History
Islamic Conquest and Early History
The area where Salamat is now established was pretty quiet and there were only some nomad tribes living there. In 685 CE, General Ghali Ibn Karim ordered his troops to explore further up north-east to the actual Anchor Lake and conquer those lands. The first soldiers arrived in ~689 CE, and started converting the local tribes to Islam, with little resistance from the tribes against conversion. The Anchor Island was uninhabited at that time and was conquered in 712 CE. Over time, it was starting to get inhabited by the Arabs and they eventually created the Ankur Caliphate in 770 CE, which was a vassal state of a much bigger Arabic Caliphate. The Caliphate's capital was Hayyum, on the west coast of the Anchor Island and it was home to many Arab astronomers of the 9th, 10th and 11th century. The Ankur Caliphate was annexed by the Arabic Caliphate in 1296 CE.
Salimid Caliphate
The Salimid Caliphate was established in ~1445 CE, with the first ruler being Ahmad I. The Caliphate was a marking point in the Salamati history, for creating and developing infrastructures like ports and cities, establishing trade routes and boosting the economy. The Salimid Caliphate had numerous capitals, including Dar Al Hamma (1445-1587/1802-1820), Ghafun (1587-1644), Asal (1644-1696), Douara (1696-1738) and Ankur (1738-1802). These cities benefitted from special treatment and better infrastructures than the other major cities that weren't capitals. The Salimid Caliphate counts a total of 38 caliphs from the foundation to the collapse of the Caliphate. The most famous is Khaliq III (1495-1567/Reign from 1540-1563), who boosted the Salimid economy by opening new trade routes and developing the cotton industry, and led a great war against some Christian insurgents in 1556, which he won. This war permitted him to gain more popularity from the people, but fearing fanatism, jealousy and abandonment of Islam for a special cult dedicated to him made him step down from the throne in April 1563. He died 4 years later. Another famous caliph was Tariq I (1549-1616/Reign from 1599-1615), particularly known for his massacres and deportations, the most famous being the eradication of the Khaliwi Tribe in June-September 1605, after resisting against the authorities who tried to exploit them to farm cotton. As a result, the tribe was erased in a little less than 3 months. He also ordered the eradication of 4 other tribes who also refused to farm cotton for a total of 180,000 dead people under his reign. Tariq I lost his post of Caliph in February 1615, was judged in June of the same year and condemned to the death penalty as a result of his exactions. He was executed on January 26th 1616. The Caliphate collapsed in 1820 CE, due to lack of trade routes, an aging infrastructure and bad life quality. A big economic crisis in 1818 was the match who set the whole forest in fire ; people were also starving due to the redirection of resources to the elite first.
