Mosul Atabeylik: The Zengids (Mosul Branch 1146-1233)

Summary:

The Mosul Atabeylik was a Turkish-Muslim state that ruled Mosul from 1146 to 1233. Founded by the Zengid dynasty, it was led by Nureddin Mahmud Zengi after the death of Imadeddin Zengi. The Zengids became a significant military force during the Crusades, successfully defending against the Crusaders. After Nureddin's death, the state weakened and faced internal strife. In 1233, the Mosul Atabeylik was conquered by the Ayyubids, marking the end of its rule. This period played a crucial military and political role in the Islamic world.
