Abstract

Shah isma'il I Safavid reigned in reign of the tribal forces of Anatolia Turkmen, who were the guardians of the Safavid tradition. During the reign of Shah Isma'il and Tahmasb I, the troops and, in general, military affairs were on the hands of the tribal forces of Qizilbash and its leaders. But the power struggle between these tribes and the chaos caused by Shah Tahmasb and Shah Abbas forced them to make changes in the military structure. The creation of a nonviolent and loyal, fixed army of Georgian and Armenian slaves called Gollar, on the one hand, and the establishment of the Shahsevan unit, on the other hand, was among these. With these actions, the powers of the arbors were reduced and the balance between these forces was established. The main purpose of creating these forces was to provide personal and direct loyalty to the king. Because the tribal forces were loyal To their own people were commanded by them. Keywords: Ghezelbashan, Ghoorchian, Gollar, shahsavan, Shah Abbas the first .
