Findings point to the region's political geography, the Ardalans who were protégés of the Safavid kings, heavy dependence on the Safavid rulers and their successors, weak national sentiment and Kurdish nationalism, and finally the religion of some rulers of Ardalan they are the most important reasons for the inclination of poets to the Persian language and poetry from the  beginning of the eleventh century until the fall of the monarchy.
