jan 5, 747 - Abbasid Revolution

Description:

The Abbasid Revolution saw the overthrow of the Umayyad Caliphate and the establishment of the Abbasid Caliphate. Led by Abu Muslim, the revolutionaries capitalized on widespread dissatisfaction with Umayyad rule, including grievances over perceived corruption and nepotism. The revolution culminates in the decisive Battle of the Zab (750), where the Umayyad forces are defeated. The Abbasid Caliphate’s rise signifies a major shift in the Islamic world, with the new rulers moving the capital from Damascus to Baghdad.
