I want to know the answer to the following question:
In what year did Sultan Selim I order the massacre of 40,000 people whom he considered heretics?
All the background I'm provided with is that "In 1514, Sultan Selim I, nicknamed "the Grim" because of his cruelty, ordered the massacre of 40,000 Anatolian Alevis (Qizilbash), whom he considered heretics, reportedly proclaiming that "the killing of one Alevi had as much otherworldly reward as killing 70 Christians."[page needed]". Is that enough to answer the question?
Answer: yes
