Lakhmidsball was a historical Arab countryball that served as buffer state client state of 
Sassanidsball. He fought along Sassanidsball in the Roman-Persian Wars.
History
Lakhmidsball were initially a branch of 
Tanukhidsball, who descended from the Abgarids of Northern Mesopotamia, the same who used to rule 
Osroeneball. Lakhmidsball established a kingdom in central 
Iraqball, with its capital in Al-Hiraball, and ruled it for three centuries circa 300-600 AD. In effect they replaced ancient Arab kingdoms in the region such as the Kingdom of Arabahball.
It acted as a buffer zone between Sassanidball and Arabian tribes that frequently raided its clay. Lakhmidsball was a client state of Sassanidball hence he was a participant in the Roman-Persian Wars.
Like other Arabballs of his time, Lakhmidsball had converted to 
Christianity, adopting 
Nestorianism, a non-Chalcedonian Christian branch, which didn't affect its relationship with Sassanidball. Lakhmidsball expanded then the Nestorian Church of the East throghout Eastern Arabian Peninsula.
Lakhmidsball was annexed by Sassanidball because the Lakhmid king wouldn't let Sassanid Shah Khosrow II marry his daughter. This led to Lakhmidball's allies in Arabia defeating Sassanidball at the Battle of Dhu Nuwas. The buffer state between the Arab tribes and Sassanidball was gone, which was one of the factors contributing to the Muslim Conquest of Persia.
Islamic Conquest
Having had their kingdom annexed by Sassanidball, many Lakhmidsball allied with 
Byzantineball and 
Ghassanidsball, their former enemies, during the early Islamic conquests, as both followed Christianity. Some Lakhmidsball in the Arabian Peninsula converted to 
Islam early on however.
Later on, Lakhmidsball supported 
Umayyadball against Ali, the last Calihp of 
Rashidunball. They suppressed anti- Umayyadball rebels in the Hejaz, in present-day 
Saudi Arabiaball, as well as forming the tribal soldiery of the Jund Filastin district of the Caliphate, in 
Palestineball.
Descendants of Lakhmidsball later reigned under 
Taifa of Sevilleball after the fall of Caliphate of Córdobaball. Today, their ancestors can be found in Iraqball, 
Omanball and 
UAEball, as well as 
Lebanonball among 
Druzeballs.
