Explanation:
The relation between the Ottoman Empire and the Safavid dynasty has been of a conflictive nature since the Safavid dynasty emerged in Persia during the 16th Century. On the religious side, the conflict between both sides relied on the fact the Ottomans were Sunni Muslims, and the Safavids were Shi'ites, this disagreement on which branch of the Islam to practice made the relationship between both communities very tense. Neither of them was attempting to convert the other Christianity, but rather to make the other practice the same branch of Islam that they did. On the political side, both were often at war and at battle as they shared a border and were attempting to add territory to their empires, which draw them to conflict on constant bases.
