The Safavid dynasty (Persian: سلسلهٔ صفويان; Azerbaijani: صفویلر) was one of the most significant ruling dynasties of Iran. They ruled one of the greatest Persian empires since the Muslim conquest of Persia and established the Twelver school of Shi'a Islam as the official religion of their empire, marking one of the most important turning points in Muslim history. The Safavids ruled from 1501 to 1722 (experiencing a brief restoration from 1729 to 1736) and at their height, they controlled all of modern Islamic Republic of Iran, Republic of Azerbaijan and Republic of Armenia, most of Iraq, Georgia, Afghanistan, and the Caucasus, as well as parts of Pakistan, Turkmenistan and Turkey. Safavid Iran was one of the Islamic "gunpowder empires", along with its neighbours, the Ottoman and Mughal empires.
The Safavid dynasty had its origin in the Safaviyya Sufi order, which was established in the city of Ardabil in the Azerbaijan region. It was of mixed ancestry (Azerbaijani,Kurdish and Turkmen, which included intermarriages with Georgian and Pontic Greek dignitaries). From their base in Ardabil, the Safavids established control over all of Greater Iran and reasserted the Iranian identity of the region, thus becoming the first native dynasty since the Sassanid Empire to establish a unified Iranian state.

There's bite marks on my dick
Beat you up and fuck your butt
Give me AIDS- fuck me

Give me AIDS- yeah yeah
There's bite marks on my dick
Shooting up drugs is the life for me
I've got my HIV Give me AIDS- fuck me
I just wanna get laid
Give me AIDS- yeah yeah
your eyes are nothing, I've looked deep knowing I was safe
and this memory will never be erased, never be erased
you put me in my place
I would have liked a call
One head light's out
outside of you calling out my faults
I would have liked to settle this
once and for all, once and for all
would you have me crawl
and this memory, it will never fade
and this memory, it will never fade, never fade
you can cry in this bed alone
I won't cry with you anymore
You can lay in this grave you made
I won't lie with you anymore
No, it will never be erased
