Rejection of Dogma
The Middle East region in human history has been one of the most storied and important. From being a Holy Ground for multiple religions, to a highly valued trade route of the Silk Road, to it's Rich deposit of fossil fuels, the region has been fought over for millennia.

Since the European Powers left the region following the Second World War and mapping the region, the area has been a hot bed of violence, dogmatic thinking, and extremism. A unknown scholar of the region looked back to the golden age of Islam, seeing its thirst for advancement in science and art, being the leaders when Europe had fallen following the fall of the Roman Empire. He saw how the people were stuck in the past while the rest of the world moved forward.

The Scholar reformed a new version of Islam, a version that removed the dogmatic thinking that has torn the Middle East apart, putting a emphasis of Humanism and a thirst for knowledge to the forefront. The new Islam gained traction quickly as the common people over centuries of conflict have grown tired of the status quo of violence and extremism. They revolted, aiming to restore stability to the region that has been lost for so long. A civil war broke out all over the Islamic world, Government forces that were at the whims of the extremists were now reinforced by the common folk. Like many revolutions, the common people united in overwhelming numbers overwhelm the power holders of the extremists. With a unified new Islamic region and dangerous neighbors surrounding the region, new Islam was united under one state, founded on the new ideology. The Middle East is once more united for the first time since the Ottoman Empire.
