29 dic 661 anni - Capital Moved to Damascus
Descrizione:
When the Umayyads took over the empire from the 4 caliphs, they moved the capital from Mecca to Damascus. This movement showed that the religious aspect of the empire was beginning to take a backseat to the political and economical aspects, and this empire was becoming something other than a religious empire.
