"Persia Sive Sophorum Regnum" is a Latin title that translates to "Persia, or the Kingdom of the Safavids." It refers to a historic map of Persia (modern-day Iran) created by the renowned Dutch cartographer Willem Janszoon Blaeu in 1634. 

The map "Persia Sive Sophorum Regnum" was part of Blaeu's atlas "Theatrum Orbis Terrarum," which was one of the most significant atlases of its time. The atlas contained maps of various regions of the world, and each map was meticulously crafted with intricate details, including geographical features, cities, landmarks, and decorative elements. Blaeu's maps were known for their aesthetic beauty as well as their cartographic precision.

Willem Janszoon Blaeu (1571–1638) was a Dutch cartographer, astronomer, and publisher. He is known for his significant contributions to the field of cartography during the Dutch Golden Age. Blaeu was born in Alkmaar, Netherlands, and he established himself as one of the leading mapmakers of his time. 

Willem Janszoon Blaeu passed away in 1638, and his son Joan Blaeu continued the family's cartographic legacy. The Blaeu family's maps and atlases remain important historical artifacts, showcasing the advancements in mapmaking and the exploration of the world during the Age of Discovery.
