Dustin Hux 10/19/10 The Umayyad and Abbasid Empires In Arabia?s history, many empires have taken over and have later been overthrown by another empire but the two that stand out the most are the Umayyad and the Abbasid empires. They were both great in many ways, some equally similar but some very different. Both the empires were similar in their overall religious beliefs and the greatness of their armies but were different in their views on Islamic converts and their political and religious centers.
