Contrasts the Ottoman and Safavid empires in the 16th century?

In the 16th century, the Ottoman Empire was a vast, multicultural realm that spanned Southeast Europe, Western Asia, and North Africa, characterized by its administrative efficiency and military prowess. In contrast, the Safavid Empire was primarily located in Persia (modern-day Iran) and was known for its promotion of Shia Islam as the state religion, which differentiated it from the predominantly Sunni Ottoman Empire. While the Ottomans embraced a diverse array of ethnicities and religions, the Safavids emphasized a more homogenous cultural identity centered on Shia Islam. This religious distinction led to significant geopolitical rivalries and cultural exchanges between the two empires.
