The Safavid Empire was located primarily in Persia, which corresponds to modern-day Iran. At its height in the 16th to 18th centuries, it extended into parts of the Caucasus, parts of Central Asia, and even into the Ottoman Empire's territories. The capital was established in Isfahan, which became a major cultural and political center of the empire. The Safavid period is noted for establishing Twelver Shiism as the state religion.
