11:56 A small correction: Amir al-Umara meant something like "king of kings" or "commander of commanders." During the early 10th century, the Caliph's authority as both the religious and the worldly leader of all Muslims was halved, reducing the Caliph to only a religious leader who passed his duty as the worldly leader of all Muslims to another person (usually a military commander) who was then titled _Amir al-Umara._

[@omaraboal-azm8705]

The caliph didn't really has much to say on religious matters especially after the mihna period 833-851 which began because al-Ma'mun tried to take Supreme authority on religious matters from the Ulema which failed and sunni Islam is very decentralized in religious leadership there's no Supreme head like the pope or a patriarch but there is scholars who produced legal opinions or fatwas and there's jurists who judge between people and are usually appointed by the head of a city to see into people's problems but caliphs are the Supreme governing leaders or "secular leaders" for the most part

[@houseofwisdom798]

basically greek work was basically a great element but not the biggest, the knowledge acquired from Persia, india, china. and to the Muslims credit they've always credited the greeks, persians, indians for whatever improvement. That wasn't the attitude of Europeans post Muslim Spain and the Levant campaigns (you see European intellectuals like Decart, adam smith, and others) using Ibn khaldoun and ibn hytham work without quoting them. Europeans made us feel as if they woke up in the 16th century and recovered intellectually in a blink of eye. A lot of what europeans said they first discovered in 18th century was already taught in the "golden age" for example the scientific method. not saying the west contribution wasn't profound in the past and recent days but as greek/romans took the credit of all eygptian work the did it to other cultures as well.

Such a great video, this one is! I love it! Ever since I've been diving into the history about the relations between the Roman Empire and the Abbasid Caliphate, I always wanted to see a video about such a topic! So thank you, Kings and Generals, for making this wish come true! Also, why the story about the Roman envoy named Tarath who went to congratulate Caliph al-Mahdi in Baghdad for his ascension as the new Caliph on behalf of Emperor Constantine V is not part of this video? P.S: I swear! Every time I saw the Roman Empire is about to make a come back, something like migrating tribes must happened and ruin everything! When the Germanic tribes migrated down south and become the foederati for the Roman Empire, it eventually led to the Western Roman Empire's territories to be carved into pieces and ruled by these Germanic tribal chiefs that proclaimed themselves as the Kings who ruled these lands on behalf of the Roman Augustus in Constatninople. And when the Seljuk Turks immigrated into the Middle East and Anatolia, it eventually led to the Roman Empire losing Anatolia with the Islamic powers in the Middle East being conquered on the way as well.

King and generals often engage in extensive discussions regarding the cultural and territorial transformations of Turks, Arabs, and Persians. However, they have consistently overlooked the Kurds during these periods of change. It would be highly intriguing to witness a dedicated episode exploring the Kurds, their historical territories like the Sadakiyans, Daysam, Shaddadids, Rawadids, Marwanids, Ayyubids, Principality of Bitlis, Mukriyan etc... and the reasons behind their integration with the other powers around and subsequent developments.

[@zippyparakeet1074]

As already said, most of their Navy was built up and composed of Romans and Christians from the formerly Roman provinces of Egypt and the Levant. It's also why the second siege of Constantinople failed because the Coptic Christian Egyptian sailors- a vast majority of the Arab Navy- mutinied refusing to invade the Holy city of Constantinople. During those times Constantinople was considered the holiest among the pentarchy of Jerusalem, Alexandria, Antioch and Rome.

The Ancient greeks and romans (roman kingdoms, republic, and empire) of classical antiquity 800 bce to 457ad (and beyond) are more closely related to the middle eastern civilizations and cultures than they are to the rest of Europe (its common sense really, look at the spread of world civilization timeline and its focal point spreading outward), and not only in culture and fellow civilization creators and influencers but also in ethnic background (mediterranean peoples, ancient greeks and romans are a big majority of Anatolian neolithic farmer dna profile, an ethnicity originating with the rest of the east mediterranean at the time, on the fertile crescent, arabic is the same with natufian).

One thing about Eastern Roman history is that, due to how they spread and how many of their major cities are natural commerce hubs around the Med, every major rival in the region was also a major trading partner. You often had the border areas trading quite cordially during wars before the clashing armies arrived (and often even when they did during the lulls in the fighting).

@@KingsandGenerals They’re pretty Capable of creating art contrary to history just like all AI generated art that can’t even depict classical Romans properly. Seems pretty suspect to intentionally create art that goes against the depictions in real historical medieval art and old K&G videos in a meme pose that looks generated even to the untrained eye.
