The Safavid dynasty came to power with the help of the Turkic Ghazalbash of Asia Minor, but with the passage of time, non-Turkish clans were also able to play a role in the new political system. Meanwhile, some Kurdish clans were noticed by the Safavid kings. The present study examines the history of the presence and residence of the Chegini Kurdish tribe in some areas of Khorasan; That is, the area that was not the main residence of the Kurdish people. Contrary to what is often thought, the presence of Kurds in parts of Khorasan region is not limited to the reign of Shah Abbas I (1038-996 AH), but before that, some Kurdish clans had migrated to Khorasan, which until now has received less attention. has been The current research is trying to look at the roots of the migration of Chegini Kurdish tribe and the quality of their presence in the political and social levels of Khorasan during the Safavid era. The results of this research indicate that there is a significant relationship between the role of the Cheginis in power and their reflection in the field of historical writings, so that during the period of lack of power, the name of the clan is rarely seen in the sources, and during the peak of Cheginis power We often see their presence in historical sources, and therefore, the presence and absence of a tribe in its sources can indicate historical developments..

Examining the relations between tribes and tribes is one of the important topics of Iranian history. This issue is more important in the Safavid period, especially in the western regions of Iran, due to the hostile relations with the Ottoman government. In this article, the activism of two Kurdish clans of this region, namely Ardalan and Zanganeh, has been analyzed analytically in regional, national and inter-territorial developments. What are the main components of their internal relations (with each other) and external relations (with the central government of Iran and the Ottoman Empire) and what has been the impact of these relations on regional developments? In this research, it is descriptive-analytical and by referring to the main sources, especially local Kurdish and Persian sources, focusing on the research question, extracting historical data, and after measuring and evaluating the content, it is set with an analytical approach.The results of the research show that during the Safavid era, the mentioned clans, especially the Ardalan clan, which had the sovereignty of the Kurdistan states, were among the political and military activists in the west of the country and gained great importance. In this period, on the one hand, with the type of relations they established with the Safavid government and on the other hand, due to the constant conflicts they had with each other, they created the ground for the emergence of annexation unrest in the states of Kurdistan and Kermanshahs, which sometimes attacked the central government as well. had faced challenges. At the end of the Safavid government, the internal weakness of the Ardalan clan and the forced dispersion of people from the Zanganeh clan in different regions of Iran by the order of the Safavid kings, gradually led them to avoid conflict and desire to interact with each other.

Expatriating social centrifugal forces tribes and clans, has been one of the policies of Iranian governments from the Safavid era with the aim of establishing security and controlling on them. Displacement Kurdish clans from their original habitat to other parts of country has been recognized as one of the critical periods in the history of Safavid era. In the line with this policy, the Kurdish"Rashvand" clans, were expatriated, first to Khorasan Province then to Qazvin and its nearby habitats. The consequences of this settlement in those aforementioned areas to both Kurdish clans as well as the central government is the subject of this study. Alongside with this, in this study, we will also analyze the political, martial and economic causes and motivations of these migrants. This paper analyzes the subject in a descriptive-analytical manner, based on documentary sources including published documents, unpublished documents, library resources and field observations. Research findings show that Rashvand clans were migrated to Qazvin and the nearby habitat areas for diverse reasons, namely for martial, political and economic reasons. Accumulating wealth, acquisition of governmental authority and official titles, have been the most important consequences of this displacement.
