Persia witnessed a state of political chaos, fear, and panic that plagued the residents of Iranian cities, which endured the princes as a result of these invasions and occupations of their cities, whether from The Mongols, the Ottomans, or the Uzbeks and after the collapse of the Mongol state in Persia, the political situation in the country worsened due to the dynastic conflict over power between the successors of Tamerlane, which lost the Mughal empire its unity and strength. These events contributed to the emergence of a new political force that appeared on the political stage in Persia, except it is the Safavid state that replaced the Mughal state in Iran, as this state was able to extend its control over the country for a long period.
