do azeri see themselves as descendents of ottomans or Safavids?

Why should they see themselves as descendents of Ottomans ?

 

[ASQ-1918]

do azeri see themselves as descendents of ottomans or Safavids?

The question should be "which one do you associate yourself with"?

We of course associate ourselves with Safavids, but not because of their ideology. I would perhaps say that it's not even about Safavids but more about the personality of Shah Ismail Khatai, first and foremost because of how much emphasis he put on Azerbaijani language.
