The Safavid dynasty maintained control of Iran, although sometimes only tenuously, until the Ghilzai Afghans invaded the country in 1722. The Afghan invasion was short-lived, but it opened the door of opportunity for Nadir Quli Afshar, the chief of the Turkman Afshar tribe and a highly skilled military commander under the Safavid emperor Shah Tahmasp II (r. 1722–32). By 1727 Nadir had ejected the Afghans from Iran and less than a decade later he assumed the title ‘Shah’ for himself, ruling as Nadir Shah from 1736 until he was assassinated by a group of tribal chiefs in 1747.
