This article is clearly incomplete and does not cover major aspects of Ismail's life. More information should be added regarding the following issues:

  • Child: Ismael's life in Estakhr and Gilan
  • Campaigns in Iran:
Ismail's war against Aq Qoyunlu
Establishment of a new government in Tabriz
Wars against the local powers to unify Iran
  • Diplomatic relations with Mamluks of Egypt and Venice.
  • Religious policies including changing the official religion into Shia, leadership of Qizilbash, invitation of Arab Shia shcolars, etc.
  • Legacy: Establishment of new central government in Iran and unification of the country.
  • Criticism against Ismail's policies.

I hope you can add all of these information in the article.


There is no any improvement in the past 10 days. Thus, the article is failed.
