Abstract

The fall of the Safavid dynasty by the Afghans in 1137 AH / 1725 AD was the consequence of a series of intertwined crises leading to the collapse of the Iranian political, economic and social system, as well as the loss of security and the emergence of new claimants to power. Among these nascent claimants was Nader Gholi, the next Nader Shah, who was surprisingly able to seize power while overcoming other claimants. Close to Tahmaseb II of Safavid dynasty, Nader confronted his most well-known enemies: Ashraf Afghan, who controlled Isfahan, and the Ottoman Empire, which was able to conquer significant parts of Iran. The main question of this study is what was the determining factor of Nader's success in gaining power after a short time he joined the Safavid Tahmasb II, the expulsion of the Afghans from Iran, and finally taking over the royal position? The research method of the article is descriptive-analytical using authoritative historical books of that period. Findings of research on Nader's Military Strategy indicated his tireless efforts to create and equip a ready-made army based on Nader's presence to pave the way for the realization of his political strategy of gaining power. In addition, Nader sought to defeat his enemies, especially the Afghans, with his unparalleled command and the use of various military tactics, such as the element of surprise, siege and trapping.
