Iraqball, officially the Republic of Iraqball, is a rock a civil war countryball in the Middle East. He is bordered by Turkeyball to the North,
Saudi Arabiaball to the South and Southwest,
Syriaball to the West, along with
Jordanball to the Southwest, and
Iranball to the East, with
Kuwaitball to the Southeast. The country is divided into nineteen Governorates. Altogether, however, he has a total area of 168,754 square miles, making him the 58th largest country in the world. As of 2018, he maintains a population of 38.12 million inhabitants.
Iraqball is a member of the Arab Leagueball and the
OICball due to being a majority-Kebab country in the Arabian Peninsula, as well as the
UNball like almost every other country.
Iraqball is sometimes seen as the cradle of civilization as his clay was once home to Mesopotamia, an ancient civilization situated between the Tigris-Euphrates river. However, due to large amounts of conquests from more powerful countryballs (Such as Persiaball and
Macedonball, and
British Empireball), along with the ongoing conflict he's dealing with, it is very hard for people to believe it. He is more often seen as one of the worst countryballs in the
world to live in, which has led to many Iraqiballs seeking refuge in
USAball and
Europe.
His national day is October 3.
History
Iraqball is situated on the Tigris-Euphrates river system which is where the ancient civilization of Mesopotamia emerged. Sumerian, Akkadian, Babylonian, and Assyrian civilizations would be located in Iraqball. Mesopotamia would come under Persian rule, then came under
Greek rule, then would be fought over between
Romans and
Persians until the
Muslim conquests of the 7th century.
Abbasidball took over all of
Umayyadball's clay (expect Spain) in the 750 thanks to the persian general Abu Muslim.
Abbasidball had unsuccessfully tried to push out
Byzantine Empireball out of the Middle East, but had many won battles.
The first Abbasid caliph, as-Saffa, gave a sermon to justify the newly proclaimed caliphate. He said in it, that "the Abbasids were the kin of God's messenger" and created "from the ancestors of the Prophet Muhammad's family tree." The second caliph, al-Mansoor, began the construction of a new capital in Iraq, on the site of Baghdad, on the banks of the Tigris River. He created a wonderful round city with high walls added; and it was surrounded with four gates. It was a symbol centralizing the power in the hands of the caliph.
The fifth caliph, Harun ar-Rashid, grandson of al-Mansoor, is often regarded as the greatest of the Abbasid caliphs. He built the House of Wisdom, which was a beacon of Islamic learning. It was based on the saying by the Prophet Muhammad "The ink of a scholar is more holy than the blood of a martyr." He therefore launched a new golden age of science. Many Islamic scholars, such as al-Khwarizmi, ibn Al-Haytham, al-Sufi, ibn Sina, and ibn Rushd have inspired many scientists throughout the world.
Sadly, the last 300 years were not so successful. Of the 12 caliphs who ruled between 860 and 934, half were murdered. It eventually got worse whenthe calph Mustaqfi at some point, Abbasidball was forced to hand all its clay to Buyidball, in order to hold on to the caliphate. Other land-hungry dynastyballs got parts of the rapidly disintegrating caliphate
Seljukball came on the rescue and removed Buyidball. However
Abbasidball poisned his sultan so
Seljukball anchlussed his clay before regaining independence.
Baghdadball would become the center of the Islamic golden age with very well known books until the
Mongols invaded and besieged
Baghdadball in 1258, burning all the important advanced sources of islamic history. The cityball would never feel the same again.
After most of the city had been mercilessly burned down, Iraq would become a province of Ilkhanateball which he would cross though to attack
Mamlukball. But After Ilkhanateball got sick and died from the black plague, Iraq's clay would be ruled by the Ilkhan persianized son of
Jalayiridsball who wanted to resurrect part of
Abbasidball before he was slained by the emerging
Timurid Empireball.
Jalayiridsball became Timur's
slave province and would be later liberated by the Turkic Qara Qoyunluball until he became unfriendly who took his clay and occupied it like his brother Aq Qoyunluball for the rest of the 15th century. In the 1500's
Safavid Dynastyball conquered and ruled over what was the defunct Aq Qounlu and Timurid Empire restoring Persian control over Iraq. The neighboring
Ottoman Empireball didn't want the middle east to be dominant Shia and that Shia beliefs would take over Anatolia, so around the 1530's he occupied Iraq as a buffer zone for the rest of 16th century.
