How did the greatest empire on Earth lose to Muzzies in 20 years?
>>215389507You should know yourself since 300 million indians got buckbroken by 20000 britbongs.
>>215389569it took muzzies 700 years and europoors 200+ years to take control of us
>>215389507I feel like there is a great deal of "unspoken" history about the Arab conquest of the Middle East/Africahistory books just gloss over it like it's totally normal that centuries-long world's most advanced civilizations adopt a foreign religion and language with no sign of resistance, completely erasing and forgetting about their earlier cultural heritageEgypt was the global centre of science, philosophy and most importantly - Christianity - around the time the Arabs came. 50 years passed and suddenly Egypt is completely arabized and islamized as if Christianity was never anything more than a small marginalized sect followed by the poorest part of the population. Not even Europeans conquering the Americas, where the civilizational gap was much greater in favor of Europeans, managed to impose their culture so fast and to such degree like the Arabs could. Yet we don't even know the details of this assimilation process going on under Arab rule, almost as if it was the most normal thing to happen. Weird.
>>215389691peegypt is a literal doormatthey surrender the second an army shows up at their door
>>215389569Bodied that jeet
>>215389569kek
>>215389772bro, it was the same everywhere up to Al-Andalus, it's not really about Egyptians per se, I just gave an example
>>215389691>50 years passed and suddenly Egypt is completely arabized and islamized as if Christianity was never anything more than a small marginalized sectThis is wrong thoughbeit, Egypt was majority Christian for centuries afterwards. Islamists downplay that aspect, same with Iberia.

>>215389691>50 years passed and suddenly Egypt is completely arabized and islamized as if Christianity was never anything more than a small marginalized sect followed by the poorest part of the population.nigga what the fuck are you talking about? it took until the 1200s and 1300s for Islam to become the majority in Egypt, and Christians continued to thrive for centuries and still exist in Egypt and the Levant, where they were often rich merchants or administrators. They still had influential nobility for a long time
>>215389691Egypt was majority Christian and Coptic speaking until Black Death it were Mamluks who really introduced forced assimilation policy
>>215389906>>215389941if it was true, why they never rebelled?
>>215389691Egypt remained MAJORITY christian until the 15th century (600 years after the arap conquest)
>>215389967they rebelled many timesWikipediahttps://en.wikipedia.orgBashmurian revoltsShut the fuck up retarded boomer
>>215389967but they did, many times, for many different reasons.
>>215389691>Btfo old guard>If you join us we will promote you and make you pay less taxes>Hmm okay
>>215389691Read more about it and it'll become less mysterious. Egyptian Christians, for a start, were already at odds with Byzantines over religious differences and some were persecuted or even executed over christological disagreements. Sassanids had a caste system and Muslims offered better social mobility for those at the bottom. Plus, Persian culture massively influenced Islamic, Arabic and later Turkish culture, it wasn't just erased and forgotted just like Roman culture wasn't erased by Christianity. Byzantines and Sassanids were two empire with lots of stability problems that then decided to try wipe each other out. Arabic conquest really isn't much of a surprise.Alternatively, take a look at Dalmatia. Byzantines literally signed it off to Croats for nothing, no war. They just went "fuck it, let them have it", de facto at first, de jure later. Byzantines were generally shit at empire management and their ability to influence anything outside of Constantinople just declined and declined.
>>215389691Christianity is not native to egypt, Christcuck
>>215390017>Bashmurian revoltsmust have been something small and insignificant if memory about it was preserved only in some sparse arab sources and it wasn't even noted in Europe, and most importantly - that it failed despite Egypt being seemingly very rich, advanced and populous comparing to Arab invaders.
>>215390243Neither is Hinduism to India, your point? Every religion was founded at some point in time.
>"And then he told me that Sassanid Persia was the greatest empire on Earth!"
>>215389507think they were both exhaustedthe romans and persians that ismuslims just gave them the final blow
>>215390330Seems kinda obvious he's some sort of Islamojeet, they also say the same about the Byzantines.
>>215389894>Jeet follows the Mossad twitter accountThe jokes write themselves
>tfw you'd like to see a quality miniseries about the expansion of the rashidun caliphate. but you also know that whoever made it would fuck it up, anyway.
>>215389569Sent that jeet back to the shitting street
>>215389691God’s chosen
