History
See: History of the Middle East and Ottoman Arabia
The history of the areas of the Arab state- is claimed to host the oldest written civilizations of the world- as is promoted by Imperial British schools. Interest in the "Old East" from antiquity has been turned into a massive cultural-tourist industry. From the rise of river valley societies as Mesopotamia modern Arab lands hosted mighty Iron Age civilization the rise of Islam. The Omayyad and Abbasid caliphates brought a diaspora of Arab peoples across the Near-East which inspired the boundaries of the modern Arab state.
After classical Arab Islam was disrupted by Crusaders, Mongols and Turks the majority of Arab speaking lands in Asia came under the governance of the Ottoman Empire. Turkish authority rose and waned but was primarily concerned with the maintenance of trade routes for pilgrimage to Mecca from the Turkish heartland. Local Arab families vied in intrigue for prestigious titles in relation to Ottoman power. The rapid decline of the Ottoman Empire, caused by a succession of lost wars to Russia opened the door to western influence.
