The Khorshidi dynasty, Abbasi dynasty or Shahs of Little Lorestan (1184–1597) was a Lur dynasty[1] that ruled Little Lorestan in the later Middle Ages from their capital Khorramabad.[2]
They were neighbours of the Hazaraspids who ruled over Greater Lorestan.[2] While the Hazaraspids were more politically important because of their vast territory and the fact that they held major communications routes, the Khorsidi dynasty would become a significant power during the Safavid era due to the end of the Hazaraspids. The Khorsidi dynasty remained an important player in the rivalry between the Safavids and the Ottomans.[3]
