Vali dynasty

The Solvizi family, also known as the Vali dynasty, the Valis of Luristan (Persian: والیان لرستان), later the Valis of Posht-e-Kuh (والیان پشت‌کوه), or the Feyli Valis (والیان فیلی), were an Iranian Lur dynasty of Arab origin, which traditionally ruled over Lorestan from 1597 to 1928. It came to power after replacing the Khorshidi dynasty, another Lur dynasty. The Vali dynasty ruled for over 330 years and was one of the longest local dynasties in Iranian history.
