The Fotuhat-e shahi (Persian: فتوحات شاهی, romanized: Royal Victories/Conquests) is a Persian historical chronicle composed by Amini Haravi in 1531 in Safavid Iran.[1][2] It is considered to be the first Safavid chronicle.[3] Despite being intended as a universal history, it mainly emphasizes on the life of Shah Ismail I (r. 1501–1524), with the story abruptly concluding in the start of 1514.[4]
