Summary/Abstract: The formation of the Iranian approach/mentality in the modern period and their attitude towards the “Turks”, who was chosen as one of the two main othernesses of Iranian nationalism, is the subject of this research. This research examines the historical roots of Iranianism, the three Qadisiyah, Chaldirani, and Crusader-Racial mentalities, and how these three discourses occasionally cooperate. From the Safavid period, Westerners enter the rivalry between Ottoman Turks and Safavid Turks as military advisers, and this entry manifests itself in a more complex and conscious way, in modern historiography. Finally, modern Iran emerges from these collaborations and conflicts.
