothing to do with them, but they occupied the lands of the Assyrian Christians and Armenians when the Ottomans brought them.
Iran was ruled by various native Iranians during Iranian intermezzo though so not over a millennia.
Our Great king🇮🇷❤️
Let me guess, you’re an avid islam hater
1:30 I hope no Italian would translate what shah ismail said in this part 💀💀💀
When Shah Ismail was a child, he spoke only Azerbaijani
He always spoke Azerbaijani!
He wrote his poems in Azerbaijani!
About your question in the beginning regarding Ismail's nationality, ethnic background wise he is a mix of three main groups. His maternal grandfather and paternal grandmother were Turkic people of the Aq Qoyunlu dynasty. His maternal grandmother was of Christian descent as she had both Georgian and Pontic Greek ancestors. His paternal grandfather on the other hand was of Kurdish descent, and was a leader of the Safavids when they were still a religious order and not a proper state. Determining Ismail's culture though is a bit more tricky as culture isn't something that's exactly quantifiable. The two main influences on his culture were Persian and Turkic, and he incorporated both elements into the state he built. On one hand he very frequently used Persian imagery and concepts, with him even going on to give most of his sons names from the medieval Persian epic Shahnama. On the other hand he wrote the vast majority of his poetry in Turkic, with around 1400 verses in Azerbaijani and only around 50 in Persian, although I will add that his Persian poetry wasn't preserved as well as his Azerbaijani poetry so there might have been more Persian ones that have been lost. In correspondence with foreign rulers he also preferred Turkic over Persian, which resulted in an ironic situation where Selim, the Sultan of the Ottoman Turks, was writing to Ismail in Persian while Ismail, the Shah of Iran, was responding to him in Turkic. This cultural synthesis isn't something limited to the Safavids actually and is called the Turco-Persian tradition in historiography. Overall I would say between his various ethnic and cultural elements the Turkic component is the foremost one however simply calling him a Turk with no further clarification would be a massive oversimplification that ignores his multi-ethnic and multi-cultural background.
Beautifully said

Sheikh Safieddin Safavat, the grandfather of Shah Ismail, is mentioned in his book as "Piri Turk".
i knew that mughals were interested in persian language, and now i get why
After watching it i'm proud to be Safavi
This empire was one of the great Iranian dynasties of Iran’s late middle age period. The Safavids were originally a dynasty of Iranic Kurdish origins from Sheik Haydar’s line, though very Persianized and used Persian culture and language as the dominant cultural discourse. The Safavids were the first people in the region to recreate the modern country of Iran with defined borders.
They mixed with Turkified Iranian Azarbaijanis and Pontic Greeks. The dynasty was not Turcoman at all because it was not ruled by a Turkic ruling family. That’s why this dynasty is referred to as a Persian empire as opposed to a Persianate empire of Turkic ruling class. I am very happy that your video highlighted these points. Thank you.
No, the Safavids didn't mix with the Pontics.

Are you tired of telling these stories? Shah Ismail Khatai is a Turk! It's history and it's undeniable, go read your own little history

Real Azerbaijan is in iran not the republic of Azerbaijan and shah Ismail is Iranian azeri
He’s an ethnic Turkic, an Azerbaycan Turkish
So why safavid call they land Iran and speaking persian and try to say they father are from sasanid ?

First of all, I would like to mention that this video is very well done and your efforts are evident. Great job on bringing attention to such an important topic in history that nobody is discussing sadly.
Now for my criticism. I don't think it's appropriate to portray Ismail so lightly next to Selim. Ismail became Shah at the age of 14, and the first thing he did was to initiate the mass conversion to Shiism. This was not a small matter and often happened through force and fear. Ismail killed nearly 250,000 Sunnis simply because he despised them. He massacred the Aq Qoyunlu, infiltrated the Kizilbash into Anatolia to expand his empire, and was behind the Shah Kolu Rebellion that devastated innocent villages, massacred women, children, and men. He showed no mercy to the Kurdish Sunnis in Kirkuk, Mosul, and elsewhere. He was a great conqueror, but if there really is a villain in this case, it's him, and I won't even speak about his filtering methods.
