阿拉伯帝国兴衰史与唐朝对比历史人物的物品场景

一、阿拉伯帝国兴衰史

1.帝国建立

狭义的阿拉伯民族是指源于沙漠和半沙漠地带的游牧民族,不论是根据《圣经》和《古兰经》的记载,都认为他们与犹太人有血缘关系,语言分类中也同属于闪含语系。原来都是一些分散在半岛中的以家族为基础的部落。

从6世纪后半叶开始,由于埃及混乱以及拜占廷和波斯之间连年战争,使得原先波斯湾-红海-尼罗河商路无法通行,商人们改走更为安全的陆路。地处商路中段,东到波斯湾,西至红海,北往叙利亚,南通也门的交通枢纽,商业城市麦加因此而变得繁荣起来。

穆斯林认为是在公元610年开始伊斯兰教先知穆罕默德开始奉真主之命传播伊斯兰教。随着传教逐渐公开,对穆罕默德进行了多次攻击。

2.神权共和

阿拉伯帝国形成之后,以哈里发们为了巩固统治并满足需求掀起长达百余年的扩张运动。在鹰旗旗帜下,沙漠中的游牧民族崛起于拜占庭和波斯边疆,他们不断扩张,在极盛时期达1340万平方公里的地跨亚、欧、非三洲封建军事帝国。

3.倭马亚王朝

661年,与哈里发政权相争反复的一方——穆阿维叶即位哈里发,以大马士革为首都建立了倭马亚王朝,他将哈里发改为世袭实际上成为了君主,但引起部分学者不满。
