Anna the Arabian conquest of Persia in A. D. 641, Arabian gov Porch smora were appointed in the conquered country, and colonies from the 23313 burning sands of Arabia spread over the cold regions of Khorassan and Balkh. These colonies ?ourished in the soil to which they were transplanted. As before remarked, Persia remained under the dominion of the Khalifs for more than two centuries, during which the Persian people became Mohammedans. Persian history during this period is to be found in the history of the Moslem conquerors of the country, and even there it occupies a small and unimportant space. The only events of consequence are petty revolts of insubordinate governors, who attempted to erect their provinces into hereditary principalities when the power of the Khalifs declined.
