Medieval Egypt
After the Islamic conquest in 639, Lower Egypt came under the governance of governors who acted on behalf of the Rashidun Caliphs and later the Umayyad Caliphs in Damascus. However, in 747, the Umayyads were ousted from power. During the Islamic rule, Askar was designated as the capital and served as the administrative center. The conquest resulted in the formation of two separate provinces, Upper and Lower Egypt, which were governed by the military and adhered to the directives issued by the governor of Egypt and the leaders of their respective communities. Egypt experienced a series of dynastic rule following the establishment of Islamic control in 639, lasting until the early 16th century. The Umayyad period, spanning from 658 to 750, marked an important phase in Egypt's history. Subsequently, the Abbasid period emerged, characterized by a greater emphasis on taxation and the consolidation of power. In 868, the Tulunids, led by Ahmad ibn Tulun, expanded Egypt's territorial influence into the Levant. Ahmad ibn Tulun's reign persisted until his demise in 884, after which his successor faced significant challenges, leading to a defection of many citizens back to the Abbasids. Consequently, in 904, the Abbasids regained control from the Tulunids.
