line of rulers from same family
By 750 CE, the Muslim Empire had spread
throughout Arabia, across Northern Africa,
and into southern Europe (Spain)
The political unity of the Muslim Empire soon
dissolved and various dynasties (lines of
leaders) arose throughout their territories:
Abassids (leaders descended from Abbas, one
of Muhammad's uncles) wrested power from
the Umayyads in 750 CE and led from
Baghdad
Umayyads fled and began a new caliphate
(government) in Cordoba, Spain.
Fatimids (leaders descended from Fatimah,
Muhammad's daughter) led from Cairo, Egypt.
New Muslim Empires
By 1453 the Ottoman Turks (Sunni Muslims)
had conquered Constantinople, bringing the
Byzantine Empire to an end.
The Safavid Empire (Shi'a Muslims)
stopped the eastern expansion of the
Ottomans brought Muslim rule to Persia for
over 200 years.

India from 1526 until after 1700
