Years: 1512 - 1512
The death of Najm-e Sani during the clash with the Uzbeks causes Ismail to appoint Abd al-Baqi Yazdi as the new vakil of the empire.
Ismail’s proclamation of the Shi'i sect of Islam as the established religion of Iran and its dependencies provokes the Ottoman Turks.
The process of conversion is facilitated by the fact that much of the population considers him a Muslim saint as well as shah.