The Ottoman-Persian wars really shaped Ottoman society in Iraq. Safavid Dynastyball fought over control of its Islamic holy sites including the capital and even sieged Iraqball control before
Kebab recaptured it. Iraqball's new occupier
Ottoman Empireball elected sultans to rule over the area and put down some
Kurdish revolts. The self-governing sultans took a much slower time to modernize the country.
Before World War I, British Empireball colonized neighboring
Kuwaitball. When the Ottomans joined the war against the Entente, Britain declared war on
Ottoman Empireball and invaded through Kuwait. Due to Arab resistance against the Ottomans, Ottomanball was partitioned by British Empireball and
British Iraqball would be dominated by the
British until the formation of the independent
Kingdom of Iraqball in 1932 (Which would be a British puppet state from 1941-1947). Under british rule,
Kingdom of Iraqball King Ghazi wanted to into sea to become a stronk power, but
UKball wouldn't let him annex
Kuwait.
But someday.....
King ghazi later would die in a car crash,allowing king faisal the second to take over,In April 1941, the Iraqi king Abd al-Ilah was overthrown by the
Golden Square which replaced him with Rashid Ali al-Gaylani, who made Iraqball align to
the axis. As a result,
UKball had to invade Iraq again a month later and just SIGHED at
Iraqball.
Being one of the Arab countries to be defeated by Israelcube in the Six Days War,
Iraqball once had the curious idea to merge with
Jordanball and become a stronk power since they were both Hashemites. This became the
Arab Federationball, but it failed because
Iraqball came to be in 1958,iraqball also did some horrifying things after winning the July 14 revoultion such as hanging the kings body on a roof and executing the rest of the royal family,after that he decided to become a "republic". He was actually a single-party military junta.
The kurds in it's clay tried to gain independence, but with the help of
Syriaball,
Iraqball tried to remove them, but like Syriaball it would be couped by
Ba'athists. Four years later,
took power ending the previous Iraqi Republicball.
Iraqball became under Ba'ath rule but was still a single-party military dictatorship.
He then declared war on Iranball in 1980 to "liberate"
Khuzestanball. Because he couldn't pay debts to
Kuwaitball he declared war on its in 1990 still claiming that
UKball stole
Kuwaitball from him in colonial times and that
Kuwaitball was stealing Iraqi oil. He failed because the
USAball-led coalition stopped him from anschlussing
Kuwaitball in the Gulf War. Then in 2003 being one again invaded by
USAball, with the intention of "liberating" Iraq from
Saddam's control, as
accused Saddamn of supporting
Al-Qaedaball in the 9/11 attack. (In reality it was to secure US interests in Iraq.)
USAball tried to remove many terrorists and
Ba'ath loyalists in Iraqi clay, hence, this immensely led to a war which saw
Al-Qaeda set up
its puppet to conquer Iraqball's clay, which failed.
USAball pulled out in 2011 but ended up in even worse condition. He is now technically friends with
USAball, but that doesn't matter much. The new government by the way, recongized
Kurdish autonomy. Things got worse when
ISISball broke off from
Al-Qaedaball.
Before, 15% is sieged by Kurdistanball. Recently,
ISISball in western Mosul was on the offensive as his forces advance capturing one of its dams. But now, he succeeded to take the whole of Mosul from ISIS. He also recaptured Tal-Afar and was now invading Hawija and he won [1]. His final campaign was his Western Iraq Campaign, and he liberated the desert on December 9th, ending
ISISball in Iraqball. On December 10th, Iraqball celebrated the end of
ISISball with a parade.
In the 1st of October 2019, Major protests started in Iraqball due to the major corruption of the leaders in Iraqball and the influence of Iranball in Iraqball.
2020 does not seem the best year for Iraqball, one of his generals got killed in an airstrike by
USAball which caused Iraqball to make a vote to remove American soldiers from his clay.
In February 2020, Iraqball had its first infection of coronavirus which caused it to close many of its borders and schools.
