The Ottoman Empire defeated the Safavids in 1514 at the Battle of Chaldiran primarily due to superior military organization, tactics, and artillery. The Ottomans, led by Sultan Selim I, utilized their well-trained Janissary troops and advanced cannons to outmaneuver and overpower the Safavid forces.
