This video discusses the expansion of Islam, focusing on how preferential treatment of Muslims by the former Roman and Persian empires helped encourage conversions to the new faith. The video also covers the history of the omeyas, a powerful family of Arabs who rose to power in the late 6th century AD and were instrumental in the centralization of government in Damascus. The omeyas were also responsible for the introduction of Sharia law into the empire and for expanding Muslim territory into North Africa and Europe. Their reign marked the peak of Islamic power and was followed by a period of decline and ultimately by the collapse of the empire in the 11th century.
