The only ruler we had called 'emperor' was Brian Boru, but it was really just a boast about being the strongest ruler in Ireland. He was also called 'emperor of all northwest Europe' because of his influence over the Dublin Vikings, but again, he was just memeing. Brain Boru as a whole is a meme really.

>>2675194
You know the modern country of Azerbaijan (historic Shirvan, around Baku) isn't the historic Azerbaijan (Northeast Iran, around Tabriz). They speak the same Turkic dialect which is why they were mixed up in the 20th century when everyone decided that language = ethnicity = country. They've always been seperate regions though. From the perspective of modern Azerbaijan/Shirvan it would make more sense to see Ismail as an Iranian invader, though personally I'd argue that projecting modern Middle Eastern 'nations' into the past is meaningless.

Yeah, just like it was before the Safavids, with dudes like Timur running around making skull towers.
And an Iranian identity was bound to re-emerge at some point, even if Ismail never happened. It'd still be highly separate from other polities and probably idiosyncratic in its practice of Islam.

On the other hand you can blame him for how his successors had to spend 200 years trying to get rid of the Qizilbashi in order to set up a somewhat functioning state in the common sense of the word.

>>2676466
The difference is back then Muslims weren't as divided as they are today, and shiites were all minorities so sectarian violence wasn't that big of a thing.
As for an Iranian identity, most religious ones still think of themselves as Arabs while the less religious ones still don't think of themselves as "Persian" but don't think of themselves as Arab either, just Iranian I guess. Ethnic identity still isn't a thing in Iran, its more about national identity, like it is in any other middle eastern country.
Even though I was born a Shiite I believed the government was genuine in its pan-Islamic message but after seeing shiites reveal their true intentions through the Syrian conflict with their support of a Muslim butcher I don't consider myself a Shiite anymore, if anything today I am more of a Sunni than a Shiite.

Ironically Shiite Islam is the more Arab supremacist sect because they think leadership should remain in the prophets bloodline where Sunnis believe your blood or ethnicity/race shouldn't determine your standing as a Muslim.

Also the plurality of seyyeds (blood descendants of the prophet Mohammad) are Iranian and being a seyyed is seen as a sign of nobility in Iran

>>2676213
are you sunni ?

>>2675499
Based

>>2676580
Born Shiite. Shiite/Sunni is mostly politics anyway but there's always been things I've liked and disliked about both sects. For shiites it's putting the 12 imams on a pedestal, having shrines for them, and the views on some of the companions. For Sunni's it's not accepting criticism of the companions, especially the 1st 3 caliphs (this is different than insult), seeing them like Shia see the imams, and a few other things. Today I don't identify as either but politics have pushed me more towards identifying as a Sunni.

>>2676611
Oh yeah, and I also hate the concept of a Shiite clergy. This is probably my biggest issue with shiism

>>2676631
>Shiite clergy
What is it exactly ? And why do you have a problem with it ?

>>2676661
It's like the Catholic clergy in a way.

It's good because you get less litteraly who imams giving their special snowflake interpretation of Islam.

It's bad because the Shia clergy is basically a mafia in Iran that's taken over the government.

>>2676800
>It's bad because the Shia clergy is basically a mafia in Iran.
So pretty much like the Catholic Church.
Actually i've always liked the fact that there is no clergy in Sunni Islam, it give you a more personal connection to God in my opinion.

>>2676661
Its pretty much a Muslim clergy with a hierarchy system. It's pretty much a bunch of elitist snobs who aren't even really good Muslims themselves but are in it for the power and the connections it provides. Most clerics are corrupt as fuck
>>2676837
>So pretty much like the Catholic Church
I guess in a way you can make the comparison. I don't know much about Catholics but from what I know I don't think they're all that similar.
>Actually i've always liked the fact that there is no clergy in Sunni Islam, it give you a more personal connection to God in my opinion.
Exactly this. Sunni's only have sheikhs and imams who are basically Islamic scholars and are very knowledgeable about the religion.

How is having different interpretations a bad thing? At least the Sunni way anyone can become an imam and preach a peaceful interpretation of the religion. without having to kiss ass to a bunch of mullahs. Omar Suleiman for example is an imam in Texas and ISIS has called for his head because his teachings of Islam are the opposite of ISIS

But the opposite is also true, any moron can preach his own version of Islam and he will be as much listened as the other, it's how you get islamic scholar in saudi arabia claiming that the earth is flat, or that it's okay for muslim husbands to literally eat their wives flesh in case of emergency

Based on your post I doubt you have ever lived in Iran.
"Persian" and "Arab" ethnicities don't exist anymore. Arabs are mixed with Persians and Persians are mixed with Arabs. Iranians in Kuwait, Bahrain, and Qatar all identify as Arabs, as do most practicing Muslim Iranians in Iran who know fluent Arabic. If you were to call someone a "Persian" in Iran you would get laughed at and maybe beaten up, as it is seen as a throwback to pre Islamic Iran and also an insult to who Iranians are today.

Arabic has also been taught in Iranian schools since the revolution and in 50 years everyone in Iran will know fluent Arabic once again. Inshallah Arabic will be our national language once again.

Ali bin Abi Taleb

A quote from a letter he wrote to the governor of Egypt Malik al-Ashtar (translation to English from Wikipedia):

"Infuse your heart with mercy, love and kindness for your subjects. Be not in face of them a voracious animal, counting them as easy prey, for they are of two kinds: either they are your brothers in faith or in creation. Error catches them unaware, deficiencies overcome them, (evil deeds) are committed by them intentionally and by mistake. So grant them your pardon and your forgiveness to the same extent that you hope God will grant you His pardon and His forgiveness. For you are above them, and he who appointed you is above you, and God is above him who appointed you. God has sought from you the fulfillment of their requirements and He is trying you with them."

While I believe that an Ottoman defeat at Chaldiran would have most certainly spelled the Ottoman Empire's doom (Anatolia was already leaning towards Ismail's unorthodox view of Islam and had some serious rioting, hence Selim's offensive), I nonetheless think that the Safavid Empire would be unable to take Rumelia, not to mention that the Qizilbash would likely tear the Empire from the inside upon Ismail's death.

It'd be a much more colorful and much more violent time for Anatolia, in my opinion. Maybe a second 'Anatolian Beyliks' period, fueled by much more unorthodox religious creeds.