Selim is a joke compared to Ismail, and his hatred for him comes from his time as governor of Trabzon. Ismail had attacked this province several times, and Selim had to defend himself. He saw the rise of Ismail's gigantic empire and the suffering he caused. In the Battle of Trabzon in 1505, he pushed back his army without any help from Bayezid II. In 1507, he fought against Ismail himself in Erzincan and defeated him. They already knew each other, and Selim knew he was a general threat. Selim was a so-called Hanafite, and Ismail destroyed the tomb of Abu Hanifa. The 40,000 Kizilbash were not the reason for the battle of Chaldiran. Just imagine, in your empire, there are 40,000 people who are loyal to the Shah. You are on your way to stop this Shah and, if possible, kill him. You have to go far from your capital and are afraid of a second Shah Kolu Rebellion. What do you do? You try to get rid of them as quickly as possible. So Selim had his Pashas pursue and massacre them, which was not great, but there was a reason for it: it was for the stability of his empire.
Nevertheless, the rivalry between Yavuz Sultan Selim and Shah Ismail Khatai is legendary, and you should have talked more about their funny letters, like the fact that Ismail sent Selim excrement, and Selim responded by sending sweets with the headline "one sends each other their delicacies". Good video, keep it up, but please be a bit more objective next time.
I very much see where you're coming from, I was a bit too easy on Ismail. I guess it's was because since I live from the West, I had very few sources to use for this video, and the ones I did have only really showed the highlights of his life. I'll try to be more objective moving forward, especially when tackling this area in history. Thank you for your critique, you really seem to know your stuff!
@@saltyhistorian2261 yeah, it’s an interessant topic that needs more attention! So you did a great job with this video. I recommend you to read this era.ed.ac.uk/bitstream/1842/7526/1/Youssef-Jamali1981_full.pdf it’s and good pdf with a lot of information (it’s written by an Iranian historican known as an Ismail Sympathisant, it’s still very objective
@Salty Historian @Salty Historian bro I from iran shah ismail and his ancestors were also all shia Muslim.
But there is thing in theology of shia islam that you can hidden your religious identity which call "taqiyah" I hope spell will be correct.
When it's dangerous for you to show or express your real belif and religion.
And some people who claim that shah ismail safavid make Iran shia.
Even there are a lot of sources from sunni book that Iran become majority shia Muslim country from 13th century after mongol empire divided and the dynasty comes bigger than safavid dynasty knows ilkhatean dynasty .
"King uljatu" of ilkhatean dynasty become shia Muslim (it's long story why and how he convert but for short he make compitition between every sect of Islam and he convinced by Allama halıy who was shia scholar from Iraq and the reason behind this compitition was so long to explain ) and declared the official religion of country (iran) is Twelver shia islam.
But after attack of tamurid empire who kill and massacre persian people.
So people has afraid and do TAQIYAH hidden their religion (shia islam) and after safavid people again freely to show their religious beliefs and don't a afraid to do TAQIYAH.
In your video you said that he claim alid or twelve imam.
It interesting topic to discuss is that in shia theology and we shia belive that there are twelve imam and after that some follow the scholar and some follow person known as syed/per/murshad.
And qızılbash and all other shia follow him as religious leader after twelve imam,
As he successor of twelve imam not as twelve imam
It's like pop in Christianity who's not claim jeuse but every Christian/or/ follower of jeuse who should follow pop as religious leader.
Even our successor of twelve imam of now is imam khomani and after his death syed also khameni is our religious leader as successor of twelve imam but it's doesn't mean that we claim him as twelve imam.
And some people who claim that shah ismail safavid make Iran shia, it's half wrong and half right .
First of all safavid was not ruling Iran only,
Safavid also rule kürdistan which is still sunni were under safavid for 240 years
safavid also rule sistan and boluchastan of Iran and modern day pakistan which is still sunni even both side were under safavid for 240 years,
Safavid also rule Afghanistan which still sunni were under safavid for 240 years,
Safavid also rule Turkmenistan which still sunni which were under safavid for 240 years.
