Curse the safavids

[ZBR]

The Ottomans and Safavids were not a sectarian conflict, this is completely false.

Both of them were actually Turkish empires, until the 20th century Iran’s official state and military language was Turkish. Persians were actually despised.

The conflict began because both the Ottomans and Safavids fought for control over the Anatolian Turkish nomads. This is why Kurdish people live across the Eastern regions and the border to Iran, due to population exchange.

The Ottomans were not even really Sunni and the Safavids were not even Shia but eventually this led to the sectarian divide as both sought to cement their control and rule.

Ottomans were Sunni Muslim and were seriously invested in defending and protecting Sunni causes around the world, even in realms beyond their power or geopolitical benefits. They sent envoys to Southeast Asia to see the situation of the Malay Java and Yemeni Muslims under the Dutch

Also it’s slanderous to claim they weren’t Muslim

They openly fought for jihad

Also bring kin dosent mean alliance, Somalis fought their kin E v32 Christians for centuries

Amhara are not kin, they’re not related to us, they’re highly admixed with mota and other forager populations, in addition to their natufian input, the ancestors of the modern Somalis were living in the horn before the formation of the Amhara and other groups related to them.

come on bro. the safavids literally turned persians (and i think azeris) into a shia ethnic group. theres little sunnis left from persians. but more sunni azeris still present.

Islam is slowly returning to Iran, though.

I didn’t mean Amhara but their auxiliaries, habasha technically are J
