Best Answer

The shah Abbas reformed aspects of both military and civilian life. he limited the power of the military & created two new armies that would be loyal to him only.

one was an army of Persians, the other were a force that Abbas recruited from the Christian north and modeled after the Ottoman Janissaries. He equipped both of these armies with modern artillery.

He also reformed his government. He punished corruption severely and promoted only officials who proved their competence and loyalty. he hired foreigners from neighboring countries to fill positions in the government. Abbas brought members of Christian religious orders into the empire to convince European merchants that his empire was tolerant of other religions. Then industry, trade, art exchanges grew between the empire and European nations!
