Answer 1

The Safavid government resembled that of the Ottomans in the following ways:

• centralized power
• imposed Islam as the state religion
• relied on a strong military

The statements about providing a secular system of law and taxing Muslims and non-Muslims equally do not apply to the Safavid or Ottoman governments in the same way.
