Years: 532 - 675
The achievements of Islam are great and various, but after 656 these achievements cease to be controlled from Arabia.
The Muslim world is split after the third caliph, Uthman, is assassinated in 656, and the fourth caliph, Ali (murdered in 660) spends much of his time in Iraq.
After Ali, the Umayyads establish a hereditary line of caliphs in Damascus.
