The city of Tabriz in northwestern Iran is strategically located as a center of trade routes (Doc 5). The trade routes that were taken stretched over a great distance and had very complex system (Doc 6). Muslim Holy cities were placed as far north as Edirne and as far south as Mecca (Doc 7). Though all this Caliph Abs al Malik forbade anyone from Syria to make the pilgrimage to Mecca (Doc 8). This was due to him not wanting to be forced to pay allegiance to his rival Abdullah ibn Zubayr.

Expansion of the Muslim Empire The Muslim empire expanded vastly from 622 CE to 750 CE. This empire could be compared to the Holy Roman Empire, one of the greatest in the world. There are three main reasons to explain how the Muslim empire reached its height: battling for land, signing peace treaties, and granting stipends. Every Muslim who was in the military fought against other civilizations for land. After that, they made an agreement, or a peace treaty, with the people of the land they conquered.

"Between 1453 and 1526 Muslims founded three major states in the Mediterranean, Iran, and South Asia: respectively the Ottoman, Safavid, and Mughal empire" (Dale 1). Everyone knows the Mediterranean, Iran, and South Asia because of modernization and technology. These regions are seen in newspapers and television for their current status, but not a lot of people have ever considered how they were back in the 15th century. The majority of our generation knows Istanbul, but what about Constantinople? The 15th century was the Gunpowder Empires era in which three major empires ruled the Mediterranean, Iran, and South Asia: Ottoman, Safavid, and Mughal. Even though the Mughals were not as successful as the Ottomans, they both share similarities in
In the sixth century B.C, the land that we now call Iran was the center of the largest empire in the world. The kings of Ancient Persia( such as Cyrus the Great) were the leaders of a great civilization that made amazing advances in laws, goverment and communication. Founded in 550 B.C by King Cyrus the Great, the Persian Empire spanned from Egypt in the west to Turkey in the north, and through Mesopotamia to the Indus River in the east. Unlike most empires at that time, the Persian kings were benovelent rulers, and allowed a diverse variety of diffrent people with diffrent ethnic backgrounds. The Persian empire was split into three diffrent empires with three diffrent time periods but the first empire was called the Achaemenid Empire. It began with King Cyrus the Great and ended with King Darius III.
The Abbasids tried to manipulate Islamic law by trying to either avoid it or find a way around it to get what they want. The Abbasids called themselves the rightful rulers of the Muslim world because they were descendants of Ali, whom had transferred the right to rule, to them. This gave them more power than anyone else, because they thought of themselves as the chosen ones. Therefore, they did anything they wanted, which included avoiding some laws or finding solutions to get what they want quickly. We know that the caliph wanted/desired a particular girl but he could not have her because she was still owned by Jafar, so the qadi who is Abu Yusuf found a way to marry the girl to a slave man who then would divorce her and give her to the caliphate.
The Safavid dynasty lived from the late 15th century until the mid-18th century, and the first three shahs (ruler)
I woke up this morning under the impression I would go to work and have a normal boring day at work. I grabbed my history journal and novelty star wars pen and forced myself to walk out of the door and leave my house, then as soon as I left my apartment the hall began to spin. I was then transported to a strange, barren, desert like field. I could tell I wasn’t in 2016 anymore. The terrain was noticeable it was in Iraq, where there was an ongoing battle between what looked like the Ottoman Empire and Safavid Brotherhood (Shahbaz). I soon realized this was my chance to witness history first hand and began this diary.
The introduction to Persepolis gives a great deal of background information to the unrest in Iran leading up to the Islamic revolution. Iran had been in a state of unrest for “2500 years” (page11). Iran was ruled by foreign nations and exploited by the western world for its rich expanses of oil. In 1951 the prime minister of Iran tried to take back his country’s wealth by nationalizing

Arabian III is a painting, created by Margaret Keane in 2005, which depicts the head of an Arabian horse. This alone makes it quite unique from many of her earlier artworks, or other works in general, which typically feature women and children. One aspect that remains, and will likely remain until the end of Keane’s career as an artist, are her signature Keane Eyes.

The Great Shah Abbas I reigned from 1588-1629. He was a ruler who relocated the capital from Saljuq to Isfahan, in the center of the country.