Safavid also rule some province and city of Uzbekistan such as samarqand and bukhara which is still sunni were under safavid for 240 years.
Safavid also rule persian gulf countries but still they are sunni which were under safavid rule for 240 years,
they claim Arabian gulf/ only gulf but 100 of historical proof that it persian gulf
Safavid also rule the north part of Iraq which is still sunni area which were under safavid for 240 years,
Safavid also rule armenia which is still Christianity country which were under safavid for 240 years,
Safavid also rule Georgia which is still Christianity country were under safavid for 240 years.
If safavid forcely convert shia then why all of this seven (7) countries under safavid are sunni even after safavid rule for 240?
Why they are not convert to shia if shah ismail was force to converting shia or die?
It mean that he didn't did sunni but he margate them
People Persia (iran) and azeribjan were 70% already shia but under TAQIYAH now after safavid 30% of sünni who were live in central forcely migrated to board area to for sure that there is not threat of rebail in centre country by sunni when fighting with neighbor othaman and Uzbek on border.
Second reason of force migration
He immragiate a lot of sunni from centre of country is to make human shield of sunni against sunni.
If Uzbek attack Iranian sunni (modern day known as afghan and tajik) was defensiing country and both sunni kill each other.
In result automatically shia population in country increase as capmare to sunni
And even if othaman attack sunni kürd were defensiing country in result sunni kill sunni and automatically shia population increase as capare in country as campare to sunni .
And after external are of safavid east afghan separate from Iran
in result central area was shia (modern day iran) And external was imagrated sünni (modern day Afghanistan).
iran become 90% shia country after this imagrated sunni from external area of country separated not at time of shah ismail.
On time of shah ismail 70% were but now 90% due to sunni area has separated after nadir shah die.
Even othaman do that too shia kill shia.
Let me give you example janseries were also shia Muslim and have sufi belif same as safavid belif.
And every time othaman attack safavid they use most shia Muslim (alvi) as possible as they can to decrease shia population in anatolia (modern day Türkiyə/turkey) .
Othaman use scholar for propaganda against shia Muslim.
Othaman tell in Friday pray to people shia are kafir (means disbelievers to islam) and aalso says that hundred thousand of sunni are in terrible condition under safavid.
Even othaman claim that two hundred ninteen thousand (219,000) sunni is kill by safavid but the reality is that the total population of country was approximately between 170-180 thousand due to different source to accurate but according to all of these sources min 170 thousand and mix 180 thousand .
Now how can shah ismail kill 219,000 sunni peopel of his country when all population of country is 170 to 180 thousand which is written by othaman sultan to get the support of religious scholar.
It's unlogical that shah ismail kill 219,000 from 180,000 if consider miximam population.
Even othaman historian write that shah ismail kill 20,000 sunni after siege of tabriz even if you research you will get that tabriz total thousand was 20 thousand population when he siege the tabriz.
Did he will 20,000 from 20,000?
So who running the city then the ghost?
If shah ismail really force people to convert then the tabriz left in hand of othaman many times why they don't reconvert them into sunni Islam.
I not gonna defense him but not label him for thing that he don't do .
I wish he forcely convert but he didn't.
If he did now 7 more countries shia Muslim majority country would be but he didn't not that much which is claim by Social media and othaman historian which unlogical to kill 219 from 180.
There are more than 300 books in perisan and Turkish on conflict between safavid and othaman in these all this are metioned in detail .
I know you don't not perisan and Turkish so write in summary for that may it may could help you in your research and help you for your more or nexts video .
Thanks for your efforts you do.

During his visit to the Safavid state in the 80s and 90s of the 17th century, the German traveler Engelbert Kempfer also encountered the fact that the Turkish language had a large sphere of influence in the country. He wrote in his memoirs:
"...The Turkish language spread from the palace to the homes of high-ranking and dignified persons, and as a result, everyone who wanted to gain the king's respect spoke this language. Now it has reached the point where it is considered a crime not to know the Turkish language for anyone whose head is worth more than his body. Turkish language is easier than all the eastern languages. The dignity and grandeur of the way Turkish is spoken has led to its being the only spoken language in the palace and the royal palace.
