Aratta was an ancient state formation of renown somewhere in the Middle East (or eastwards), ca. 2500-2100 BC. It is mentioned in the oldest Sumerian legends, particularly "Enmerkar and the Lord of Aratta", as being a wealthy, mountainous, up-river country ruled by a king called Ensuh-keshdanna, who is engaged in competition with Enmerkar, ruler of Uruk. It was also a source of silver, gold and lapis lazuli.[1] The goddess Inanna is said to have transferred her allegiance as consort, from Aratta to Uruk, playing a role something like that of a kingmaker.

The Safavids (Persian: صفویان) were a native Iranian dynasty from Iranian Azarbaijan that ruled from 1501 to 1736, and which established Shi'a Islam as Iran's official religion and united its provinces under a single Iranian sovereignty, thereby reigniting the Persian identity and acting as a bridge to modern Iran.
