Over the years, the enormity of the Arab Empire proved difficult to control from Baghdad. Rival political and religious factions wrestled for control to escape the dominance of the Abbasids. Persian Buyids, Turkish tribes newly converted to Islam, rival Muslim Islamic sects and Christian Crusaders descended upon the Abbasids.
In 1055 Seljuk Turks conquered Baghdad but left the Abbasids as rulers. The Christian Crusaders from Europe recaptured the holy city of Jerusalem in 1099, stolen from the Christians by the Arabs almost three centuries earlier. More ominously, a threat from the East that would shatter almost every civilization in the world appeared. The powerful and seemingly unbeatable Mongols surged into Abbasid territory. In 1221 the Great Khan, leader of the Mongol armies, ordered the invasion and destruction of Abbasid Persia. His order was achieved with great ferocity.

In 1258, the Mongol Khan Hulagu seized and destroyed Baghdad and the Abbasid dynasty collapsed completely. This timeframe recognizes the end of the Arab Empire. From 1258 onwards, Islam and Arab culture, knowledge and influence would continue to grow but under new Muslim rulers. Eventually the Ottoman Turks would control most of the Muslim world and the Ottoman Caliph would rule from Constantinople in Turkey until 1918.
