The Mughal Empire, which existed from 1526 to 1857, was mainly located in the Indian subcontinent, covering areas that are now parts of present-day India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, and Afghanistan. At its height, it extended over almost the entire Indian subcontinent, spanning an area of around 4 million square kilometers.

On the other hand, the Safavid Empire, which lasted from 1501 to 1736, was centered in Persia, modern-day Iran. It encompassed territories in Iran, Iraq, Azerbaijan, Armenia, and parts of Georgia, Turkey, and Afghanistan. The empire had a significant influence in the region and played a crucial role in shaping the culture and politics of Persia.

Overall, the Mughal Empire had a broader geographic extent, reaching further into South Asia, while the Safavid Empire exerted its influence primarily in Persia and its neighboring territories.
