Ummayad perhaps (except in Iberia), that's why they get removed very fast.(except in Iberia again)
Abbasid are the best model of governance in the islamic world, if not in the whole world, and perhaps in the whole pre-modern era.

An opressive regime doesn't last 7 centuries.

I said less than 100 years, it's not even 90, and historically no it's not a long time. And the Umayyads in Cordoba adopted a total different attitude than the ones of Damascus. Same family, completely different empire.

>Abbasid isn't a meme, it was one of the greatest empire for more than 500 years.
Only Rome reached this level.

It didn't even rule for 200 before losing de facto most of his land and getting keked by persian shi'ites. Then it spent all his history keked by different turkic powers.

>>278798
You obviously don't know anything about the processus of arabication of the levant, and of north africa.
Both are unrelated to islam, or at least islamic expansion.

First of all, levant, was already a semitic speaker area, aramaic etc. were close to arab, and arabian tribes migrated to levant, cham etc. centuries before islam and started to mix and arabize the other way before

About north africa it's even more complex, there was nearly any arab speaker outside of Kairouan/Ifriqia until the 11th and the banu hilal migraiton, were aren't a molitary invasion per se.
Most of the arabization was made under native dynasties (almoravid, almohad, zayanid, hafsid etc..). And most important, the big part of arabization was made under colonial by european.

Seljukid recognized the Abbasid rule, they were their vassal.
Mamelouk were ruling on the behalf of the Abbasid sultan, and many had a de facto power until the 16th.
The religious influence of the Caliphe was always relevant.

Im curious about all this in a religious context.

How exactly were people divided by sunni/shiite/etc.. sects? Was it adopted by rulers or spread by specific schools and preachers? Was it a passed down the family sort of thing?

Why did sunnies end up being the most numerous and why did the shiites end up mostly in Iran and my corner kebap shop?

Literally false. That's only protestants and not even all of them. Spain wasn't given 90% of the Americas for no reason, it was theirs because they were there to convert everyone to catholicism. For Spain (not judging individuals here, unless you're gonna claim no arab joined the conquest for money) conversion was prioritary over profit. More then once the catholic preachers arrived where the civil authorities did not.

So were the Muslims able to set up this empire in such a short time due to numbers or military prowess?

I know that Muslim bueracracy was fairlt advanced for its time under the Abbasids.

Look up White Man's Burden.
Europeans believed it is their holy task, given to them by God, to convert the "savages" of Africa and the Americas to Christianity.

That's not exactly how it works. They only need to convince a small amount of people join them in order to sustain their occupation and attacks. I'm not sure what larger cultural war you might be referring to. If you're just talking about the minority of people (thousands) who are going there, there hasn't really been much of a cultural effort to oppose ISIS's propoganda. If there has, I haven't noticed.

Oh look, a probably Western guy telling me how tolerant the Ottomans were.
Well, let me blow your mind: for the most of time, Ottomans barely controlled their lands.
I just say ''Ottomans'' because it was Ottoman state. However Sultan and Ottoman family didn't really micromanage their empire.
On the provincial level, local Muslim power holders simply paid taxes to Sultan and sent troops. Sometimes they didn't even do that.
On the provincial level, abuses of authority by Muslims were great, forcing many people to run off, become brigands, or revolt against Ottoman rule. Central government simply didn't care, or couldn't care.
In some cases, conversion was forced too. Most of the time it was PRACTICALLY forced since if you weren't Muslim you'd literally starve or become a slave. In some cases it was restricted, because Christians paid more taxes.
Now, sure, these weren't even Turks but mostly Balkan converts, however point is Muslim rule in Balkans was anything but peaceful and prosperous. There's a good reason why, despite the fact there are some exaggerations, overwhelming majority of Christians in Balkans (and some Muslims too) consider Ottoman empire to be a total disaster which cost us several centuries during which Europe advanced while we were almost cut off.
