Özet:

The Ottoman-Safavid conflicts from the early sixteenth to the mid-seventeenth century took place in two geographical spaces, namely Irak-i Arap (Iraq of the Arabs), and the Caucasus. Since the Caucasus is always a strategically important region from many perspectives, it was also a contested space between the Ottomans and Safavids. From the very beginning, Ottomans and Safavids were trying to control the Caucasus and constantly battling for the upper hand over the other. By focusing on the Ottoman-Safavid competition over the Transcaucasia in the period from 1603 to the mid-seventeenth century, this article examines the politics of these two empires in this competition with a special emphasis on the role of local actors in this conflict, particularly the maneuvers of Georgian groups.
