As shown in figure I1, the population of the Arab peoples during the period under consideration was about 100 million. In this period, Muslim peoples began to spread through the Arab lands and conquer the world. Before, Arabs were mainly traders and nomadic shepherds. Their primary languages were Persian and spoken in the regions of modern Afghanistan, Iran and Central Asia. During this period, tribes from Arabia changed the political identity of the Arab peoples and nationalized the whole of the Arab world as a community in a political way. The region of the former Persian Empire, between the Tigris and the Euphrates rivers, was the first to be conquered. The conquest of the Arab peoples started from the west by one of their greatest dynasties, the Omayyad, which was the third dynasty of the Umayyad Dynasty. The first conquest of the Arab peoples came in year 644. After the Battle of Qadisiyya in 646, Mu'awiya I, the governor of Syria, became the first caliph of the Umayyad Dynasty. A year later, Yazid I was established as the successor of Mu'awiya I. The caliphate of Yazid I was the second conquest of the Arab peoples. A year after the death of Yazid I, Ali ibn Husayn, grandson of the Prophet, came as the third caliph and the second reign of the Umayyads. Ali was killed by a coup staged by the Arabs in the city of Karbala in year 680 and thus was the fourth caliph of the Umayyad dynasty. Harsh and ruthless, the Umayyads ended their reign by massacring an estimated one million Iranian Zoroastrians and Christians in year 680. Within four be359ba680
