Note: Hormozgān is connected to the southwestern region of Sistan-e Baluchestan and is in the south of Kermān and Fārs. The province was named after Hormuz, an 8th century CE ruler. The capital, Bandar ʻAbbās, was founded by Abbās I, the first king of the Safavid dynasty (1501-1732). In 1793, Hormozgān was ruled by Sulṭān of Muscat of Oman; his rule over the area continued until 1868. Later, the region was under the control of the South Persia Rifles, which was organized by Major Percy Sykes as a move against the Russians during Russian-British rivalry in World War I. |
