Abstract	:	In 1599, two English brothers, sons of a lesser noble family on the outs with the court of Queen Elizabeth I, took a voyage to the court of Shah Abbas I. Under the patronage of the Earl of Essex, Sir Anthony and Robert Sherley made their way through the Islamic territory of the Ottoman Turkish Empire into the Safavid Persian Empire. A decade later, Sir Anthony returned to Christian Europe, followed by his brother Robert a few years after, now acting as an agent of a Muslim ruler, ostensibly to improve trade relations between Persia and Europe, circumventing the Ottoman Empire who had been acting as middle man for goods coming out of Persia up until the sixteenth century.
