Summary/Abstract: The Seljuk Empire expanded its borders to Syria and Anatolia after being established in Iranian geography. They conquered the eastern and western regions of Iran and conquered in Sassanid times and were even more successful. The Seljuks formed the provinces by subjecting the lands in the conquered geography to administrative divisions. This administrative division is similar to the Sasanites, who ruled first in this region. The Seljuk State is not only similar to the Sassanid state boundaries in terms of eastern and western conquests and boundaries, the boundaries reached by the southern Iran and the Persian Gulf are also similar. The politics of the two governments is not similar, but the order of the regular armies that perform the conclusion is similar. When we examine military organizations attentively, we can see that both political powers have formed similar military regimes in the same geographical region and that similar achievements have been gained. The Great Seljuk State, after examining what the Sassanid State has done to become a great state in Iran's geography, has benefited from their military presence. Our aim in this article is to show this similarity.
