The Safavid Empire was a Shia Islamic empire that ruled over a vast territory in the Middle East from the 16th to the 18th century. The ethnicity of the Safavid Empire's ruling class and population was primarily:
- *Azerbaijani Turkic*: The Safavid dynasty was of Azerbaijani Turkic origin, and the empire's ruling class and military elite were predominantly Turkic-speaking Azerbaijanis.
- *Persian influence*: However, the Safavid Empire also had significant Persian cultural, linguistic, and administrative influences. Persian was the language of administration, literature, and culture in the empire.
The Safavid Empire's ethnic composition was complex, with various groups, including:
- *Turkmens*: Other Turkic groups, such as the Turkmens, also played important roles in the empire.
- *Persians*: Persians were a significant part of the empire's population, particularly in the southern regions.
- *Other ethnic groups*: The empire also included other ethnic groups, such as Georgians, Armenians, and Kurds.
The Safavid Empire's Azerbaijani Turkic origins and Persian cultural influences shaped its identity and legacy.
