History of the Middle East (set of 3 Volumes)
by Ha Quan'an
About This Novel
The Middle East is located in the core area of the Asian, African and European continents and has a long historical tradition and profound civilization accumulation. The birth of Islam in the early 7th century AD opened a new chapter in the history of the Middle East. The Arabs quietly emerged in the vast desert sea that seemed to have been forgotten by the noisy civilized world. As a ruling nation, they stepped onto the vast historical stage of the Middle East. Persians, Turks, Berbers and Kurds also joined the ranks of Muslims one after another. The Mongolian cavalry from the East once swept across West Asia, and the Arab Empire was shattered, but it gave rise to the sudden rise of the Ottoman Empire, which carried the traditions of Islamic civilization and the historical heritage of the Arab Empire for more than 600 years, until it came to an end under the encroachment and carving up of Western powers. In the 20th century, many emerging sovereign states sprouted and grew on the ruins of the Ottoman Empire, and the ancient Persian civilization came to life after thousands of years of ups and downs. Facing the dawn of the new century, the Middle East has finally embarked on the historical journey of modernization, but the historical road will never be smooth...

The Middle East has an important geographical location and is known as the "land of three continents and five seas". It connects the Atlantic and Indian Oceans and is the link and crossroads between the East and the West. It is the golden bridge connecting Eastern and Western civilizations and the source of Western civilization.
Any new local power seeking to dominate the Middle East must control Syria at its core. Although geographically Syria includes Lebanon, Israel and Jordan, the Syrian Republic, with its borders cut off, has become an arena for international disputes. France and Britain fought for control of geographical Syria between the two world wars, while the United States and the Soviet Union competed for Syria's support during the Cold War.
On the ruins of the Mongol cavalry, the Ottoman Turks suddenly emerged, siege cities and territories in Asia Minor and the Balkans, captured the thousand-year-old capital of the Byzantine Empire, Constantinople, and surrendered the Arabs from the Maghreb in the west to the western foothills of the Zagros Mountains in the east. After the Arab Empire, the Ottoman Empire once again dominated the central zone of the Asian, European and African continents, inheriting the fire of faith ignited by the Prophet Muhammad and the civilizational heritage of the Arab Empire.
