Abstract :
The rise of the Safavids is one of the most important events and a turning point in the history of Shiism and Iran. The Safavids were able to form the first powerful national Shiite state in Iran. The establishment of this Shiite and national government provoked the reaction of domestic opposition and foreign enemies. The suppression of internal opposition and foreign enemies led to the dominance of militaristic thinking, especially in the first half of this period, as one of the main features of the Safavid rule. Therefore, how the kings and high-ranking commanders of the war managed to lead the military and civilian forces was very important.This military nature led the Safavid government to focus on military thinking, in other words on the application of military tactics, to repair its structures according to the capabilities and inability of the two Ottoman and Uzbek governments in the form of changing traditional military patterns and designing a hybrid model based on nervous structure.Examining the history of military wars in the Safavid era, the role and impact of this military model on the military successes of the Safavid Corps is clearly visible. This study, while analyzing the military tactics of that particular period in the first half of that era, examines this military model