In Ottoman Turkey, Persian was the official language of the court and Sultan Selim has 2000 verses of Persian poetry, cry Panturk
Why is there such confusion about the origins of
this important dynasty, which reasserted Iranian
identity and established an independent Iranian
state after eight and a half centuries of rule by
foreign dynasties? RM Savory, Iran under the
Safavids (Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, 1980 ) P.3
John L. Esposito, The Oxford History of Islam,
Oxford University Press US, 1999. pp 364: "To
support their legitimacy, the Safavid dynasty of Iran
(1501-1732) devoted a cultural policy to establish
their regime as the reconstruction of the historic
Iranian monarchy. To the end, they commissioned
elaborate copies of the Shahnameh, the Iranian
national epic, such as this one made for Tahmasp in the 1520s.”

Some information in not 100% right. But it's a great video.
As a Shiite
you are wrong
Shah Ismail is not the Twelve Imam
But his son Tahmasp created a position called Wali al-Faqih
It is to bring in a Shiite jurist or scholar and make him the one to run the Shiite state at a time when the Twelve Imams are absent.
As for the absence of the Twelve Imams, it is a complicated matter that I am not discussing
If you want to benefit, perhaps I will dedicate a special discussion and explanation to it.
As for the Shiite Qur’an, there is no Shiite Qur’an as a single book
I have good intentions for you and I think you do not know much about Shiism
I wish I had corrected your information
From Iraq 🇮🇶💛🇧🇷
Yeah, no. Shah Ismail I claimed to be the Mahdi as well as a reincarnation of Ali...
He was a persian king who called him self shah of Iran saffavid kings were persians but the people who fought for them were qezelbash and turkish people
Conqueror Sultan Mehmet also called himself "Kaizeri-rum", that is, the ruler of the Romanians. Now, according to your opinion, Fateh Sultan Memet is Greek? The reason they called themselves "Shah of Iran" was because they ruled all of Iran, and I reminded you that Iran is just a geographical name. The Shah, the army, and the people in the main positions in the Safavid state were Turks. For this reason, you cannot call this state "Persian state".
This interpretation is completely wrong. Alexander was originally from North Macedonia. Should the people of North Macedonia say that Alexander is 🇲🇰? No, he belongs to the history of Greece, North Macedonia is a newly formed country, this case happened exactly between the Republic of Azerbaijan and Iran, North Azerbaijan was a part of Iran, which unfortunately was handed over to Russia due to the weakness of the rulers. In Iran, the provinces of Azerbaijan and Ardabil There are many Azeri languages, they are a part of Iran. The Safavid dynasty also belongs to the city of Ardabil, and the most works of Sheikh Safi (the founder of the Safavids) are there.
@@alixpowrt3456 This comment of yours is completely wrong. Personally, as someone who researches history, I do not see your comment as correct. It is true that Alexander the Great was born in Macedonia, but he was a Greek living in Macedonia, and the main population of Macedonia was Greeks in ancient times (but not now). But the Safavids were in the city of Ardabil in Azerbaijan. They spoke Azerbaijani Turkish, lived according to Turkish ancestry and called themselves Turks. Shah Ismail also called himself a Turk in his poems, and many historians confirm that the Safavids were Turks. The language of the Safavids was Turkish, the army was Turkish, and the main officials of the state were also Turkish. How come you can call a state ruled by Turks "Persian"? And you mentioned that Azerbaijan is a part of Iran. Let's look at a history: Azerbaijan was the center of the "Eldenizlar" state founded by Azerbaijani Turks in 1136, and they ruled all of Iran from this region. The center of the Karagoyunlu and Aggoyunlu Turkic states, which were established later, was Azerbaijan, and they ruled the whole of Iran from here. The center of the Safavid state was Azerbaijan, and they ruled all of Iran from here. Now tell me why these states should be "Persian" when their leaders are Turks and their armies are Turks?
@@alixpowrt3456 What happened, you couldn't answer? All you and your ilk do is falsify history. You Persians do not accept the fact that the Turks ruled the Persians for nearly 1000 years
