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...
