SHAH ABBAS

Shah Abbas I came to power during a time of turmoil in Persia and was able to restore order and stability to the kingdom. He also embarked on a series of military campaigns that expanded the Safavid Empire and made it a major power in the region.

One of Shah Abbas I’s major accomplishments was his religious tolerance. He welcomed different religious communities to his court, including Christians, Jews, and Zoroastrians, which helped to create a more diverse and cosmopolitan society.
